I think I should take one before summer is over. I just don’t know quite what I should do.
Some people have taken big trips this summer, to other parts of the country. It’s a little last minute for me to do something that big. Some of done camping things, which I don’t much want to do because of how much I fear poison oak.
Of course where to go isn’t the only question. Do I want to take people with me? If not then am I going to go visit someone? For how many days?
Vacations are an odd thing for me. I seem to find the most relaxation from just doing whatever I would normally do without obligations. It just doesn’t seem like a vacation to take a bunch of days off work anymore though. What would I do? Sit on the computer all day every day? It would be boring, I would want some kind of interaction.
So far the best idea I have had is to go visit my friend in his relatively new apartment. It would be a bit of a drive, which is probably a good thing. Getting me away completely from all of this stuff. It would be relatively cheap to do since I wouldn’t need to stay at a hotel or something.
So now its just this last minute thing. Should I actually do it? Do I really think it will help? Do you, the few people who read this, think I should?

You camped as a kid and didn't get poison oak -- but if the fear level is too high, camp at the ocean. Beach-side sites have NO poison oak (though they do get cold and misty).
ReplyDeleteVisiting a friend is a good option.
Visiting Cody and Chris in Olympia is an option.
Depending on your money, hopping a plane to NY (stay with Mona) or Florida (many relatives) is also an option. Works even for an extended weekend of 5 day off. :)
I DEFINITELY think taking off for a few days and getting out of normal mode is a fine plan.
