My dad pointed something out to me yesterday that is so intensely true, I don't know how I never really thought about it. Whenever you have a vacation coming up, the time leadingn up to it is increasingly busy and stressful because of the looming deadline of being away.

This week has been hairy. Late nights and intense work have left me exhausted. I just released a new version of Diego at work and have been scrambling to get it out in time for a little testing before I leave for SIGGRAPH and vacation tomorrow.

But the storm is worth the calm. I am so looking forward to dialing it down and having time to be a bit more sociable, which I would probably have been able to do over the past couple of weeks if I wasn't rushing to get things done before I go on vacation :)
