Cause for Celebration

Just when you think you can't take anymore of this corporate life, a 3-day weekend comes along to remind you just how good you had it when you were an unemployed drunk (aka college student), effectively leaving you in a state worse than ever. GREAT.


I jest, I jest. In truth, I'm so excited to be out of the office for three whole days that I'm taking an extra day off, just for good measure, bringing my total up to FOUR. The next few days will be a bit of a whirlwind for me. Tonight I am departing for a 24-hour trip to the best place on Earth, Alix's summer home at Fish Lake in Wisconsin. Then, on Saturday morning I depart with Nater to meet the rest of the Team in Rhode Island until Monday night, where I'll attempt to both eat my body weight in chowder and clam cakes and keep my mouth shut around my conservative, Republican extended family. Also, my cousin's 4-month-old daughter is being christened on Sunday, so I have to actually set foot in a church. I assume I'll be immediately struck down by lightning as soon as my sinful body crosses the threshold, so if I never blog again, its because I'm being eternally punished for my sins in the deepest circle of hell.

Happy Independence-from-work-for-one-day Day!!!!
