I expect to be away most of the second week in December.  Specifically,
I'll be leaving on the 12th and returning on the 15th.

Department of Frivolous Commands:  absence(1) fills out a Zoology absence
form, and typesets it on the laser printer.  See manual page.

Absence(1)'s form has been altered internally to permit running it off
as a blank.  (You could get close before, but it insisted on putting a
tick mark in one of the boxes regardless.)  Absence(1) has been twiddled
to match.  No user-visible changes, except that I documented the -d
option (which was in there all along, but got forgotten when I wrote the
manual page).
