The miracle of a long-enough vacation

[darkemeralds]

I went back to work today, and I was actually almost ready to go back to work! I think the timing was just about perfect. One more day off and I'd've started to be kind of mentally blobby. One day fewer, and I'd have been sad.

Today, I was a little sad and not too mentally blobby, so it wasn't bad. And I didn't get rained on riding in! Which was almost a disappointment because I was wearing my new rainboots.



Mind you, I had to take a sleeping draught last night to force myself back into that "Yes, I sleep at night and work during the day" normal-human schedule that eludes me hour by hour over any quiet vacation period. Ah, the joys and trials of living alone!

During my vacation I rode my bike quite a bit, conquered a really thorny timeline-and-plot problem on the novel, made some overdue improvements to my wardrobe (viz Rainboots!, above), blogged a lot, and spent just the right amount of quality time with friends and family.

Now I'm back and rarin' ta go. On vacation again. Maybe in a couple of weeks.

Hey--I put those boots back on the shelf daily! And now you know what I do for a living! :)

Well, they're awesome boots for the price. And let me ask you a merchandising question: how come the tiny sizes for little gals are on the top row, and the big sizes for big tall gals are way down at the bottom?

omg, yes! A question I've asked for *YEARS*! At our location, (so I'm assumimg it's going to be all stores) they've finally started to get that "duh, tiny little feet mean tiny little people..." and flipped the smaller sizes to the bottom.
