Kids from my old college just started this semester's game of HvZ (Humans versus Zombies). Apparently the Patient Zero has some training as a circus acrobat, and his attacks involve cartwheels and jumping into/out of trees. Sight-unseen, I think I love this kid.
I've got a shortened weekend this time around, but I'm getting a 3-day weekend plus
systemcrasher next week, which is a more than fair trade. One of my cousins has a house out on Cape Cod and has kindly let us borrow it for the weekend, so we're going to go up there and play house and write and probably do a lot of cooking.
I'm also going to have at least a full week off in January (if I take it the first week of January, it'll be 11 days) and we're trying to figure out what we're doing & where we're staying. We originally wanted to go up to Montreal for at least part, but that might be too expensive, especially if my finances post-February are still undecided. (If I have a definite offer with a definite start date, I'd probably be willing to dip into my savings account a bit.)
Frankly, 11 days of hotel bills are going to be expensive no matter where we go. Best case scenario is that the Cape Cod house will be open for all or part of that week, and we like it enough to stay there again. (Or that another friend or family member randomly has an unoccupied apartment or house somewhere in eastern Massachusetts that they'll let us live in for a bit.)
