Ahhh, vacation

Well, if you follow this blog, you'll know I'm on vacation this week.

You know, I think vacation is the natural state for a human being to be in. It just feels right. You come and go as you please (within the limits of your dad's schedule, at least, cuz he's the one with the car). You get fed well, you can sleep as much as you want. All the good stuff.

This week has been great. I accomplished my main goal of finding a new apartment. I've made all my moving arrangements. Now I can go back to Halifax and spend the next three weeks winding things down there, getting ready to move and writing up my final report.

Unfortunately, I have to go back to Halifax for a few days in the middle of January for the wrap-meeting. That's where I'll present my final report. Then after that, my life returns to normal. At least, until the next big project comes along.

I do hope there will be more big projects. I'll get bored if I have to just do my regular job all the time and never have anything else to do.

But, this post was supposed to be about my vacation!

We had a bad storm here yesterday. Rain, Snow, ice pellets, freezing rain, wind. It was tres nasty. But today the sky is as blue as you can imagine and the sun is shining its little heart out. That's Ottawa for ya.

Today's my last full day of holidays. Tomorrow I have to go back to Halifax. We'll be heading off to breakfast soon - a daily treat when I stay with my folks. And I guess I'll be doing this again when I first get back from Nova Scotia. I have to stay here for eight days between when I arrive back in Ottawa and my moving day. That'll mean I have to commute to the office through town for three days after New Year's. That'll be fun. Not. But it's only three days. I'll survive. I just hope there isn't any bad weather during that time!

Okay...I'm just blathering, no one cares about this stuff. Over and out for now.
