Holidays over...

supertinksHolidays are always too short these days. I remember when a six week long summer holiday wasn't enough, so three or four days certainly don't do the job any more!
These few days between Christmas and New Year always feel a bit wasted though. Its kind of like being in limbo - half the businesses are closed for the week, whereas others are still open. Kids aren't in school, but there's nothing good on TV. All the sales have started, so town is heaving, but having just got everything I want for Christmas already, there's nothing I want to buy.
Having the day off yesterday was lovely, but today and tomorrow is back to normal in work, although not everyone is in today.
I appear to have missed out on being told by our FD that its ok to dress down today, as him and Chrissy (who were both in yesterday) are in jeans, whereas me and Amanda (who had yesterday off) are not. Although, the other side of the office aren't, so I guess its a finance thing.
Have already started booking holiday dates for next year, so I can no spend the afternoon hunting round on the net for the best deals for Paris in February.
Have decided that although I am going to CP this year, unless I have a super-duper amazing time, I'm not going back the following year, as I need my holiday days for my exams, plus I'm kinda getting used to the idea of having real holidays, and it really eats into the amount of time I can have away.
And it'd be nice to have time off over Christmas properly.
