Thanks for the offer. Finding it difficult to take vacation, for a number of reasons. Today is the last day for this year's vacation and honestly I'll have almost all of the 8 work days off work load sitting in my InBox and on my desk when I get back tomorrow. The instant panic crap is handled okay by others at work, the rest of it just seems to accumulate because no one really wants my job.

Not to cry in my beer (since I don't like beer) but I'm pretty well trapped in my job and in my location by age, education and social perceptions. About the only way out for me would be to create a business, and I'm not making any headway in that department, either.

I think a fair number of us on this forum are "dust bunnies" trapped under the fridge of Life, not going anywhere or able to make any real contributions to the world at large. Need I say I'm almost hoping for a total economic meltdown?
