Average Jane On Her Own

My husband is leaving today for Los Angeles to go to the NAMM show.  Even though he's been a professional musician for years, he still geeks out over events like this.  He and I went to a couple of NAMM shows in Nashville years ago, and he still has the photos and autographs in the studio.  I'm sure he'll have a fantastic time at the BIG show they have in Anaheim.  I don't think he's ever been to one there.

While he's gone, I'll have to think of ways to entertain myself.  Tonight I have a club meeting and I've been trying to schedule a dinner with a friend tomorrow night.  I'm attending an industry awards show on Friday night and there's also a roller derby party that evening.  On Saturday evening there's band practice.  I guess my entertainment is pretty well covered after all.

The hardest thing to do while my husband is gone is resist the temptation to let the cats sleep with me.  They've been banned from the bedroom for quite some time now, but I tend to weaken when it's just me.  I'm always immediately sorry after a night of being walked on, having my fingers gnawed, etc.

I'm glad my husband gets to go do something he'll really enjoy.  I've been on several fun trips in the past year or so, but he hasn't been anywhere lately.  I have BlogHer coming up in July, but maybe he and I can think of a fun weekend trip we can take together before that.  Any suggestions?

I'll admit that I do like having the kid sleep with me since my husband is gone so much. I feel better now that you've admitted wanting to let the cats in. :-)

Trips? Assuming driving trips, have you done northern Arkansas, such as Eureka Springs?

Go back to Nashville and tell me what you would think about living there! We have tentative plans to go there this fall since that is where I am targeting moving. We'll see if and when that pans out.

Huts - I've been to Nashville several times and my husband lived there for a decade. I think it's safe to say that the only reason we never moved there is that I have family nearby where I live now. We would definitely move there under other circumstances.
