Vacation

Okay, so that's pretty much what I thought. Thanks for answering my questions. Basically it's all pointless unless I can slow him down enough to get him to look at it and appreciate it. Like taking him to a museum with a bar and expecting him to look at the paintings. He's just there for the drinks.

Today was my last day of actual work before I go on vacation. I have an all day staff meeting on Monday, but that's basically just me telling my boss about all the things I want to do in the coming year. New programs and so forth. I'm actually trying to work out a way that I can visit the major film festivals as a part of my job without having to beg/nag my boss in order to go. And program another film festival. And produce some films. We'll see if any of it works out. He kind of already knows what I want to do; we just have to lay out the plan so it happens during the next fiscal year. Anyway, that's it, and then vacation.

I'm actually looking forward to going. I haven't been home since Christmas of 2008, so it's been a while. Maybe I'm getting old and sentimental, or maybe I'm just perpetually lonely, but I've found over the last few years that I actually miss my family when I don't see them often. And it's usually cold when I go, so I'm looking forward to nice weather and horsebackriding too. Supposedly my mom is scheduling a massage for me, so we'll see if that happens. At least it will be nice to get away from all this crap for a while. Maybe not worry about the boy(s) for a while.
