ugh

it was on my mind this week and weekend, and now my manager has brought it up:

i need to schedule my sabbatical.

jfc, man, i haven't got time for a 3 week vacation!

i'm sorry that this sounds silly. i know it is. more rich-man's guilt, eh? most folks don't get this kinda opportunity, and here i am being a whiney little bitch about what a big inconvenience a 3 week vacation is going to be.

i think i've gotten over the things that have kept me from taking the usual american-style vacations : europe, hawaii, thailand, etc.

oh, hell, no i haven't.

and now i've got other things that make me hesitant to leave the continent, country, state, or bay area for long periods.

bleh.

okay, today i'm gonna brainstorm it, and by the weekend i'm gonna have it all figured out. right? riiiiight.
