JA: And gee Mike, sure would hate to be you... roller blading in the Rockies, Skating in the Rockies? That is so
last summer! :roll:
(Actually in terms of pure fun, that was one of the best vacations I've ever taken. Highly recommended. Too bad I didn't have time to do it again this year.)
travelling all over Spain Well not
all over Spain. We're saving the south for another time.
Oh, and you
missed a trip in between Colorado and Spain.
(Won't jinx things by mentioning what else is in the works for this fall...)
... geez :roll:
Coupla standard responses to that:
(1) I list "travel" as an interest on my resume. Now wouldn't it make me a damn liar if I didn't actually do it?
(2) Geez, look at Michael not having cable TV, so he has more money for travel. Buying a cheaper car, so he has more money for travel. Living very modestly in general, so he has more money for travel. (Starting to see a
pattern?) Just depends on what you want to do. (I mean, this former coworker of mine gave me a hard time (jokingly) once about my vacations. Turns out this woman's little hobby was having her nails done every other week at $25 a pop. That's friggin' $650 a year spent ON HER FINGERNAILS! I see an extra $650 a year as a round-trip ticket to somewhere fun.)
(3) Not having a house, kids, pets, or plants makes getting up and going somewhere a lot easier. (Not to mention not having a working farm.)
(4) Travel is *not* that expensive. Or, maybe let me rephrase that: the more you do it, the better you get at doing it cheaply.
