I haven't taken a vacation since before college. Not much to cry over, but it's telling that the longest time I've spent out of my area is when we went to Wisconsin last fall for my cousin's wedding and I was gone overnight. Seems all the vacations going on in my family involve my parents going to random places while I'm in school. Even during summer.

It's not that I'm, you know, angry about it or anything. It's just...it's nice to get away and go places. But I also understand that I don't have the funds to exactly support myself going someplace; not since I lost my job at the university. It's something I completely accept. And hey. I'm only 20. There's still a long time to go.

My dad just sent me an e-mail asking me where I'd like to go during spring or summer break. There were talks about me and my parents going to Disney World over spring break, but it was always a little "ehh". The thing about me and them is that I like...doing stuff. I want to go on rides and goof off and have fun. The last trip I took with them was the last vacation I took - to Williamsburg, Virginia, and while that was a better trip than most, it was still just a bit weird. Most likely it's 'cause I haven't exactly settled into being an adult. Alternatively, they're older than me and want to do different things. It's just how it is.

So while Disney World sounds fun, and while I've always had a teensy bit of resentment for my parents and my oldest brother going there when he was a kid, but never when my family was the whole of five, I haven't exactly been excited to go. It just seems like it'll end up as another one of "those" vacations.

There was a weird alternative in my dad's e-mail, and that was the option for me to go...anywhere. He asked if there was anyplace I, by myself, wanted to go. And that's not really the kind of thing I can answer right away, because I have to think.

Where do I want to go on vacation? That's a loaded question...
