Something that's changing fast for me is having to deal with actua-scheduling issues - and watch as it effects all those in my generation. Manch has always been a place that we have perhaps taken for granted; not in a bad way, but in going along for the ride kind of way. When there was school there was certainty in scheduling, and anyway, my folks did it for us.
BUT NOW: Wa-wa-woo-wa!! (in the words of Borat) I have to think about all these newbie elements - namely work and that thing I have come to know as "vacation time". What's this?! Having to work around a given amount of vacation time? And coordinating with a partner's work schedule as well?! So different.
Ah yes, it is a reality.
Then, moving on up, I guess retirement allows you to base your schedule ON and AROUND those you want to see, how easy that must be...
Anyhoo, that's just a minor comment I guess as I work with trying to book time/flight/family for an arrival sometime in the early 20's of August of this year.
