I write this blog in the second person.

You, you, you.

But ever quarter I publish an out of office message. The one that actually gets sent from my personal email.

Why? Because every quarter, I take a short break. You should, too.

It’s difficult for me to actually practice what I preach. I get in the groove and don’t want to get out.

Instinctively, I want to write and schedule posts for the time while I’m on vacation. But the absence is beneficial for everyone.

So here it is. This my Q3 2016 out of office reply.

It’s similar to this one, this one and this one. But it certainly has evolved.

Enjoy.

All the things you could ever need (while I’m away until 9/12/16)

I’m on break and will be back 9/12/16.

By the time I return, I will be a married man.

I’m excited for the weekend, to celebrate with family and friends. Of course.

But mostly I’m excited to finally call this woman, Shalva, my wife.

You can find a few more details about the wedding right here.

More importantly, the following will probably answer your questions while I’m away:

Answers to your questions

How do I get my Vitamix Starter Kit? Fill out this form to get it sent to you immediately (via Mailchimp).

When’s the best time to get a Vitamix? I’m just about ready to get one. Awesome. You can get one right now for $249 on Vitamix.com and $319 on Vitamix.ca. Best deal I’ve ever seen. Several friends and family have already taken advantage. I wouldn’t wait, though. When they’re gone, they’re gone.

I’d like to offer you my SEO / Web development / penis enlargement services. Are you ready? I really wish I hadn’t sent this autoresponder to people outside my contacts.

Last thing:

95% of my waking hours are spent dedicated to people on the Life is NOYOKE email list. You can get on it right here.
