On the first day of my Presidency, I will...

Short post today...busy.

I think I have hypothesized that certain holidays should never fall mid-week...and I would like to re-iterate that. July 4th? New Year's Eve? St. Patrick's Day? They should be allowed to move around the calendar a little bit. New Year's and July 4th should be banned from Wednesdays, and should be encouraged for Tuesdays and Thursdays since it makes for a really nice four day weekend. St. Patrick's Day, which is not cool enough to get a day off from work, should only be allowed on Friday or Saturday.

When I am President...you can count on this being made into law.

Props to Nilsa for pointing out that dying the Chicago river green is kind of unnecessary. I am pretty sure that it is still flammable... But I still kinda miss it:-)

And have I mentioned that I am going on vacation again next week? Children provide one heck of an excuse to take vacations during their school breaks...although I will fight the urge to take another one for Tinkerbelle's April vacation;-).

Three days and counting...

I suppose the 'holidaze' you mentioned would be best if they fell on a Thursday so that the following Friday would also be observed, like Thanksgiving. I'm just glad that Arbor Day falls on a Friday this year .... Cheers !

I was wondering when you were going to finally get around to writing about vacation! I was worried that maybe you weren't that psyched about it. I know I am!

By the next go-round, I should be a US citizen so, yeah, I'd vote for you! :)

Happy vacationing next week!

While you're at it, could you pass out ankle bracelets to all bad (as in disrespectful) drivers which restricts them to driving in the right lane only? Thanks!

Exactly how much vacation time do you accrue in a year?
