Flying back to San Francisco today. It'll be nice to be home, but I also don't want to leave New Zealand.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
It is ridiculously warm for late October here.

I also don't want to leave New Zealand.
Giving New Zealand sufficient time basically takes a sabbatical, I suspect. There's just too much of it to see.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
How does one go about taking a sabbatical?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
At my job, they will give you six weeks paid and another six unpaid after you've worked there for 10 years.

Jesse, 10 years is a long time but dang, that's some incentive!

I think after 10 years at my company they give you a jacket. And another week of vacation.

Yeah, my coworker just spent the summer driving across country with her kid, which sounded amazing. Unfortunately, her position was just eliminated, which is kind of the dark side of the whole thing -- they got used to being without her.

I've got almost more PTO than I can use after ten years, but I'm only allowed to use it a week at a time.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
A week at a time isn't bad, though.
