Fresh when it gets here from

What are your plans for the summer months? Do things get busier for you this time of year, or slow down? Do you go on vacation, or stick close to home?
Vacation? What's that? Oh, I could use a few days off, but it ain't gonna happen anytime soon.
We're so swamped right now that getting away for more than a weekend is problematic. And even then it's a weekend combined with something else, like a convention appearance for me or a bowling tournament for Chris.
I'm busy with planning for FenCon and doing jobs that come my way. Paul is busy on a project at the office. Chris is working to get his transfer approved so he can start taking classes in the next summer session. In other words, we'll be close to the house.
Extra credit: Do you do much summer TV viewing? Is there anything in particular you're looking forward to watching?
We're looking forward to Torchwood this summer, but that's about it. Our local PBS station is in another pledge drive. ("Give us money so we can rerun the same music programs for ANOTHER five years!" Actually, I do support my local public television station. I do have to wonder how much money they can raise off of airing the same "events" over and over. I just go find a book to read.) Once in a while there's a good movie, but it's generally on the station we don't want to pay $25 a month to get. So there ya go.
