I often dread weekends... this one perhaps a bit more than usual. Today... yes/no decision on funding the Arctic field season at 11am. Then couples-counselling tonight. I wish I'd lined up lunch today, but have been too preoccupied to plan ahead. Tomorrow night... no plans. Some slightly-stressful socializing with the kids in the afternoon. Should have planned ahead, again. Sunday... Father's Day... no plans (sound familiar? heh) other than I need to confront the issues around my father's illness again and give him a call.

Why do other people look forward to weekends? For me, work is generally more satisfying and less stressful... still, three days and it will be over, thankfully.

Because I don't have to get out of bed at 8 AM and trek 20+ miles to the office, and I don't have to sit in on one of the millions of conference calls. It's my chance to get done all the stuff I can't get done during the week because I just don't have time. And because I have a couple of days with nothing necessarily planned.

True... given commute hassles (which I don't have), boredom and too many constraints... and you seemed to have a fun, laid-back workplace!
