Back up, pervs

I think I need to clarify what I did last weekend, for many of you appeared confused.

Or just way too excited.

I am in a grad program to become a marriage and family therapist.  North Carolina had their state-wide conference and the subject matter just happened to be sex therapy.

This means sexual health, people.

Now, take a minute to grieve your loss of what you thought I was doing.

Go ahead.  I'll grab a Pop-Tart.









We cool?

Swell.

Anyway, the conference was absolutely brilliant.  I got to wear heals and scarves (which equals wicked hot, by the way), I had unlimited coffee at my disposal and I was served cake.  Twice.

I got to visit the local SuperTarget and pay my respects. 

Unfortunately, at that point I was so unbelievably uncomfortable due to the sheer quantity of food I had consumed that I could only wander the aisles in wonder for about 20 minutes before I needed to curl up in the fetal position next to a toilet and do yoga breathing.

It was most excellent.

On another note, I will be leaving for Hong Kong in approximately 32 hours.

I'll have a couple of scheduled posts, but I won't be back to play with you all for well over a week.

Don't judge me.

So, you may find yourself thinking, "Damn it, Sara!  Where are you?"

Allow me to refer you to some gorgeous pictures I located using the world wide interweb:

 

  

  

That, my friends, is one of my great weaknesss.
Food on a stick.

I'll be double-fisting octopus balls as I peruse the streets of Kowloon with Sonya.

You heard me.

Marriage and family therapist? That is a career that will always be needed!!! Glad you had a good time at your conference, enjoy your trip!

Cathy said...

You're going to have sooo much fun! Totally jealous. Eat lots of balls please.

Somehow it seems very fitting that food on a stick is one of your weaknesses. I can't say why really, it just is.

Have a swell time in Hong Kong, friend.

Macey said...

You said balls...giggle.
Will you send me some balls?
I'm jealous, I will miss you. Have fun. Hurry back. :)

Take good pictures and don't get stolen for your baby-making potential......;)

Wowsa! My sister lives in Hong Kong- I don't know how she does it ... flying into that airport is a totall trip! Have fun.

Well if you're going to double-fist balls, it shouldn't be octopus. I mean, you have to have SOME standards. I hope you have a WONDERFUL time on your trip and you get to discuss your sex conference with no less than 27 people in the various airports. And I hope that you and Sonya managed to stay out of the Hong Kong prison. Remember, very little is illegal in Hong Kong, but you have a knack for finding that one thing. I can't wait for stories and pictures! Be safe and refrain from booking massages. Unless you need to attend to your own sexual health...

see i totally figured you were going to a convention on the newest and best sex toys or something. thanks for clearing it up. but it was more fun my way.
anywho- i am so jealous of your trip- have an awesome time- and eat everything on a stick you can find!

Kay said...

Food on a stick is pretty much food in its most delicious form.

I'm pretty sure it's a scientific fact.

Enjoy your trip!

Yankee Girl said...

I was in grad school to be a marriage and family therapist at one point but I dropped out. It seems I am much happier writing about sex.

Those food pics are making me very hungry!
