What do you think of my vacation plans for next year? |
|
Lucky me, since I've been at my job for 10 years (Gasp, how the heck did that happen?) now, I got a bonus week of vacation. So, I now have FIVE weeks of paid vacation, almost like I'm living in Europe or something. ;-)
Anyway, we have to submit our schedule for the entire year in advance so adequate coverage can be coordinated. Here's what I've come up with:
Week of July 25 — RAGBRAI (weeklong cycling event in Iowa) Week of Aug. 23 — Burning Man (This one is more tentative but want to keep my options open.) Week of Aug. 29 — Repug convention in NYC (Somebody asked me why I would want to go to the GOP convention. I just smirked.) Week of Oct. 25 — Spend the week wherever helping whichever Dem get elected president
The remaining week I broke up to have scattered long weekends throughout the year.
Now this is not to say that I will have the money or the opportunity to make all of these things happen, but doesn't it sound like it would be an incredible year if they do? A girl can dream anyway, can't she? :D Anyone care to join me?

Can you give one or two of those weeks to me?

EDIT: I should add that your plans sound absolutely fascinating. I hope it works out for you!

That's in addition to 12 paid holidays and 12 sick days, 3 of which can be taken for personal business.
Thanks for your good wishes. I'll keep you posted on my adventures.

I actually heard a story about Burning Man and how they are trying to institute new rules and pissing everybody off. Enjoy

I know it's changed a lot from it's early roots, but doesn't this look AWESOME! More pics here: http://www.webbery.com/galleries/burningman/bm03/index.html
