Happy Birthdaaaaaay to Daoust!
(That is as disturbing as only a Teletubbies meets mimes who talk meets Andy's Here Comes Treble can be)
A belated thank you for this, Anque. You're so money. (I've decided just now to revive that expression.)
I took the day off today. It started as a half-day off to attend a meeting about my mom's long-term care needs and options, one of the crappy things you have to deal with as your parents get older. Then it became a full day because the 3-year-old had us up all night with a cough and fever. It's been forever since I took a day for myself.
Mental Health days should be built into every job. It's good for productivity, man.
No kidding. I'm technically coming off a four day weekend, but things are such that none of it amounted to a relaxing break.
Yeah, having time to yourself is really key. Not that I don't adore my family and my friends, but even an ambivert like myself needs some sweet beautiful silence from time to time.
