And she said, well, you must've had a good weekend. And I was like, yeah, it was good. And she said, this was like an offhanded comment. She said, I'm pretty sure the key to happiness is living as many days in a row like that as you can. And it was actually like really operational. Like I could, I was like, I can use this. Like, what are the good days?

How do I live as many of those days in a row as I can? And so I've, you know, I've been attacked for like saying that I don't really enjoy going on vacation very much. And it's because like, I just want to get, I just want to get back to doing the thing that I really enjoy doing. And I remember we, Layla and I went to Mexico this year for a week.

And it's always during the week of Christmas because no one works and it drives me nuts. And I've just like, I've just given up trying to get, you know, work. Because even if my team will work, because my team will, because they're crazy too, other teams won't. And vendors won't. Anyway. And so while we were there, all I came out with was like, this is for other people and not me.
