let us be calm and wise

A vacation isn't a vacation for me unless I experience a positive abeyance of my normal routines. (This is why it's easier to have a vacation somewhere other than where I usually sleep.) It's not so much a matter of sleeping in - I usually wake up as early as usual after the first morning - as doing and being different things than usual to facilitate stretching myself out of mental & physical complacence with my daily status quo and stock up on personal spoons to boot.
