Back to reality.

Ug.

Another walk to the subway this morning in the pouring rain, another wet and soggy subway ride to work in a dirty, wet subway car. And I forgot to bring a plastic shopping bag to dump my wet umbrella in once I got inside the subway. This sounds like a minor thing, but oh, you have no idea how much easier life is when you are not juggling a wet umbrella on the subway. I think I need a Montreal moment...



Ahh...much better. I still have some shreds of my post-vacation high left, which are sure to be completely evaporated by Wednesday, possibly Thursday if I'm lucky. I'm kind of annoyed about the fact I had my performance appraisal at work before I went on vacation, and still have not found out what my raise will be...Quick! Montreal moment:


Whew. That was close. Anytime I start to talk about work on here is not a good sign. Anyway...Kerry will be swinging back through NYC at the end of this week, so I'm looking forward to hanging out with her again and drinking delicious cold vodka tonics at my house and celebrating the fact that there will be only three weeks until my next vacation - this time up to NH with G to see the fam and also a spell in Providence at G's, no doubt spent imagining how we could build a sleeping/work loft in his condo so I could move in.

And one more Montreal moment before I go to bed:


Here are some beautiful, delicious chocolates from Les Chocolates De Chloe. A sea salt flanked by two fig and balsamic, which were absolutely amazing.

Sweet dreams...
