trip or not to trip

...there was supposed to be a company outing tomorrow, which in itself was already rescheduled from a previous set date.

it was meant to be a day trip, with a departure hours before sunrise, to a province about four to six hours away north. black sand (or volcanic ash) beaches, fronting the south china sea...

oh, and scheduled events. hour for breakfast, hour and a half swimming, hour and a half lunch, hour and a half group games!?, hour and a half swimming, an hour for afternoon snack / pack up, then home back to here in the south of the metro.

i do wonder why it can't be just a free-form activity: bring people there, mingle or not, eat (definitely), swim maybe, sunburn always a possibility.

the structured activity bit, perhaps works for some; not really for me (and, i suspect, most of us on the, shall we say, artistic, side of things).

at any rate, email came in just a while ago: trip rescheduled, but no specific date (initially was supposed to be thursday to friday next week).

anyway, and so the suspense continues.
