Planning

I just realized why I hate planning. I don't necessarily mind the structure, though that can be bothersome too. What I really hate is the selection process for something as simple as a hotel. Add in coupon codes and discount websites and the possibilities become exponential. On top of that add in a rental car and and local sights and you have even more to think about. All the planning almost necessitates a vacation just to unwind from all the choices. It's enough to fry my brain. It's so much easier to know I have a friend in another city and that I can just hop in the car and go visit them. They can tell me what's interesting when I get there. Just me, the open road and a few days to see something new...

Hop on a plane to England and stay with us. We will definitely show you what's fun and lovely and interesting round here. Simple :-)

Planning is something I'm planning on doing more of--it will help me to pay more attention more efficiently to people who might need me and to spend my time more wisely. On the other hand, it's limiting because planning takes the serendipity out life. Just sallying forth with no plan is my default Modus Operandi.
