I am on a vacation of sorts too! I am in Lanesboro at a bed and breakfast with Mark for our anniversary. We took a long walk along the Root River today, because, um. What we do when we visit places is go visit their water. Trees are also nice. But "here we are, what shall we do, I know, let's walk by their water" is really one of our very standard things. (Why Mris does not often vacation in the American Southwest, Reason 316.)
I don't think of conventions as vacations because I am required to interact with too many monkeys for it to feel like a break, even if I'm not getting as much writing done as usual (which I usually am not). When I am on vacation, physical exhaustion is fine but emotional exhaustion or feeling overwhelmed is not really the thing.
