trips

i saw today that american airlines has tickets available in august for clint and i to go to puerto rico. because we've never really taken a real trip together anywhere, and because we're thinking about having a baby in the near future, and because clint hasn't been on a lot of vacations, i kind of want us to go. i'd be willing to take on some debt for it and use my tax refund... but, it's the same month as amy's party, which i also really want to go on. this is all providing a nice distraction from grading papers, which i need to get to... i like having something to look forward to... but i'm realizing that i need to quit being so spoiled about things... i really feel like i should/want to go to amy's party... and i also feel that a trip would be good for clint and i. i'd like to have both, and i wish i could use all the free tickets i have, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. it would be hard to pay for both trips. we'll see what clint thinks... i want him to be happy. i need to put more emphasis on that. so that's what i'm doing...
