Next week off

It's generally not necessary to get approval for vacations or other time off at Microsoft, but it's customary to give people a few days' warning rather than just disappear randomly.  Today I sent this mail to my team:

I’m gonna take next week (Thanksgiving week / 21-25 November) off and start using up some of this vacation time before it expires. Presumably I will take a short break from playing Skyrim at some point during that week to eat turkey but no guarantees.
It started out as a joke but at some point in typing the message I realized that it's not much of an exaggeration.  Since Thursday at 9pm, life has basically been Skyrim with the occasional interruption for sleep, meals, or work.

What's new

Sleepless in the Seattle Metro Area is the official blog of Travis Spomer.  Look for high-quality Travis Spomer merchandise coming soon.

Views expressed are my own and in no way represent my employer; this is in no way a work blog.  All postings are presented "AS IS" and confer no rights.

Names are generally changed to protect the irrelevant.  Quotes may be paraphrased.  My memory isn't good enough for "details."

Comments you submit become my property.  I can remove or mangle them if I wish, though I probably won't.
