Tomorrow begins my staycation. It’s like a vacation, but you don’t go anywhere. At least nowhere that involves extensive traveling and overnight stays. You stay at home. Hence the name.

Sometimes it’s nice to be able to sleep in for a week. While I do love a good vacation and seeing places and things, it’s relaxing to not have an itinerary or schedule but to go places on a whim and to be spontaneous.

I can finally use that gift card to the coffee shop that I got last Christmas. I can visit that record store that closes at 5 pm. I can stay up later without having to worry about being a zombie at work the next day. If I choose, I can do absolutely nothing all day. The options are endless.

It’s fitting that I just finished listening to The Hobbit on Audible. The story is about an unexpected adventure taken by one very set-in-his-ways hobbit. I plan on having a few unexpected adventures myself (hopefully of the good kind).

I will let you know of any hijinks or shenanigans that ensue.
