I need a vacation.
This week was brutal. Just brutal.
I need a vacation and I have PLENTY of vacation time, but no money to get away and do anything. Maybe I should restate that: I have some money, but I’d feel incredibly guilty and wasteful using it for something like a hotel or airfare when I have a $17,000 school loan on one shoulder, another smaller school loan and credit card debt on the other shoulder, and car payments to boot.
Since I can’t do anything about a vacation right now anyway, I’ve decided that tomorrow can be a mini-vacation. My copy of Harry Potter 7 is sitting in a UPS shipping facility a few towns over, waiting for tomorrow. It will arrive late tomorrow morning (which is fine - I’ll sleep late) and then if it’s not disgustingly humid and stays in the low 80’s temperature-wise, I might actually venture outside (after downing some allergy medicine and with eyedrops in tow) and settle myself on the hammock in our backyard.
Hammock, shady trees, a pillow, a pitcher of iced tea, the new Harry Potter book with its spine still uncracked… that sounds pretty sweet.
