If I ever get another urge to go for a year without a vacation, please do me a favor and hit me over the head with a Teflon frying pan.
I have no idea what possessed me to do it this year but I’m now seeing that this was a really stupid thing to do. I feel completely exhausted, I have trouble sleeping, on Sunday it got so bad that I could barely stay on my feet.
” But look at all of those people who go for years without vacations, ” N said yesterday. “Maybe we should become more like them.”
” Why would we want to do that?” I asked.
” Well, maybe they are tapping into the inner resources that we haven’t learned to access.”
“Or maybe they are idiots,” I countered.
Right now I can’t even remember why skipping this year’s vacation seemed like a smart thing to do back in summer.
