I know you've been planning to come here and visit me -- er, your wife's family -- and having the opportunity suddenly pulled out from under you is like waiting in line at Disneyland all afternoon, only to be told the ride you want is out of service. I'm with Marie. You've earned your time off. If you weren't working I'm sure you wouldn't be planning a big vacation. And yeah, 'staycations' are a term invented by people who either, a) don't want to give up the cash to go away, or b) aren't adventurous enough to get outta town. Here's hoping things will turn out better than you expect. .-= Julia´s last blog ..<a href="http://juliapoet.blogspot.com/2009/09/making-of-glass-noodles-with-crab.html" rel="nofollow">The Making of Glass Noodles with Crab</a> =-.

A lecture isn't going to pay for a plane ticket. You have every right to be disappointed and depressed. Who wouldn't be upset if they found out they weren't going on an awesome vacation? A robot. Maybe. You work HARD. Like, real, dangerous physical labor in the hot sun on rooftops, which is more than what some people can say for themselves while they're playing solitaire or jerking off on company time and telling you to be thankful for your job, "I know I AM". *wank wank wank* I hope that you can come up with an alternative to painting and damaging your head with pointy things this winter. I'm sorry you can't go. I know you've been looking forward to it for a long time. People who tell you what you should be thankful for can politely kiss off.
