Ok, I need to take a day off... I just checked my depressing history and I haven't missed a day of posting since October 19, 2002.
For those of you scoring at home, that's over half a year ago 
I need a vacation....

No it's not; it won't be 6 months until Saturday. Don't weaken now. A couple more days should do it. Would be a shame to blow a streak like that now 
Sure your fingers hurt. Knuckles swell up, joints creak. That's expected. You gotta type with pain; that's what winners do.

Ouch, Johnson just signed that fat contract too. I hadn't realized he's been sucking so bad. That's ok, he's got Greg Maddux to keep him company!
Anywho... I'm shocked I haven't missed a day since mid-October, at the very least I didn't think I posted on New Year's Eve. If I recall, I spent the entire day with my gf, helping her with her little party, etc. How did I sneak two posts in? And why lol?

i don't think i can make it through a month without taking off =)
my buddy scypher, co-admin of our server, haden't missed a day at his workplace in years and all of his sicktime / vacation time has piled up so much that he has like over 100 days off that he can use. it's gotten to the point where he is required to take 3 days off per month so he doesn't loose new sick/vacation days =)

Heh, I remember back in the old days when you could save up unlimited amounts of vacation. There was always some old dude who was only working 4 days a week, because he had enough vacation saved up to take off every Friday from now till when he retired in three years. That used to p**s me off so much
