contingency plan

i'm sure that some of you know that i'm going back to las vegas this weekend because i really need to go somewhere warm(er than here) and las vegas is my closest driving option. if you didn't know i was going back, surprise! shawn is working on getting us some tickets to a show tomorrow night, which will be totally awesome if he can. but i believe in the boy scout motto: be prepared. so in case that falls through, i have a contingency plan: death valley. because, really, what could be more appropriate for two single girls to do on valentine's day. i'm not saying we have a death wish or anything. i hear it's quite nice there this time of year. i'm just saying the polar opposite of valentine's day is someplace that has absolutely nothing to do with valentine's day. i think death valley is pretty nearly it. and it's only 2 hours from henderson, which makes it completely day trip-able. while i'm busily emptying my trunk just so i can fill it up again, i'm working out the details in my head. julia's on board for it. i think it just might work. . . stay tuned to find out what happened.
