Being self-employed, vacations are hard to plan, so a pandemic doesn't change much.
Since I travel so much for business (well, normally), I grab mini vacations. If I am In NYC for work, I will try to spend a few extra days there, and walk around and eat at NYC restaurants I've been wanting to try. If I am In LA, I stay extra days at a friend's house, hang out with him, have lunch with my good friend and mentor, Al Satterwhite, and go eat some street food.
I haven't been able to do that so far in 2020. Ihave to spend next week in Houston dealing with family business, but plan to go to Port Arthur for a couple days before coming home. Hang out with my best friend, cook with his cajun wife, and slap his son (my nephew) around about taking better care of his parents -- just for fun. He knows when I'm being serious, which is not that often. He's a good kid (21), but I sometimes have to open a can of whoopsass on him. He knows I love him like my own son, so he gets it.
