Stay-cation

Today is my first day of my stay-cation. My job gave us Thursday and Friday off for the holiday weekend and, since I've got some vacation time and comp. time that I'll lose if I don't use it soon, I decided to take the rest of the week off. A friend has offered me the use of her house up in WI for a few days. There were lots of other options I thought about. I could drive out to a surprising amount of places due to friends and family being somewhat scattered. I still want to hit CO but would have to drive far too long on the way there and back to really enjoy the three or so days I could have there. WI is far closer and will, I hope, be relaxing.

Today and tomorrow I shall run errands. Long errands like the DMV. I also want to get my hair cut. And maybe squeeze in a long trip to a museum. Would it be weird if I went back to the Art Institute for the third time in 6 weeks? Of course, only if I can get a free pass. I'll have to see what's available at my local libraries. It might be a thin week since it's a holiday and all.

Ooh, or maybe see the butterflies. That might be a perfect little jaunt.

Oh, and I bought tickets to see Jersey Boys for Sunday night when I return to the city! I've been jonesing to see this show forever. Hottix.org had half-price tickets to this and Mary Poppins earlier today.

Have a wonderful Monday!
