Poll Question
I was discussing something with a friend today* and was told that this friend and em's spouse annually take week long separate vacations. They also take vacations together. Both are high-powered lawyers in a relatively large urban center.
I was surprised by this. My surprise caused my friend surprise. Hence, we thought that we'd submit this to the arbiters of all that is normal.
This is a 3 part poll.
1. Do you and your spouse take separate vacations? If yes, for weekends or longer?
2. Do you have kid(s)? If yes, do(es) the kid(s) go on the separate vacations?
3. Does your spouse work outside of the home?
In the tradition of Chef, I'll answer my own poll.
1. We will each occasionally go away for a night or 2. She goes to church retreats generally. I go boozing with my friends.
2. Yes. No they do not.
3. My spouse is a homemaker.
I don't see my family often enough because of work which is why the concept of a separate vacation was odd to me.
*We all know that this means that I was IMing with someone who I've never met in real life, right?
