How many days did you request off from work to spend playing Cataclysm?

I didn't request off any days, actually. I usually did. I still ordered my Collector's Edition, though and plan to pick it up at midnight.
Here's why (for those of you bored/interested enough in reading up on another fellow gamers Cataclysm plans.)
My goal this time around isn't to have a level 85 main right away, so I'm not in any hurry to experience all the new content. Instead, I plan to have one of every class at level 60+. I may even try to get them all to 85, but I doubt I'll have the time/ patience for that.
Cuurently, I own:
80 Draenei Death Knight (female)
- Jewelcrafting/Skinning
- This is my WotLK main
70 Undead Warlock (male)
- Alchemy/Herbalism
- Will race-change to Orc if I take it to end-game
- This was my Vanilla main
70 Blood Elf Paladin (male)
- Enchanting/Mining
- This was my TBC main
70 Troll Warrior (female)
- Will race-change to Worgen if I take it to end-game
- This was a TBC alt I didn't do much with
51 Dwarf Shaman (male)
- Minng/Skinning/Archaeology
- Was a Draenei that I started when I first heard about the new Race/Class combos, and I wanted to experience some of the Alliance leveling progression before Deathwing changed it all. I leveled him up to the Hinterlands so I could park him at Aerie's Peak and race-change him to a Dwarf for a true Wildhammer birth :-) Super geeky, I know.
I plan to level the following to 60+:
Gnome Rogue (male)
- Engineering/Mining
Troll Druid (male)
Goblin Mage (female)
Undead Priest (female)
Human Hunter (female)
Tauren Paladin (male)
- I already own a Paladin, but I feel should level a Tauren of some kind. I consider my Belf Paladin to be the peak of my WoW gaming days, so it'd be fun to revisit that with all the new changes. And c'mon. It's a holy cow :-) Can't go wrong with that.
Night Elf ? (female)
- Not sure which class I'd go with, but if I have one of every other race leveled I should probably have a Nelf, too. I like the new load screen art with the gree-haired Nelf female in a white dress, so maybe a priest? I tend to enjoy melee characters more, though :-/

I actually requested off Dec 7-10, to give myself a six-day weekend.
However, just found out today that I might be getting a free 7-day cruise. One of my roommates was having a family cruise, and had paid for his mom to go, but she can't now - so there's a spot open, and if I can get the time off, it's mine. ;)
:P The only sad thing is that I actually have to kind of fight with myself that a free cruise is greater than six uninterrupted days of WoW...

I considered it, but if I did my wife would expect me to work on the house!

None. It's a video game. I'd rather do silly things like make money and spend time with family and friends. I'm weird like that though.

i took one day plus a work-from-home :)
i needed to take 4-5 of them in December anyway or risk losing them on 1/1/11, and i really don't need an overly-long Xmas break, so hooray for WoW time!

I got an exam next friday. Yes, 3 days after Cataclysm. Gnub is not amused. -.-

Can't - I already scheduled my remaining vacation time for the week of Christmas, months ago. :(

I love working Holidays ;) when I worked on the assembly line at the local ford plant around here I made $81/hr (triple time ftw) and we would always work a 10hr day. Now that I work at a hospital where people heavily rely on me, its almost impossible to get any days off XD

0 days. Mostly because I have school, not work ;p
And I wouldn't take days out / skip school just to shoot at a silly achievement in a videogame that everyone will forget about a few weeks later.

I've started a new job recently, so I haven't got much leave. But I live real close to work so I can be at home at 5:05pm and have plenty of time to play after work.
