Take the day off!

That's what I have decided to do today. I have skipped all my classes thus far, and not going to any of my meetings! I suggest everyone do that today, or maybe, tommorrow. Just go out and enjoy the weather and be free for a day!

In theory this sounds like a good plan. However, I can't really take today off, as it's just about 8pm and I've been fairly active today. And tomorrow I have an interview for a job I really really really really really really really really want (really), so I can't take tomorrow off either.

The other (rather larger) flaw in the plan is that this is the UK, and it is therefore impossible to enjoy the weather.

I wish I could. I'll have to settle for a long lunch break.

As for the weather, it's 40 F. outside with a high wind advisory, so I'll pass.

Bah! that sucks! Point being, take a day off to chill. It is fantastic :)

I'm already planning on taking tomorrow off. But I am going to run around getting my dogs taken care of and try to get the house cleaned up, so it won't be completely relaxing.

It's fucking beautiful out. But I can't take the day off.. I have a test, and I have to get some things ready for this big dinner my school is throwing for board members. It's insanity! Insanity I tell you!

The only class that would have mattered for me to go to today is my Engineering lecture, which uses a program similar to PowerPoint, but syncs the slides to everyone in the classroom's computer, so they dont have to look at the projector. Luckily for me, it can also sync to my computer when I'm in my dorm room. :)

I take a day off and skip every class pretty much every Tuesday because of it.

I have about 19 P.T.O. days at work. I never use the things unless I'm sick. Take too much time off and people realize that you're replacable.

Good luck!

If only I could...school, work, and family obligations do not allow me such luxuries. :(

Pfft...wimp!

When we get that kind of weather in March here in Wisconsin, you're likely to see people walking around outside in a t-shirt and shorts! :p

I would if I could, but I can't, so I won't. :(

I'm free everyday all the time, so no need for this.
