T minus 17 days and counting

Before I blow this joint for Tijuana.

Or, at least that is the ETA.  It may happen a little earlier.

For a lot of reasons, I am looking forward to the trip.  Much as I like the Coachella Valley, it has hit the point where I could use the change of scene.  I'm also looking forward to attending not one but two Pride events.  One of them, I will definitely be dateless, which should make LA Pride fun.

I am also going to Tijuana Pride.  THAT should be interesting, because it will be on what would have been Rick's 76th birthday.  The other interesting part is that it will be after Shavuot - when I get to be something resembling an eligible bachelor.  And I may have a date lined up.  AND if that doesn't work, I met a guy who could also serve as my date.

So, I have things to look forward to - and I will get about 300 Amtrak points.  BONUS.
