My bags are packed...
I am all packed and very excited about going to California for the American Association of Cancer Research conference!!! I am taking a 6 am flight Thursday morning. Steph is coming in on Friday with Tiptoe and Tex, and Friday night we'll meet Joe and Christine for dinner!! I am taking my little laptop and my camera. I remembered to pack all the wires, so I'll be able to post pictures and updates on the weeks events. I'll be arriving a day early so I can sit by the (heated) pool and get a little Cali sun (got sunscreen). I know it will only be around 75, but that is so much better than the chilly days we've been having here on Long Island as of yet (I hear it'll be heating up as I board the plane - lol). I bought a new bathing suit and am thrilled to be 50 lb lighter than the last time I bought a bathing suit. I am staying 2 extra days after the conference to visit with my best friend from elementary school. I would like to thank Joe, Christine and all at the Her2 site this opportunity. Also, thanks to Bill - you know why!!! Oh - how cool is this??? My dearest best friend Liz is taking her daughter to Florida. She is leaving tomorrow morning...same airport...same time...same flight!!! we'll be together the first part of the trip and for the 2 hour layover in Atlanta. Then she and her daughter will go on to Disney, and I'll go on to Cali. Neither of us realized we booked the same early morning flight until just 2 days ago - lol. Goodnight, goodnight to all. Got to get up early...Love to all...
