::Desert Sunrise::
I'll be leaving for the land of bright lights and gaudy, sequined, costumes tonight. The best part about leaving while it's dark is that I'll get to see the sunrise over the desert. The sky is so clear so the colors run nothing short of brilliant. It's absolutely beautiful. I wanted to soak it all up the last time I was on my way to Vegas with Brenna and Mike. Too bad I was the one who was driving. The marine layer by my house always makes the sunrise look gray and blah, I haven't seen a decent sunrise since about the end of August. I love watching the sunrise way more than watching the sunset. I don't really know why, but for some reason a feeling of warmth is always evoked while I play the spectator. *sigh* I can't wait.
I don't really care that I'm going to Vegas. Honestly, I would've been just as fine staying home. I see it more as a convenience within an inconvenience. The trip is going to feel so rushed, thus the inconvenience. I need to be back by Friday morning so I can get my second wind before going to work in the afternoon. But hey, the holiday pay will be nice. It's not that different from the last time I went, but I would've liked to take things in a little longer. The convenience part of it all is that I get to see my grandma. She helps keep my head straight just by thinking about her. She's my tiny, filipina, polvoron making, jokester, you're only as old as you think, beacon of hope. It'll also be nice to get some holiday shopping out of the way. I'll be going to Niketown and FAO Schwartz so that there's less for me to order online. I hate paying shipping fees. Too bad the FAO Schwartz in Horton Plaza fell off and closed down. Other than that, I don't really need to see sights again. We'll see what happens.
