I take a day or two here or there. Like Friday-Monday for my anniversary, and a day to take care of stuff with the new car. Other than that I'm only out if I'm sick, and even then I'm likely to WFH. I wonder if there's a way to WFI?
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
So the question isn't what to say, it's how to go about bringing yourself to say it? In that case I believe email is appropriate. I'm thinking, "I have some vacation time coming up. When can we get together to discuss my plans?"

I'm not sure that I have vacation time coming up. Certainly not 3 weeks worth.

DJ, DOOOOOO EEEEEEEEET!
I know very well this "I don't deserve stuff" thing, though. I bet I can totally out "I don't deserve stuff" you. Let's rumble.

I will not rumble with you because I am not good at rumbling and can't ever win at rumbling so I'm not going to even try to rumble or I'll look dumb.

That's okay, I was totally gonna let you win.
Or lose.
Whichever would have been better for you.
But if there's any way I can help build your morale so that you can ask for and receive your well deserved three week vacay with Jon, please let me know.

Everybody gets vacation time after a year. It's a rule. I wish we could get you some felix felicitatus because you absolutely deserve 3 weeks, all you need is the confidence to demand it.

I think I'll do the Typo Boy suggested email route tomorrow. My boss is out of the office on Tuesdays (WFH) so I will have a reason to email instead of walking the 4 feet to her desk. I think I'll also discuss with Jon if it has to be 3 weeks. Like, maybe if I gave up Goa for my birthday (but I totally want to do Goa on my birthday!) if we could do 2 or 2 1/2 if my boss says 3 is unacceptable.
