Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And we're complaining because it's only 12 days.
My university sucks. ::pouts::
Buuuyyyyy eeeeeeeet!
Hmph. Not until I get my flex reimbursement and see what money I get for Xmas. And even then there's no way I can buy it all. I'll have to remember that site for Valentine's Day.
On a grammar note (per a recent conversation here or in bitches) was that a correct use of effect and affect?
Yep! Well done.
I think I'm a hugger, but I've become so paranoid about offending a non-hugger accidentally that I wind up seeming more standoffish and non-huggy than I'd otherwise be.
I would actually like less time off over the winter break. I get really tired of my kids, especially last year when we didn't travel. But I can see the value in shutting down the heat and stuff.
One of my goals today is get receipts for my FSA turned in. As I was looking through our company website, I discovered that there is some unadvertised company matching FSA $. Plus there is something called an HRA that has a very large amount listed as available for reimbursement. I have no clue what the HRA is or if I really have access to that money. If so - woot! Have sent a note off to HR saying WTF (in nicer language, of course).

Heh. I'm not actually anti-hug in a non-work environment. But I am awkward and shy, so it comes off looking like the same thing.
I'm a hugger, but I kind of open my arms from a distance. That way people can step in and hug or offer a hand to shake instead.
In (hopefully unrelated) news the child molester next store was arrested last night for possession of assault rifles and dealer quantities of meth.

Stealth huggers.
We cannot roll over more than 3 days of vacation and then we must use them by March of the next year, so no one here can build up a huge stash. I have always used all of my vacations days whereever I have been, do not understand not taking days off.
As for the people in this office who always seem to be out? A couple of them actually do steal days and I hate them with a fiery hot passion. In fact, as admin, I will sometimes override the system and enter their abscenses which auto sends them out an email.

Yikes! I hope that works out as an improvement for the neighborhood.
