Forcing some time off

After all this time, I’ve managed to accumulate 2 lieu days and 5 vacation days carried over from last year which need to be used up by the end of March. Since I had to work the whole weekend and continue to work weird hours (just until tomorrow) I’ve been feeling worn out. I’m sure my colleagues feel the same way. So, despite my tendency to just keep at it, I’ve decided to use up my lieu days. Since next Monday is already an Ontario holiday I decided to ask for the following Tuesday and Wednesday off. My PM has already approved it, so I’m all set.

Including the weekend that gives me 5 days of rest, which is just awesome. I don’t have any plans to go anywhere (yet), but frankly I just need to be any place but my desk. I know I’m going to get twitchy during that time feeling like I have to be productive. I know I’m going to have urges to check my work email, but I’m going to force myself to stay away from the working world. I just need to get some of my sanity back.

Stupid V-Day!
