time to fly ....

for those not reading [livejournal.com profile] catwithclaws.... WORLD CUP, VEGAS, BABY!

http://www.worldcuplasvegas.com/ April 17th-19th!

gonna be there with [livejournal.com profile] thelitas this time around (last time was a mini LJ meetup, v. awesome). which is extra-awesome since she's on top of my folks-to-meet list (with [livejournal.com profile] normandy_shores), so I get to have fun, watch amazing kick ass ponies, see a new Cirque show, go out dancing/drinking/clubbing and just have a kick-ass time (and birthday to boot!).

anyone else from the f-list or LJ land going?

I wish I could go! Been meaning to make it out there someday. Alas, 2010 is WEG in Kentucky, so all big horse show money is going to getting out there! :D

yup, I plan on WEG too, although it's going to be SO big I'm not sure which events to try to attend yet!

yup, I plan on WEG too although I'm not sure how much time I'll be able to take off .... I'll have to save up for that one (time wise more than money wise!). WEF! have a blast and enjoy the sunshine :D

I can DRIVE to the WEG.

That makes my life.

I'm on for WEG. I have the vacation time saved up and the room reserved, because God Knows 2010 will get here faster than we think. I'm signed up to be a volunteer, and plan to spend a full week there.

WEG > World Cup because no "DING DING DING DING DING" noises from slot machines.

d'oh! last time I did the full week and that was more than enough to last a number of years -- plus with the tax season here in the US, I can't take time off of work. have fun!!

[identity profile] foalstory.livejournal.com 2009-01-26 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
see, we can only roll over 40 hours from year to year, so saving now doesn't do me much good. I'll start saving up in September :P

I can drive to Vegas too. But I'm not gonna :D

40 hours is all you need to take a week off! So I have 40 hours that I'm not touching. I consider that my "Zero" level on vacation time. Then I always have an extra week available.

[identity profile] foalstory.livejournal.com 2009-01-26 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
true, except we have to use it by the end of march, so saving now only means I have to take a week off between Jan 1 and march 31st next year.

still, I like your POV. except I always have too many things to do and not enough vacation time :) I rarely fritter it away but I get about 7 hours each paycheck (every 2 weeks) so it accrues quickly too.
