Holiday (insert own Madonna voice here)

listersgirlI have more Fringe reviews (for the two of you that are interested), and an ever-growing list of books, but I also have actual work to do before I go on vacation, so that'll have to wait.
Because, yes, I'm going on a mini-holiday starting Tuesday. All of four days. I'm at work today (after being off yesterday) and coming to work on Monday, much to the disbelief of my co-workers. I only had four days vacation time, ok? Anyway, my parents are coming out from the coast and we're going to the Stratford Festival, and then they're very briefly coming here, to my apartment which I've been diligently cleaning. It should be fun. God knows I haven't been to the theatre in ages. Heh.
But I thought, since I'm going on holiday, I should do the vacation tradition of sending out postcards that arrive home after I do. Or in this case, probably even get sent after I arrive home. But hey, it's tradition! And everyone loves mail.
So who wants a postcard?

Also, since it's July, it's time for a quick resolution update. June's resolution was to take more initiative at work. I don't know, I was so freakishly busy with my regular work that I didn't have time to move on any of the projects that I wanted to get going on. Although today I took initiative and completely changed the intranet site without running it past anyone. Sadly, it's already July.
As for this month, I so solemnly swear to only watch TV if there's something specific that I want to watch. No random surfing! Which basically means very little TV watching and more time for DVDs. Which is good, because I have a list of TV shows on DVD that I want to see.
