I love the ocean too, and am planning my own beach side vacation.mumbaigirlTue, 10 Apr 2007 09:18:50 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289907@ Jeffrey - Hope you are having a fabulous vacation too! Your advice sounds about right...<br><br>@ Abi - Very interesting article. Yes, maybe what I desperately needed was to just turn off completely. I have to say though, the beach is much more pleasurable than watching that chunk of cheese! :)<br><br><br>@ Libertarian - I remember that line - fabulous. And I feel as relaxed as he looked in that scene.<br><br>@ Ei - Ah, massage on the beach - perfection defined. I wonder if I could have gotten them to erect some sort of screen so that I could have done that. Too late... but an idea for next time...<br><br>@ TGFI - Sorry! Even when on the beach, my thoughts are with you, wishing you luck on your thesis...ShripriyaSun, 08 Apr 2007 15:21:26 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289903Sorry to inform, I am compelled to take you off my blogroll, lest the jealousy consumes me and I do something rash.<br><br>grrrThe_Girl_From_IpanemaSat, 07 Apr 2007 12:58:49 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289904What would be perfect is a massage on the beach. :-)eispy30Sat, 07 Apr 2007 10:15:55 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289902Hmmm ... I suddenly *detest* working :-). "Office Space" captures the thought perfectly. In response to "what did you do yesterday?", the lead guy says, "I did NOTHING. And it was everything I dreamed it would be!".libertarianSat, 07 Apr 2007 09:43:04 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289906Looks like what you *really* needed was the tedium. You don't need the beach when you can get a lot of it -- and more! -- on the web. I recommend some of the sites mentioned in <a href="http://technology.guardian.co.uk/news/story/0,,2048813,00.html" rel="nofollow">this piece</a>. Alexandra Topping has done all the research so we don't have to!AbiSat, 07 Apr 2007 07:12:13 -0000http://shripriya.com/blog/2007/04/07/i-get-it-now/#comment-3289905Cheers from our beach vacation on the north shore of Hawaii.<br><br>I'm not a huge fan of the heat or the outdoor tedium either...the way to make the beach fun is to bring along a few rounds of beer and a novel. And to keep your trip down to 2-3 hours max.Jeffrey McManusSat, 07 Apr 2007 04:02:27 -0000
