The flower of my youth, originally uploaded by estacey.

Last night, I was talking with Balu about the whole job-switch situation. I think the dates are finally figured out as of today. Anyway, I was playing with the end and start dates of my old and new jobs, trying to make sure I had a couple of days off in between, even if that meant I was unpaid for a couple of days.

I said, "I guess I can just donate plasma. Or, actually, I looked into that whole egg donation thing a while back.." This is more of a joke than anything; I typically don't need money bad enough to start selling off bits of/from my body.

Anyway, then Balu asked, "Aren't you too old for that?"

I hereby take back all of that best-roommate stuff I've said in the past. (Kidding!)

It now looks like I'll have a full week off! It'll be an on-the-cheap, at-home vacation, but luckily I'm in Florida, so that's a nice idea -- I can dive and kayak and all that for nearly free. And this may be too ambitious, but I may even get to get some reading done..! Maybe in a hammock in the backyard..
