Burnout

[56samba]

at it 11 years, never had more than a 2 week break

only had 3 months worth of warchest,

PlanB, take the summer off. the older I get the more extended my between gigs breaks get, consider it a portion of your retirement taken early, the portion where you are dribbling in your porridge unable to remember your own name.
