I did it!  As of right now, I’m officially on vacation until the Monday after Thanksgiving!  I just sent off my last work-related emails and am about to pack up my things.  My flight to Paris leaves Sunday night.  Between now and then, all I have to do is sing at a dress rehearsal and two concerts, pack for my trip, pick up Amanda from the airport, do my hometeaching, clean my apartment, do laundry, winterize my plants for a week’s absence, and call Mom to wish her a happy birthday.  Not necessarily in that order.  Fun, fun, fun!
