Vacations Are Too Short

    

     .... but then we knew that, didn't we?
     It's back to work forkaffyr, and I'm going to try to put in a productive Monday. You in the back row, stop snickering.
     Productive means getting a feature written, checking with the boss to see what needs doing, and catching up on some work related things I promised myself to check on. Yes, I know you're enthralled ... and there's so much more!
     Well, not that much more. Saw "Closing Time" last night, so I suppose I'll eventually post about it. Thought it was a bit rubbish, save for Matt's fantastic work and some admittedly funny bits between the Doctor and his "partner," but BB, who liked it, convinced me not to dismiss it entirely. (Notice how I avoided spoilers there? I'm so proud of me.)
     Also, I still need to get some unfinished vacation self-appointed chores done, although that may not happen today. Why, with seven vacation days in which to complete them, do I usually manage to leave some vacation tasks incomplete?
     Ah, well. My first day back doesn't end until sometime post 9 p.m., so I'm going to take the time for a hot shower, and then kick it into high gear.
     Didn't I tell you to stop snickering?
     I mean it.

Have I told you before that retirement means you never get another day off. It is 24/7, 365 with no holidays or vacation time. Just letting you know in case you start getting wistful while you are at work.

Well, it's a good thing I probably won't be able to retire until I'm 75, eh? Heh.

Ouch.

Sometimes my humour isn't as funny or appropriate as I would like.

Sorry Kaffyr.

Oh, heavens, no! I got a good laugh out of it; I'm sorry if my response sounded sour (was it the icon? I couldn't resist the chance to use my only "retiree" type icon.) Never worry about your sense of humor: I'm really the kind of person who can be counted upon to get it!
