I’m still on vacation

by Jon on December 30th, 2009

I’ve been having difficulty concentrating at work lately. It might be the season, or it might be the lack of vacation this year.

The funny thing – and I don’t mean funny “ha ha” – is that we didn’t have a planned vacation this year, thanks to Katie’s job hopping, but I ended up using every minute of my sick and vacation time on actual sick time. It’s been a rough year. So if we had taken a vacation, my paycheck would be in jeopardy. So I guess I should be grateful that I didn’t take an actual vacation. Why is it that I don’t feel grateful?

And don’t tell Katie this part, because it wouldn’t make her too pleased – I doubt we’ll get a vacation this year, either. Why? Because with Katie in a motherly way, I’m sure we will be using every bit of our combined vacation times with Mr. Darcy and the accompanying doctor/hospital visits, plus time at home afterward.

As I said on twitter (my 200th tweet!), my mind is already on vacation. Unfortunately, I don’t get a vacation. I’m wondering just how long it will be before I can catch up with myself.
