Back To Work

Of course I had my day-before-work insomnia last night. Couple that with the fact that I’m used to staying up late during the Con. And my feet hurt all the way up to my armpits. So, it’s difficult to get up when that @#$% alarm clock goes off at 6 am.

But I made it to work. Made it on time. And remembered all my computer passwords for work. Still, I sometimes get a little surly when I go back to work after a vacation really, anything more than a regular weekend.

So I came up with these Reasons Why Vacations Are Bad:

* Too much fun during vacations only serves to remind you how uneventful other days are
* Hard to remember the route to work when your car wants to automatically head to the Convention Center
* Not having a massive bag full of game paraphernalia is making my shoulder feel underworked
* Home cooked meals are a letdown after eating at a different restaurant every day (well, a letdown if you’re the one cooking, anyway)
* Sitting in a chair instead of walking on my bloody foot-stumps just feels weird now
* Have to keep reminding yourself to not use game-related phrases, so as not to “freak out the norms”
* Twelve more months until next Gen Con!
