F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

The status is NOT quo.

There's a small possibility that ND's cruise work may get shifted, in which case we might both be able to attend. I'm all eight ball: "Answer unclear, ask again later."

So I can't book anything yet (and may not spend the night if ND can't come anyway--money is tight and Providence is less than an hour from my mom's house). But I'm hoping we can come.

It's looking pretty unlikely for me now, though I won't know for absolutely sure until I get my appointment with the chief torturermaxillofacial surgeon.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Reservations made. I'll be in Providence RI from the afternoon of June 25th through the afternoon of June 27th, staying at the Hampton Inn downtown.

Hope to see you there.

Our wings are not tired.

Made reservations for Friday and Saturday night at the hotel. May stay around longer, but have friends to stay with.

Sweeeet!

Alright, I'm still hanging on to some spare rooms. As soon as someone can't reserve what they need contact me ASAP and I'll hook you up.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Crap, work is telling me i have to give back my vacation time to improve my training process or some such bullocks. Whilst i fight this insanity, i'm having to put all my travel plans on hold, and will most likely end up missing the festivities this year which peeves me mightily :(

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

work is telling me i have to give back my vacation time to improve my training process or some such bullocks

WTF? I never heard of having to "give back" vacation time.

Yeah, they make trainees do that sometimes, the thought is that taking more than few days off slows down momentum in the training process. True, but my Mom might drop dead of sadness and betrayal if i reneg on plans to visit her! If they were really concerned they should never have approved me getting three consecutive weeks off when i requested the time back in January. Jerks.

Vacation time is part of your compensation. They're doing it wrong. Perhaps even illegally so.

My hunch is she's not losing the time, just the ability to take it in a three-week chunk. At least I would hope that's the case.
