Vacation
by Denise Sawicki on December 22, 2006
Well I requested some time off work until January 3rd... For the price of 4 vacation days I get 11 days off. We're going to go visit my husband's older brother in Wisconsin around New Years... Too bad I don't have any anxiety medication or anything because I might need to be heavily drugged up in order to face the pileup of work that's going to be there when I return, without screaming... Hehe, you know I'm messed up when I'm already pondering the end of vacation before it starts. I'm a glass-half-empty kind of person. Sigh. Seriously though, I should try to work in shorter vacations in the future because they're less stressful.

I'm (finally) on vacation until the 8th or 9th (since the 8th is my birthday, I haven't decided on it yet), and -- not to be flip or callous, but -- thank you, Mr. Ford, for the extra day of leave that I won't have to spend. You were a good man.

We didn't wind up going to Wisconsin. Long story. I went back to work a day early. Still a good long relaxing vacation!

Last weekend we went to an office party at my boss's lake house. We took Philip and he got along famously with my boss's dog, Willow, who is half greyhound and half husky. I like Willow quite a bit. Go »Adventures with food
So, Darrell is getting really into cooking lately so I got him a pasta machine and this weekend we used it for the first time.. OK I used it... and it was kinda fun! Go »Ghost of an Unkissed Kiss
As though I don't look bad enough for sharing information on my lame celebrity crushes, here's a real-life one, albeit a really old one. I'd forgotten that his full name was in the movie we watched the other day and maybe hearing his name was what got me started on this nostalgic path. He's got a common name. Go »Drinks
We found a big 1.75 liter bottle of Absolut Apeach for $10 ... We didn't realize what a great special this was until we saw that the little 0.75 Go »
