in reply to I need a vacation
chumley, I have a similar problem, I don't know when I need a break. I'm still using vacation days from last year. I'm a work-a-holic, and I love my job. I think your short answer is to read footpad's list. You have to be able to have fun in life too, so I'm thankful that he reminded me/us of that.
As far as thinking like computers, I wanted to share something that our DBA described to me once. He works with SQL all day long. He can't do anything without thinking of it as a SQL statement. I started to laugh when he first described it.

I just thought I'd share that so you wouldn't think you were alone. I'm guilty of similar things, but not SQL. ;)
