Planning a break: golden weekend coming in 2 weeks

I am going to use this post to brainstorm ideas for my golden weekend. Its 22-23rd.

Not sure if we can get my parents to watch the baby, but that would be ideal if they were cool with it. I'll just to be brave and ask.

If so, the sky is the limit as far as what we can do. We've got Southwest Airlines passes and it would be great to head for the beach or the mountains.

If we have to stay around here, I would love to go sailing. If we have to bring the child (not a horrible thing by any measure), there is the zoo. Also, we've been doing a bit of renovating and we could get some more stuff from Ikea.

The babe and hubby are headed to Minnesota next weekend. I will finally have a weekend day off and they won't even be here. I can't begin to express how lonely it is without them. My med school buddies are off at programs in other cities and my resident buddies are working. So that leaves my non-medical friends... That or I am going to shop up a storm. Maybe I'll see if I can get some help cleaning our place.
