Free time

December 27, 2004

I have this week of from work. I do have to use some of my vacation days, but I don’t care. I need this badly. I am definitely experiencing some symptoms of burnout. I can tell, because instead of getting up this morning and taking advantage of this free time, i slept in. I never sleep in. I hate it when I do because I wake up and then feel like I’ve wasted my time off. I mean if I can get myself up and out for work, then I should be able to get my up for a little free time. I did, however, go to see A Series of Unfortunate Events with my oldest son. Very cool movie. I recommend it, even if you don’t have a child to use as an excuse for seeing it.

Hopefully, I’ll get some stuff done with the time off. I have a few things that I’ really like to take care of. I really do need to update my resume and test the waters with it. I need to do major cleaning of the areas of the house that contains my computer stuff, my backpacking stuff and my tools. I’d also like to get a Linux box or two set up and maybe even networked.

The week is young. If I don’t do all the those things it will probably be because we got the Extended LoTR Box Set and the Original Star War Trilogy Box set. That’s about 40 hours of quality movie watching right there.
