How the hell does one use half a vacation day?
By going home early?
Mal: How come you didn't turn on me, Jayne? Jayne: Money wasn't good enough. Mal: What happens when it is? Jayne: Well... that'll be an interesting day.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Go to the movies. Sleep in.
People around here take all sorts of fractions of vacation days.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
but there've been rumours/theories for awhile that Cheney would step down and let Bush appoint a VP with a chance of winning the 2008 presidential election.
Crap, I was thinking of applying for the position, but if one of the qualifications is having a chance of winning the 2008 presidential election....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
By going home early?
Yeah, I guess. It just feels weird, as a salaried employee, to be accounting for less than a full day off. But I have to use it up before the end of March or I lose it, so I guess I'll be giving myself a longish weekend soon.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I would vote for tommyrot, and possibly make a campaign donation as well. I'd give good money to see a SOTU address by someone with a cat perched on his (or her) shoulder.
So, there's one vote, and at least $11.50 in the presidential campaign till. How does that stack up against the competition?

Or I could just dangle cat toys in front of the camera, to amuse the cats watching at home.

I don't know what the competition has. So, as far as I know they have 0$. I win!

I finally made it home around 5am this morning, although my luggage is still somewhere in the æther.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Well, that was unexpected.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Ack about the luggage, shrift. Nothing crucial in it, I hope.
