NO I'M NOT ENGAGED. (And no John and I aren't dating, either. I just realized what putting a tiffany's box might do to the hearts of my dear readers.) The real story is....I haven't written too much about my clinicals (which is really kind of sad). I have been working with a great NP who does only gynecology and she is absolutely fabulous. Really, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She has taught me so much, and the preceptors who help us out at ASU do not get paid. Last week was our last day together, and to thank her, I put together the coolest gift basket I have maybe ever (and I really really can't believe I didn't take a picture). It included a massage at a great spa, some earrings, some cute little juice glasses with her initials on them, some other little random things, and a gift certificate to Tiffany's. All her jewelry is from there, and even though the gift certificate really could only buy half of anything, it was so fun to buy a little blue box from there. It felt so so fun.
When I gave it to her, she thanked me, and then handed me the keys to her condo in San Diego. I was in shock. That was not what I had expected. But...it was appreciated. There are so many cool places to stay in San Diego, and I knew so little about the town, that I hadn't even booked our hotels yet. So this was awesome.
We rented us a cute little red Nissan Sentra, I got a smoothie (carbs reserved for vacation), and we headed out.
We didn't get in until about 9pm, but we slept like rocks. The condo was very beachy and very blue (she loves dolphins and all that stuff). The master bathroom felt so so gloriously spacious, and the bed was wonderful. We slept with the windows open every night while the ocean breeze (about 40 degrees cooler than AZ) made everything perfect.
The condo was on Imperial Beach, which is about 3 seconds from Mexico, which is crazy. The beach was nice, and we had a great lunch of halibut tacos on the pier. I managed to get a little sunburn in about an hour and a half....proof that I need to get outside more often!

Blue and loving fish was an understatement. Looking at these pictures made me want to sing the theme song to Free Willy in my head. Just saying.
I love you. "Three seconds from Mexico". I love you.
You and your mama look so cute. I am sure you guys had a blast on your girls weekend.
