Check this out, and don’t laugh. One article I did long ago lands me on IMDB?

Looking for “freedom from something”? Take some time off. Good luck.
As Chip Scanlan over at The Poynter Institute writes about vacations, the word “vacation” comes from the Latin for just that — “freedom from something.” Scanlan says journalists never take vacations, even when they’re taking time off. They’re still consumed with their beats, or with watching the news on TV, or something….
Then there’s the re-entry blues, which sounds like something straight out of the Space Shuttle Program, but isn’t. You know that “case of the Mondays” Peter Gibbons had in “Office Space?” Yeah, like that, only stronger, because you’ve been off longer.
So a vacation may bring freedom, but the freedom you’re looking for is a freedom for which you must first set the boundaries.
