I have found that it pays to take a "real" vacation. I shut down my office (this year, my son drew a "closed" sign for me), turn off the computer, and get out of my day to day routine by going somewhere that allows me to relax and do nothing. So yes, I do draw a very clear distinction between my work life and my play life. I am amazed how much this re-energizes me. Angela,

I have actually found that sometimes I experience something more fully by stopping and imagining how I'd describe it in an article or fictional scene. Maybe the key is just letting yourself pay attention to your vacation, and making sure there's a clear distinction between your work life and play life. Right? This is an interesting philosophy.
