From Ruby on Rails to Cake April Vocabulary Words

There are a lot of things we said we’d do on our mini-vacation that we didn’t do:

  • We didn’t walk on the beach.  It was cold, snowy, rainy, hail-y in rotating succession, with wind the only constant.
  • We didn’t work out.  The fitness room was adequate and I stepped foot in it exactly once, just to see what it had.  The pool and whirlpool spa, however, we used quite a bit.
  • We didn’t eat healthy.  Lots of yummy, delicious, butter-soaked food washed down with copious amounts of various types of alcohol.
  • We didn’t go to bed early and get lots of quality sleep.  There was a great band in the lounge that we listened to until last call each night.

Then there are the things I didn’t do, that I said I wouldn’t do.  More success with those:

  • I didn’t connect to the internet in any way for four days.  In fact, I didn’t even turn on my computer until this morning even though I got back yesterday afternoon.  The closest I got to a computer was calling for the pass reports before heading home.  The DH checked in once and checked his voice mail regularly.
  • We didn’t try to make a schedule.  Very disorienting not knowing what we were going to do at any point.

The only problem I ran into?  Four days was about ten days too short.
