well i am off to the grand lake colorado for a 4 day retreat at the shadowcliff lodge. it is the 1st getaway i have had since last october. i hope it's restful. i definitely need to get outta dodge.
i will be staying with a host of others at the hiv retreat. since the late
80's, the lodge has hosted hiv retreats. the owners lost their son to aids and began the tradition and a colleague took over the management of such a couple of years ago. personally, i am thankful to them all.
previously, i had mentioned that i had been offered some contract work and financial support from the state to publish the newsletter. well, it also would include supporting 2 or 3 of these retreats next summer as well as the monthly educational forums. sometimes i wonder how i landed here. so i guess i need to experience it if i am going to truly understand what i am helping to promote and support.
3 work-industry colleagues as well as a guy i dated for a very short time are going to be there. i am hoping boundaries will apply with all of these characters. or at least me.
but today, i am more focused on getting away and chillin'. i'm taking the laptop, but am not sure about posting.
ps. the post title is from a playlist i love from a canadian dj- his name is nick. you can download his work at his site. here's one of my favorite road trip grooves of the last few years (it's at least 10 years old or so, but i still love it)... here's to the weekend! kiss kiss in the rearview

You're perfect for a retreat. Though I'm hoping, for you sake, over the next year, that boundaires don't apply so often.
Enjoy yourself. You deserve it!
