Really, that’s my vacation this year: stay at home and watch videos! Mostly DVDs actually, as you can imagine, but with the new media server in place and attached to the network at home, I’ll be consuming plenty of online videos, too. There’s an endless supply at sites like mevio, and they tend to be a tad more entertaining and involved than the rubbish spouted out over at Youtube these days. Maybe with all this time on my hands I can create my own video show, add to the fun while I have the time.

So why am I not sunning myself in Mexico this year? I just can’t afford it, so it’s stay at home, be thoroughly lazy, catch some rays on the balcony - if there are any - and simply chill out as much as possible.
