Vacation Daze

Hmmm, I just noticed that I have about a business week or so (5 days) worth of vacation days that I have to use up before the end of the year.

Well, I could do the American thing and get paid for those days (we're such good Puritan workers, yes we are) or I can take a couple Friday's off along the way and have some nice 3 day weekends to play with?

I don't think I'll be apt to blow all of those days on one massive trip to London like I did at the beginning of the year. I need to get a new car, perhaps something from this century would be nice, so I'll be saving up for that.
