weekend

[vernacular_life]

Weekend was pretty uneventful - ate well (Such yummy green curry chicken), enjoyed a good Redskins win, watched Willy Wonka w/ Mr Depp (highly amused!) went to a friends baby shower (nice, understated, friendly).  I don't even remember Friday night.  And I'm not even drinking!!

FINALLY decided on baby furniture -- will get the chest o' drawers, desk and night stand in my originally prefered style.  I'll keep the hutch off of the desk until its needed.  I'm sick of worrying how long it will last...heck, my luck, the kid will be a terror and destroy it in 5 years anyway, and its better to destroy something cheap than solid maple, right???  I'll probably order everything in late Jan, because my luck, the order will come in when we're in Mexico and it will sit outside for a week in the rain.

Now, on to better things, like vacation planning.......primarily, what's the best way to get from Cancun airport to my hotel?  ami_tutti, any suggestions?  I got a quote for a private van round trip transfer for $85 -- is it worth it to avoid the bus/van that stops everywhere for $40?

Nice furniture. :) Where are you getting it from?

I know nothing about Cancun but I hope you have fun. :)

I'm going to order it from Furniturebuzz.com -- we got our tv stand from there and had pretty good service -- about 2-3 weeks shipping.

2-3wks isn't bad at all. :)

its not really worth the extra money IMO, I have done the other and it doesnt take much more time (unless you are staying at the end of the strip of hotels)

I think we're on the north end of most of the places -- hopefully, the first stop!
