I seem to have money when Kris and I plan something. Paypal sided with me regarding the dispute, and I had a few payments come in today, which is nice since this weekend we decided to take a vacation to a hotel out east and then go to Atlantis Marine World one of the days we’re out there. We’re going from August 27th-29th. I’m hoping I can just have Friday off and make it a three day weekend, but that depends on clients. It also depends on bills and how we are with money I suppose, though even when we are fine with money I find myself working more and more.
I suppose it’s because I can’t really relax. I am hoping that on our vacation I will be able to at least get a little relaxing done. Yesterday I played a lot of Left 4 Dead 2, but even then I felt like I should be doing something productive, I’m not sure why I can’t just take a day and relax without thinking about work or anything important, I am sure that when/if I get the Droid 2 it will only get worse since I will be able to check my email and do some minor work wherever I am. Maybe I am just destined to stay in a productive state.
Yesterday I did manage to get something done though, I put up the articles section and I think so far that it may be confusing some people, especially since right now it is on top of the blog and no one scrolls down that far, maybe I will change that, but eventually I’d like to have them side by side I think. Either way it will be a place that I can get my thoughts out about things that are separate from the blog and sometimes more important. I will hopefully eventually have categories there too, so I will have posts on video games and other things I want to write about.
i was gonna go with iseefireflies.net but i think i’m going to wait till i have a job so i can have more money in my bank (:
I know what you mean about productivity. One summer, my therapist told my parents to take away my phone and force me to stop working lol. That’s when i learned that sometimes, you’re just going to have to put clients on hold.
Its kinda hard tho because at the same time, they are the ones that are feeding you too!
I hope you do get some R&R on your vacation
I think that it’s hard to just stop working sometimes. I rarely ever gave myself a break about 3 years ago and ended up making myself sick. I ended up with mono and was sick almost from October until January, and then got sick again since my immune system was so messed up. It was a reality check for me because I was doing so much with work, school, tutoring kids, and the like that I forgot to put myself first.
I think people like us who are productive and like to do our work well forget that we sometimes need a break ourselves, and that the world won’t collapse if we take some time to ourselves.
With all of that being said. ENJOY YOUR VACATION, and give yourself that long weekend. Your clients go on vacation, don’t they? I think you deserve it!
Oh yay! I knew paypal ould side with you! ^^ Hope you enjoy your vacation.
It is better to be in a “productive mood” than the unproductive one…
The “article section” and the “blog update’ don’t seem to be too complicated to figure out, I just didn’t reply there because I know nothing about video games.
btw, about what you commented on my blog, the numbers have nothing to do one with the other..
