it's stupid but every year i run the same procedure.
Work gets more relaxed cause yeah vacation time holiday!
On the other hand you see what load of work you still got to do.
It's like turning light on, off again and again.
Anyone else happen to get the same feelings?
Edit: misuse of english

It is called a holiday.
Enjoy it.

I enjoy the holidays. The office gets a little more relaxed as more people are on vacation or away. We don't deploy anything until after the first of the year.
I don't look at my work load as a burden, ever. It's there. I do my sprint's worth of work, and move on.
Happy holidays to you and your family.

Holiday Season: trying to distract us from the approaching onset of winter -
And people smiling and grinning, just for a short time, before they return to their normal unpleasant selves . . . with the caveat that now bitch and moan about the bills they ran up buying excessively and, as often as not, thoughtlessly.
And, it's the same every year - passed down through the generations - whose says stupid isn't hereditary?
Bah, Humbug? Maybe Ol' Ebenezer Scrooge had it right, after all.
Oh - yes . . . . season's greetings!

I like x-mas because of holidays, banquets and a nice year end bonus.
Dear friend: really fat x-mas this year 
Press F1 for help or google it.
Greetings from Germany

Bonus? Here - not in my lifetime 
According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.

My sense of total helplessness was taken beyond any imaginable limit as more and more of his yet-to-be memories resonated with the same memories rushing away from me in the rear-view mirror of the past.
To be reminded how his oncoming clumsy attempts at suicide went awry was to relive my own past ... with the added humiliation of knowing that, as with everything else in my life, I was a failure: agony !
But, the most disturbing thing was my inability to know if he was also infected by my passage through time reversed-from-his.
Was each of us wondering, in some suspension of the arrows-of-time in the temporary eternity of the moment, if, somehow, our lives ... crossing each other's life as temporal shadows ... were: the same ?
Our pinnacles of joy, our troughs of despondence, our heartbreaks, our fervor in feeling full-of-ourselves for reasons profound, or trivial ... our ecstasy, our sober moments of clarity ...
All reflections in some unknown Gods' mirrors ?
... to be continued ...

I just saw a cloud that looked just like a castle!

Just BTW, for the first time ever, last week I saw a cumulonimbus that stereotypically looked exactly like a gargantuan anvil. I could barely manage to keep my eyes on the road I was so awestruck, but being on a scooter, the road had priority.

Parallel things never meet - in a practical sense, can never know one another. I'll even add that they cannot effect one another, either.
Suggestion: Time for you to (re)watch "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe".
On second thought, I don't think I want to get involved in this thread at all. A little creepy inside of someone else's free association.

"in a practical sense, can never know one another" In a practical sense do we ever really know our self(ves) ?
"Parallel things never meet:" well, once-upon-a-time, it was thought that light was a wave, and now we know light is either both wave and particle, or, something else entirely, which, depending on how we are looking, appears as wave, or particle.
If you're a little shy, and need me to charge for the associations, in order to feel free to get involved, just PM me credit-card numbers and validation codes.
Creepiness never hurt fiction, imho.
cheers, Bill

Giving that odd counter-example does not change parallel: it is a defined property. You are free to change the relationship of things to/from parallel as you see fit, and whether true or not, but parallel is parallel.
As for the particle/wave nature of light, this disturbed me when the first femtosecond laser pulses were reported. I realized that they were of short enough duration as to be less than 1/2 wave of the light whose color they were - how can they, then, have a wavelength. (a difficult concept due to uncertainty principle over such a short time span: the monochromicity of laser pulses is long gone).
I asked a conveniently located physicist to explain what this meant. His answer was, in fact, satisfying. He simply pointed out that, at this point, the wave-model of light breaks down.
It is, after all, only a model. Don't worry about it.
It's a good thing that upon awakening I will once again realize I am all there is in the entire universe.

Oh, all right, then. I assumed for a moment you had stopped by for something other than your usual frown.

Fortunately, I'm one of those people who look absolutely gorgeous with a frown. One must also remember the comfort factor and give the customers what they expect and they'll always come back.
Should I dare wear smile . . . the angles dancing on the head of a pin would stop to stare in awe.
And then, of course, there's that unabashed humility.

To be fair if "parallel lines" meet in the Euclidean space then you are going to need to do a lot more adjusting that per your example. That failure would cause all of Geometry to fail and probably have serious ripple effects throughout mathematics and realistically all of the natural sciences as well.
Of course that isn't quite the same thing as parallel universes though.
