Okay, so this is again going to be a long post. Maybe I just like to talk a lot. So, after all the job related drama (https://myreallifeversion.com/never-have-i-ever-been-laid-off/), I was convinced I needed a celebratory / relaxing trip. I needed to get out and just relax for a few days before […]
