Oh yeah, I forgot to tell all of ya: I finally put in for my vacation time today!
We are leaving home on 9/13, so I'll have to leave work early that day to catch our flight. Then we won't be returning home until 9/25. So I'll miss a week and a half of work. My boss can be pretty grouchy sometimes so I was waiting until I caught him in a really good mood. Today, he was in a really good mood, so I took advantage of that and he didn't say ANYTHING about how long I'd be gone. And the best part is: the day we are leaving is the day he'll be getting back from his Alaskan cruise. (Not sure which cruiseline...I was so nervous about requesting a week and a half off...didn't want to stay in his office too long, so I kept the conversation short and sweet) So I won't have to deal with him for at least three weeks...if not an entire month!
