Vacation Time? Wait, What?

[ase]

At the rate I'm going, I'll accrue 80 hours of rollover vacation time and another 25 or 30 of use-or-lose, but I have no money. So says my boss. What should I do with no travel budget and the (minimum) three days I absolutely, positively must take off before December 31st?

(This is the year I make myself a little miserable with penny-pinching, so next year I can have guilt-free toys like a dSLR and a car. A cheap car. Maybe a zipcar membership.)

Off to bike and contemplate the cons and further cons of running away to Nag's Head for a week. Yay, exercise!

Boston! I could be persuaded. I'm going to talk to my supervisor and my boss, and see how to work around already-scheduled vacation time. People seem to think I'm going to want time around Thanksgiving and Christmas. What I'm really thinking about is cities where I have people I want to see and/or crash space, transportation costs, and how nice DC weather is in the fall. Possibly I'll blow a couple of days on local-ish bike trips, and the rest on three day weekends in different states.
