Day Off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, I am taking today off from work. It's the first time I've done this for anything besides a holiday or vacation to some other state. But the timing is perfect. Grandpa is up in Indiana, so the house is as quiet as a tomb. And I'm about ready to scream from being in an office day, after day, after day.

But what is Melissa going to do with her day off? The primary reason for it is to actually accomplish some writing projects (like editing, and rewriting, and writing letters to publishers so at least they're ready to be mailed when the first chapters are done). But, hey, there's lots of other things to do to enjoy your day off:

• Have a friend over for dinner last night, play Scrabble and watch a movie
• Stay up until midnight - nearly falling asleep on the couch even though Bob Hope is funny
• Sleep late (well, until just after eight...)
• Stay in pajamas until nearly eleven
• Dress in a t-shirt and capris - no nice slacks, skirts, or blouses!
• Write, write, write - imagine, imagine, imagine
• Wash and vacuum car (okay, it's work, but there's just something satisfying about a clean car...)
  
• Have another friend over for dinner and a movie tonight
• Not even think about work!
• Read, read, read
