You answered your own question: you were supposed to go on vacation.
Yup. I was supposed to work half days today and tomorrow and take off Dec. 25-27, so of course yesterday afternoon opposing counsel filed his response to my application for writ of cert, and I need to reply by Tuesday. So I’ll be working all week. That’s how it goes.

Y'all. I had a deal closing December 31 that got pushed to Jan 6! This has never happened to me! I am beyond excited. Now I have time for the three other deals on my list...but still!
I feel you. I’ve never been this busy this close to Christmas.
I had one that was convinced we were going to close 12/31 and we just got the SPA three days ago. Then the structure changed. But mercifully, at 2 pm today the client realized we were never going to make it and decided to slow their roll. SO glad they made the call on the 23rd and not the 26th.
@A2 it’s a Christmas miracle, truly
Same thing here - this WFH period has turned everyone into work monsters, because no one is taking vacations. Also, I’m just tonight finalizing negotiations on two deals that I turned the drafts on back in July. Haven’t heard from anyone since.

Sounds like you need to move up your vaca to start today.
Note to self pandemic or not... I’m reminding myself bad idea to go on vacation end of the year since I’m having to work (answer emails & calls). 2021-Going off to an island and forget to bring charger.
Because it’s December. Happens every year to us even if the YE is arbitrary for the matter
