Damn, I'm jealous! I want a vacay BAD!
My wife is 5 months pregnant and for the first time in our lives we can't just take off to where ever... so I have to live vicariously through others. That said, I probably missed it, but where you at and what are you doing?
Please don't tell me Vegas, I have the Vegas itch and knowing I can't go makes it worse. But, that won't stop me from getting my buzz on and posting some drunk posts on a Friday morning at 2:30AM Pacific. Having every Friday off FTW!
Ha. Congrats on being an expecting dad.
Sorry to disappoint, but I'm actually on a stay-cation. It was a little unexpected, so I didn't plan anything.
I've been working like a madman for the past few weeks and just came off a long week at the AIDS conference, fielding calls and doing media briefings for foreign media at ungodly hours and stuff. So, I needed a break. I have another huge project and my co-worker (I basically work on a 2-person immediate team) was 8 months pregnant. I had a break in the project itinerary this week and realized - hey, if I don't take this week off, I don't know when the next time I can afford to take a week will be. So, that's what I did.
...Lo and behold, my coworker went in to labor early and had the baby Sunday (baby and mother are both healthy). So, she's been out too, obviously, which meant that I've actually been on e-mail and working lightly all week anyway! Having a real job is nice when it comes being able to buy sneakers liberally and freely, but sometimes it's a party pooper.
Oh, and I'm staying out of this feud. Although, I did chuckle a bit when GG included the "thank god" about not living in NJ. No disrespect my NJ kinfolk, but that was funny. If it makes you feel any better, NJ heads, the self-titled Naught by Nature album is one of the most underrated hip hop albums ever.
