a brief separation

this little view is one of the biggest downsides of dating or being engaged/married to someone in minor league baseball....ugh. but, this time for us it was so different because instead of saying, "see you in a few months." we got to say, "see you in a few weeks." oh yeah, after two seasons of living lives 3,000 miles apart, this year i'm coming and he gets to deal with me all year long now, you lucky man you!

but alas, for the first three weeks i'll be in CA while he's in FL. and let me tell you, i didn't realize how much free time there was before marriage! (enter a chorus of 'duuhhhh ashley') so i'm taking advantage of that while he's gone, which consists a lot of seeing friends i'll miss dearly and watching a lot of gilmore girls while not making any dinner (don't judge, we have a lot of yogurt that needs to be eaten by next wednesday!)

but this pretty little view above is how cody wanted to spend his last night in california foorreeevvveerrrrr (kidding, but possibly we could just not move back and stay in FL all year, more on that at a later date) how do you spend your last day in CA? simply like this:

-try out an amazing little coffee shop in your town you've talked about for months
(Bear Coast coffee in San Clemente, get it to go and walk up and down Del Mar, ahhhhhmazing)
-make waffles for a late breakfast
-do laundry
(now aren't we exciting?)
-eat at in-n-out
(per cody's request, i might be one of the few who doesn't really care for it...but i do admit, they're the only one's who really nailed down a lettuce wrap)
-walk to the beach and down to the pier from your little studio to watch the sunset over catalina island
(sigh, i'm going to miss this place)
-pack up all your clothes in two suitcases
(yes, he fit ALL of his clothes, including shoes and various other things into a duffel bag and a medium suitcase, more power to ya, sorry my clothes take up your entire car....)

if you've never been to san clemente, you're really missing out, it has to be one of the most amazing and quaint beach towns in the world....i only was born and raised there, it's i'm not biased or anything....

so, anyway, the next few weeks i'm just chillin' husbandless and having to make my own coffee in the morning, which is the living worst....
