I want to have a birthday party. Do I ask off work the saturday closest to my birthday for it, or do I just make sure to do what I need to do in advance so I don't need to ask for the day off? Or do I go halfway and ask for half the day off?

I know I want off Christmas Eve so I don't need to travel Christmas Day up to PA...if my schedule stays as is, I will have off the 2 days after Christmas as well.

I think I really want to take off work for Winter Solstice...if I do that I know i'll have to cite religious observance....not that I have a problem with doing that, if I do, I will have legitemate plans. I did that back at Summer Solstice...having never requested off of work before on an odd day citing religious observance, I felt a bit weird but there as no issue and since there were no time off slots available, Mike was extra happy that I volunteered to work half the day instead of taking the whole day.

I guess what I feel a little odd about is what I see as me randomly picking and choosing which days I am observing. But what it comes down to I guess is what days actually mean somethign to me. Which...solstices do. If I too off other days that didn't, I would be a hypocrite or something. Really lame at least.

And speaking of holidays...i got this one in my email from Jill...National Celibacy Day

try to get all your stuff done or just take a half day, since you want the other two days off as well?
