What would you do with 1 month off?
 
What would you do if you had one month off starting today???

That is my case! I'm off for the entire month of July!

Please provide me with some ideas!

Golf, smoke, sprinkle some cheap household projects in, chase the little woman around, etc. :)

In no particular order: Read a few books on my list (Sirens of Titan and Slapstick by Vonnegut, Blood Meridian by McCarthy), sleep in every day, smoke whenever I wanted, run out of money, get drunk until I heave, get drunk until I have a decent buzz and then responsibly switch to water, get some writing done, change my oil, buy some comic books.

Camp and fish; then fish and camp.

Great Tims think alike!

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
Depends on two things: money and significant other. If the money is there and the significant other is accepting of the idea of staying home while you travel --- hit the road and herf with some fellow CA members one or two states away from you, maybe even further away. Head into a major city and check out their B&Ms. Head to the beach and herf & surf. I'd definitely hit the road if money allowed because you're usually restricted to the occasional long weekend if you want to travel, and vacation time is normally alloted for group/family plans and herfing is a second thought (if it's even considered). :tu

If I could convince the wife to let me do it, I would head down to Pennsylvania for a week of camping and fishing chalk streams.

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
I would fly to San Diego on the 9th for the S.H.I.T herf, then up to LA for 3 days of SoCal X. Rest a few days, then herf at the Barn with the boys. Then arrange a secret herf n shoot at Ratters on the 25th. Spend the last week of the month at home with family, drinking Sierra Nevada on the patio while smoking good cigars! :banger

I'd lay around, make stuff, hurt myself, go to a couple doctor's appointments, and work some sex in.
It's pretty much what I've been doing for the last 22 months off, except I mix up the order some days.
I planted the garden and cut some grass, too. That's cool.

Jiu Jitsu, cigar, eat, sex, repeat!

Does the mix look like... I'd lay myself, make myself hurt, stuff myself, go to a couple doctor's appointments, and work some sex in... with myself???

Sorry Scott!!! I couldn't pass up the opportunity!!!:r




Great answers everyone!!!

BTW - Bob, I think you have an agenda!!!

If I had a month off I would become fat and lazy. Seriously I need to work. :)

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
I am thinking that you are being furloughed to save corporate wonks their cocktail hour??? In that case I would do stuff that brings in food at least, I would do alot of fishing. For the cost of a license, you can put alot of food in the freezer. I would go to Salvation Army and get a fishing pole for option A, then dig some worms and get to "work". You can smoke while you fish, too.

And why don't you have the same? If I had the month off, I would take in as many herfs as possible - especially the big ones.

You live in Chico and you have to ask what I'd do for an entire month?


Why, I'd be here:

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
Like Bob said, I would take the first week and hit SoCalX.....then I would head to Ireland for the last 3 weeks and drink all the Brainblasta Stout I could afford. :)

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
I would get up at a decent hour each morning. Hit the gym for 60-90 minutes. Then I'd come home and do what ever I felt like each day. Booze, cigars, read, etc. It's summer time; let the hangovers determine your activity level on a day-by-day basis. :tu

Try to login every now & then so we can monitor the MOBD shenanigans. :D

Prozac_Puros 07-01-2009 03:16 PM

I would try to hit the CA Herf Trifecta...
Shack Herf
MOB Herf
Masshole Herf

And play a hell of alot of golf :ss

Please insert cigars between each of the above activities.

I'd take at least 10-14 days and spend it at the Hawksbill resort in Antigua. A very nice place.

It's about time someone mentioned a good nap.
Vacation naps at 2:00pm are priceless.

Works for me. But I'd probably be drinking and smoking at a local pool hall where I could enjoy the a/c as well.

BigAl_SC 07-01-2009 05:12 PM

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
My month would depend on money!

Normal money! I'd hit the road, herf with everyone, see the tourist attractions, national parks ect., maybe a small cruise.

Large money! I'm on a month long cruise to Europe and the Med.

Spend 3 or 4 days with the niece and nephew then up north camping smoking cigars around the camp fire:dr

If I had a month off I would......well I would......uhhhh...Actually I will never have a month off but you should enjoy the hell out of your family and smoke a ton of cigars.:tu

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
These are exactly the things I was going to say to do. Anything and everything you can do with the kids and SO. All those things you said you'd play with them in a minute and forgot to get around to. Find some new stuff to explore with them.

So sayeth the part time dad who told his own 'ok, in a minute' and got distracted so we couldn't play the game the last night I got to see him before he headed to Cub Scout camp without me cuz work won't let me. (learnin the important stuff the hard way)

rizzle 07-11-2009 08:44 AM

Re: What would you do with 1 month off?
 
Fish, boat, smoke cigars, drink adult beverages, sleep, golf, watch bikinis, work around the house. I think that about covers it.

I've been doing this since 1996,,,retired and loving it but it's not for everyone. I take cruises or travel,,,play golf, ride my motorcycle and do yardwork and smoke cigars. Retirement is everything I envisioned.
