four days of nothing and everything, nowhere and everywhere

the little company that employs me is being eaten by a big fish, effective today.  my boss encouraged a four day sabbatical, which seemed like a good idea, until she actually enforced the sabbatical, discouraging me from working from home as well.  here i am, day four, sanity intact.  i could have used this time to complete some 'round the house tasks, but...nah.  i have used these four days to read, listen to music, enjoy the weather, play with my seedling plants, nap and watch movies.  yep...that about covers it.  the beau and i enjoyed a sushi and cocktail happy hour, did a little junk browsing, attended the record collector's show and took a walk around gorgeous tower grove park.  i cooked a few meals...a rare, but treasured happening.  we burned up netflix, knocking out several seasons of the twilight zone as well as multiple documentaries - i like killing flies, following sean, the atheism tapes, when you're strange and an encore viewing of marwencol.  it all wraps up with garbage television tonight.  tomorrow morning i'm off to the first of two days in big fish training.
