So yesterday, when it was cold and crappy and rained all day, I formulated a plan. I have a lot of vacation time, and I was thinking I'd just find a spot on the calendar where I had a few free days together, and take some time off and go somewhere warm. Nothing big, just go hang out somewhere warm and pleasant for a few days.

Examining the calendar, however, I discover that I will not have enough free days in a row to go anywhere until well after the point of the year at which it will begin to be warm *here*. Gah. Seriously.

I'm still thinking I might take a day or two off from work some time in the next few weeks, though. Can't really go anywhere, but maybe just being off from work would be good.

if you need a change of scenery

you are always welcome to my couch and theoretically (after a 15-20 minute walk (a pleasant one), i'm near public transportation to downtown b-more. or you could remain on the couch and my dog would simply sit next to you and asked to be petted periodically. anyway... just an offer. sometimes there are cheap deals between kc and here... do with this as you wish. =)

I have heard rumors that this is true. Let me know what it's like, eh? :)

We've already established that it's dangerous for me to take time off -- you never know where I'll end up or when I'll come back. And the Bosses hate that.

Time off, even if spent at home, is good time off. Especially if you haven't had a good break from work.

It's kind of amazing how much can be packed into a four-day weekend ... know anybody in Texas or that-a-way to go visit?

The OCP rather enjoyed her trip to the warmer climate of SC, there and back in four days.

Be creative :-) You're great at it.

In the meantime......

Wil Wheaton has a picture of a cutlass battle on top of a giant steampunk robot (http://syndicated.livejournal.com/wilwheaton/476879.html?style=mine).

Well, who doesn't love that? Also, Wil Wheaton gets cooler all the time. :)

He's an amazingly cool geek who plays poker, and is very much down-to-earth, run-of-the-mill, drink-a-beer-with-you-at-the-pub kind of guy.

Which is 3 of the many reasons I like the guy, in that adoring fan sort of way. :)

hey, you can take one of those days off to help me clean the garage and/or studio and/or craft room....
