I'm soooo jealous:

The Obamas take off for the Aloha State Saturday, where they'll be spending the week with family.

And/But: The president-elect won't really be on vacation. He'll continue to do transition work during his stay.

If anyone deserves time off, it's Barack Obama.

Why am I suddenly in the mood for tiny paper umbrellas, sashimi, lots of vowels, and sweet floral fragrances?
