The PLAN (tm) is to take 6 months off, travel around, think about things. I really want to change the rhythm of my live, lose some weight, do a four corners tour of the US, see Europe, dance, etc (so the time off will fill easily.) But what will I do when I get back? What do I want to do? Time to go retry "What Color is your Parachute" and look at teaching again.

What I want to do when I'm gone...and the FEAR.

The FEAR: (Freakin' Early Autonomy Reaction) is that I won't be able to find a decent job when I get back. Thus, that my desire to go see the world will lead me to a stressful no-money period...and I've spent a long time building up resources, and although I have wonderful friends, I need to figure out how to make it work if the jobs just aren't there, as they may not be. (But infrastructure and Sales can't be outsourced, in truth. )
What to do when I'm gone? See the US. Practice Aikido and SCA fighting. Dance, in Prague and Belgium (dance tour) and at Burning Man and... It's not my dream to be in Antarctica. Perhaps in Europe. Yeah, an SE/TME/(manager) for a local company working the international arena...(shiver).
Thanks for the comments!

What will kill you is the lack of trying. I belive, and have pretty strong evidence to support, is that if youfocus on the bad stuff then it comes to pass, the good stuff will also come to pass (although never the way you expect) when you foucs on it.

So go, fight, tarvel, visit and then live some more.
