So I got a nastygram from the partners at work last week. Essentially, it said
"Take some vacation days, or you're going to lose them".
Turns out I have like 220+ hours of accrued vacation time. Looks like I'll be
taking Wednesdays off for the forseeable future, at least through the summer. I
can probably use it anyhow -- I think I'm hitting a little bit of teh
burnout.
Since I had the day off, and I just happened to have grain handy, I brewed
this:

next recipe. |
