That's okay, I was totally gonna let you win.
Or lose.
Whichever would have been better for you.
But if there's any way I can help build your morale so that you can ask for and receive your well deserved three week vacay with Jon, please let me know.
Everybody gets vacation time after a year. It's a rule. I wish we could get you some felix felicitatus because you absolutely deserve 3 weeks, all you need is the confidence to demand it.
HFC GELATO EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!!!!
High fructose corn gelato? Ewwww.
I think I'll do the Typo Boy suggested email route tomorrow. My boss is out of the office on Tuesdays (WFH) so I will have a reason to email instead of walking the 4 feet to her desk. I think I'll also discuss with Jon if it has to be 3 weeks. Like, maybe if I gave up Goa for my birthday (but I totally want to do Goa on my birthday!) if we could do 2 or 2 1/2 if my boss says 3 is unacceptable.
Also, thanks everybody! Now I just need a kick in the pants tomorrow to make sure I do it.

I will kick your pants! But in a non-Rumbley way.
tallying this months time sheet (paid monthly sucks btw). Seems I've racked up 11.7 DAYS of comp time already. Not bad for 6 weeks on the job. I'll just hold on to that TYVM. Since I don't need to give tons of advance time or paperwork to take it, I'll save that for those slow days to leave early.
DJ, I nod at what other wrote. You and Jon totally deserve. Best of luck in the asking phase.
Sean, envy is not a strong enough word. While I haven't played AC2 yet (just the first one), I am in awe at your following the game. Very cool, in an ubber geeky way.
ND, I hope things pick up for you soon. Cabin fever sucks. It's not like you are stuck at home, where there are always chores to do. You are stuck in a cabin, literally! I second Pix suggestion, try your hand at Yoga or Tai Chi.
ETA:
Almost forgot to say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEC! Wow, both of you that close? That's so cute!
However, it does have a medieval arms and armor museum, wich allows you to touch and wear the arms and armor.
SQUEEE!
Hubby would love it. Hell, so would I.
Loving Sean's updates.
I just got back from grocery shopping. I know that my schedule the next few weeks will be totally full of preparing for dissertation defense, so I got a whole bunch of stuff that I can either microwave or use for making sandwiches. Also got a few shelf-stable microwavable things to keep in my office for when I need a meal that I didn't plan for.
