Diary of an Ex-Employee - Day 14.0

Well, it's official.  Fluffy Bear and I are both free agents.

As he is very well known in his industry, he's already had three calls from other companies who've heard he's available through the grapevine and want to talk turkey.  So he'll be fine.

I am toying with the idea of us doing something stupid and going away for Memorial Day weekend.  Just get away from it all, have some fun and then do the serious job hunt networking resume editing bla bla bla stuff afterwards.

But how to go away for a weekend and manage to just forget money woes?  Would we be able to not question every restaurant check, not look for the cheaper option on the menu and not make passive agressive toasts to our former bosses?  The whole thing might turn out to be anything but a destress weekend.  Especially for our friends who we're thinking of tagging along with.

Also I have done so much business and personal flying that the thought of even driving to the airport negates the happiness of a weekend away for me.  If it was a two week holiday I can put up with the shit airplane seats, the awful line at security, the moron in front of me who doesn't know they have to take off their shoes before they go through the scanner, but for just a three day weekend?  Hmmmmmm

A cabin in the woods might be nice.  We could take Puppy Dog, have nice walks every day, take our own food... It would be especially good if it had a hot tub.  Mmmmm... Now we talkin'.

Maybe I should do some online searching....

Oh no, not both of you! My favorite cabin in the woods: http://cottage.luckymud.com/ No hot tub, sadly, but very nice.
