Shiny Happy Cupcake

Even though Los Angeles has finally welcomed some sort of semblence of a 'season' (which by the way, I am LOVING- there is something about a little chill in the air during the holidays,) I am feeling all 'shiny, happy people' inside, because after Tuesday, just 48 small hours from now, I will have entered bliss until January 2nd.

To say that I am looking forward to Wednesday, oh glorious 12th day of December, is an understatement. Part of me wants to call this- the 'understatement of the year.' After all, we are coming up on the neverending New Year's countdowns, resolutions and lists, but I'm sure there was another 'understatement' in 2007 more worthy of this title, so I will go on.

Tuesday is my final marquee event before 2008. I love my job, but I am ready for a break.

The thought of not having another HUGE event until, get this, NEXT YEAR, is like licking a big dollop of frosting off a cupcake... 100x over.

I will get to relax. Get organized. Get little Edith hypnotized. Get packed. Get moved. Get out, and get home.

It shall be the most beautiful TWO weeks, more than two weeks, in a long while. And I will pretend that the time I am spending at home = the unbridled euphoric ectasy that eating a cupcake gives me for that one fleeting moment... except it will last for 10 days.

I can't wait.
