Am I the only person who considers it lucky when I get a Reese's Cup that has been double ... cupped? You know, when it has two of those cupcake-like liner thingies? Nevermind. I'm babbling.

My checking account has gotten dangerously low (this is becoming a regular thing for me), so said Reese's Cup is my lunch. I snagged it from my boss's candy bowl, and it's free. It's not the first time his candy bowl has kept me from going hungry. Chocolate and tea will keep me going today.

I didn't get to go to Chicago, but I'm already booked for a few days in Florida with my mom in June. Mom found us a sweet condo on the beach, and I booked the flights this morning. Mom and I are taking Jesse and my niece Alia. She's 11 and has never been to the beach. She and Jesse get along really well, and I'm glad her parents agreed to let her come with us. Mom and I aren't nearly entertaining enough for Jesse, so he's excited about having someone to play with. We're going to New Smyrna Beach this year. Jesse didn't like the Gulf side last year because the water is so calm. We used to go to New Smyrna beach when we were kids with mom and dad, and I remember it being a very nice beach.
