Mimi Books a Vacation From Vacation Planning

A fictional comedy from CyberBabiez. The characters and events are invented.

Mimi wanted three days without an itinerary. She found a resort called Absolutely Nothing.

The booking form asked what time she preferred to do nothing.

'Whenever,' she wrote.

Whenever was fully booked. They offered Tuesday at two.

On arrival, she received a schedule of optional relaxation workshops. Skipping a workshop required a form explaining her preferred alternative relaxation.

Mimi escaped to a quiet bench behind the office. She watched a leaf move across the pavement.

The manager found her twenty minutes later.

'Wonderful concept. Unstructured bench time. May we add it to the brochure?'

Mimi surrendered the bench and walked to the bus stop.

The bus was delayed. Nobody knew when it would arrive.

At last, she thought, a company that truly understands doing absolutely nothing.
