Thanks for the congrats, my friends - this is going to be *interesting* -

- flying with my co-winners and Le BigWigs for an overnight/banquet in New Bedford, Mass. on Simon's birthday June 1 - 2. Got to get a haircut and some clothes and borrow some luggage, YIKES. It was insane. I was so tired that I could barely see straight, and they literally had to have me retake my picture, last night, because my eyes were so bloodshot. Horrifying. This is not fun for me, but I am the first night-shifter there to get this - ever - so I gotta represent. Everyone was cheering and hugging me and they literally STUFFED the ballot box because the same little blonde Barbie dolls people get it every year. Hilariously, they had no CHOICE, this year.

We were told, 'What happens in New Bedford, stays in New Bedford.' - and that there will be drinking...REEK, REEK, REEK, REEK!




And yet - all I want to do is hang out and watch these lovely Periscopes of the CureTour!

I was sort of hoping for some monetary award for you but, hey, a free trip and banquet sounds fun. And on Simon's b'day, no less. Must be a good sign.

Again, well-deserved congratulations to you, my dear!!

Congrats! It would be nice if the award came with, say, a bonus or even a raise. But, a little vacation isn't too bad. I have no idea if you've ever been to New Bedford, but it's actually pretty nice! If you have free time, the Whaling Museum was decent the last time I was there. They do talk about how whaling was, like, environmentally disastrous and a bit about whale conservation. I hope, when you're nice and comfy in your hotel room, you get a good view of some whiteout fog rolling in off the bay.
