Vacation!!

I have to exercise today. And do laundry. And pack for my trip up to San Francisco.

I'm heading to the city for the next few days to see Wagner's Ring Cycle at San Francisco Opera. And hang in the Castro. Eat and sleep and be waited on in a nice hotel. And generally just relax and have fun!

And for one whole week, I'm not going to write. This is the first time I've taken several days off in the middle of a book. It'll be good to have the luxury of clearing out my head before I charge into the home stretch.

So take care, everyone! I'll see you back here next week. :)
