Only the lonely

The husband is in California (officially, he called to let me know he'd crossed the stateline--jackass).

I am not.

What do you do when you're an unemployed top of your class with honors and excessive work experience recent graduate?

You drive to California to visit family and eat yummy food, of course.

And leave your road trip loving wife at home. With the dogs. And the cat.

We'll be lucky if we still have pets when he gets back. They're full on driving me insane. They hate me. They only behave for him.

Example? The beagle hid from me under (literally) laundry for a good 15 minutes this morning. Making me late to work. Oh, and treats and toy bribery are lost on this one. She's a handful.

It's going to be a long week.

Wish me luck.

What? He went home without you? That's a double-whammy on our usual home-state-sickness. Boo on vacationing husbands & naughty puppies!
