I am so ready for my vacation, it isn't even funny. I'm taking a few days off around my birthday starting Thursday, and I am very much looking forward to them.
It's not that anything is particularly wrong at work, mind you. I just need a few days to not work. To just goof off and be silly and do things I don't normally get to do. (Like pay a matinee price for Zodiac and Pan's Labyrinth while getting to see them in broad daylight, visit museums, and have lunch with friends who don't work in midtown, sit in tea lounge all day on a weekday and write, shop, etc.). Ideally, I'd be on my way to the Bahamas tomorrow morning, but alas. I think those Bahamavention subway ads have been getting to me. Along with this crazy weather. (Did someone fall asleep at the switch? -10 degree wind chill? I do not approve.)
I also have to figure out what it is I want for my birthday. The problem is pretty much the same one I had around Christmas. I don't really know if I want anything. My jewelry box literally fell apart a few months ago, so I need a new one (and would like a better one, too.) Of course, there's an album here and a dvd there that would make me happy, but no one big huge thing, which I told my parents on Saturday when they asked me. ("I still haven't found what I'm looking for" just came on New Orleans Girl's ipod. How apropos).
I don't know. I know I want "something." But what that something could be is beyond me. And last time I checked, stores do not sell "Undetermined Shiny Thing that will make me feel warm and fuzzy inside." Of course, I'm open to suggestions. Seeing people and doing things that are fun are at the top of my list though - and that starts with dinner with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
