It’s hard to get the timing of your vacation just right. Take it at the beginning of the summer, and you wind up wishing for another one by the time Labor Day rolls around. Take it at the end of the summer, and your brain is mildly crispy around the edges before you’ve even had a chance to get a sunburn.
If you’re a late-summer vacationer, you’ll appreciate a recent Huffington Post article, which outlines your saga in gifs, the way the internet gods intended.
Inspired by that piece, and our own long-overdue vacations, we bring you a few more ways to tell that it’s long past time for a break:
1. This is your response to every question.
