4 out of 7 days, I really don't mind going to work. Occasionally, I even look forward to it. However, the one time that the loving work drops to 0 out of 7 days is during the summer. For me, there is nothing more painful than working away all summer and missing out on lazy summer days my the lake/pool/whatever. I need to get better about taking LONG vacations over the summer--I usually only take 1-2 vacation days at a time to add to a weekend, but now I'm thinking that it would be GLORIOUS to take a whopping 5 or 6 days at a time! For me, summer is just the best, most enjoyable time ever, and there's nothing more relaxing to me that camping out at the lake with not a care in the world.
The real point of this thought of the day though, was why in the WORLD didn't I think to become a teacher or to do something else within a school?!

Hehe. That's half my motivation for being a professor. Turn my every summer into a paid vacation (pardon, grant-funded research trip) to Europe. My old history prof just told me he's spending two months in Berlin this summer, the lucky bastard. Someday, that will be me. Hells yeah!
