Coming back from vacation

I have to say this was one of the most relaxing vacations I've had in a while, and I think it worked out well that we'd planned out a trip that wasn't completely filled with Must Do/See/Experience things. We did have things planned out for each day for the most part, but they were essentially 'go out to eat' or 'see this movie' or 'do some shopping' and that was pretty much it. (Not including a few minor errands like laundry and so on.)
It got me thinking about a few things, really. The first one is that come Monday I'll be returning back to the Day Job...and not dreading it. I'm still appreciating the fact that I work at a place where I'm not dreading dealing with an email inbox that's been through the wars. I stopped by the store today to get next week's schedule and while they say it's been a bit busy especially with a few call-outs, it hasn't exactly been terrible.
The second one is that I'm reminded of those school and college vacations of yore, where I'd look forward to Not Doing Anything to essentially get my head back in working order. I'm kind of glad that I'm not in that situation any longer, considering my head is in a MUCH better working order than those days of yore. It's not often that I come back from vacation feeling rested and looking forward to another cycle of work and socializing.
Anyhoo, I have two and a half more days of this vacation so I'm going to enjoy them while I can!
