Oh, I have tons of responsibilities... the issue is it's impossible to plan vacation days around them given I'll never know what work needs to be done any given day until right up to that day.

Basically I just know when I don't have a lot of work to do the next day (like right after a project/deadline) and use that as my sick day. I'd never leave my co-workers or responsibilities hanging... so I pretty much judge by my workload whether or not I can take a 'sick' day. To play video games.
