Morning everyone! Our company Christmas luncheon is today - the CEO sends everyone home afterwards but I know we (my boss and I) will have to go back to the office because of a few things we're working on. Oh well - hopefully I'll get to run into everyone at the after-party after work!
Have a good day!

For the first time in more than a year I really don't want to work and want the weekend to be here asap.
Less then 2 hours to go.
We have our Christmas Party next week. And the good news is that we are closed between Christmas and New Year's.

Today is my last day of work before taking 3.5 weeks off for vacation... I'll be in lovely Australia where it is the dead of summer![]()
WOoooooooooooo... today is going to be pretty busy... setting my out of office reply, setting my voicemail, etc

Almost 25 hours... 6 hours to San Fran, 4 hour layover, then 14.5 hour nonstop to Sydney. I have this fear that I"m goign to end up on some desserted island, like LostOriginally Posted by Bub

I don't know how I"m going to get through this.. the longest flight I've ever been on was 4 hours.
Well, there will me movies - that makes time go by fast. If you can read that'll help too; it makes me nautious. Doing word puzzles or Sudoku helps me a lot. IPOD with soothing music may help; maybe you can even sleep a bit.Originally Posted by chanman7483

I bought this for my husband for Christmas so I haven't used it yet and don't know what airlines accommodate it but it's worth a look. I believe Best Buy carries them.Originally Posted by chanman7483

Great idea if you're travelling to Australia. I suppose you can check online to see which airlines have places to plug them in.Originally Posted by yankeebot

Easy week for me this week. Glad to be back on track with relatively straightforward and easy work.
I usually leave around 3 on Fridays but the office officially closes at 3 today for the Christmas holiday, so maybe I'll leave at 1.
What's everyone's plans for the weekend? Is everyone travelling? As a jew, I have no reason to go away for the weekend. Just me and my wife and NYC. We have a Christmas party tonight in Riverdale. I'm trying to get out of it.
Leno had a good joke a couple of nights ago.....about how a Jew converted to Christianity this week because he hadn't bought his wife a gift yet and he needed more time.Originally Posted by YankeeClemens22

It was then I knew I'd had enough,
Burned my credit card for fuel
Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand
I'm working today.
Then I have to drive 3 hours to NY in the rain.![]()

It's a ghost town in my office. Why did I decide to come in today? Because I'm an idiot.

Do you get a number of vacation days to use within a certain period of time?Originally Posted by JWHIII
Let the kids play.

Our vacation time goes from Sept 1st - Aug 31st, so I didn't have to burn time before the year end, but I'll still rather be home playing with all my new things I got yesterday.Originally Posted by Bub
I guess when I'm off two weeks in July, I'll be thanking myself.

I don't know, my department is here and that's it for the office, if it was any quieter, I'd fall asleep at my desk.
I actually can't fall asleep at my desk, though, because it's freezing in here!

Have had a very effective and busy week, but very energy draining.
We are trying to have several people to change their behaviour, and that's not easy I can tell you.
But the good news is: it's almost weekend. Officially three hours to go. In reality I think four or five.

I sincerely hope I can rely on my own countdown. First kid hits college in the fall of 2008, last in the fall of 2011. I suppose I can squeeze by on the pension as long as they go to State colleges or live at home and commute to college.

Four hours to go till the weekend kicks off.
I already worked about 45 hours this week so I'm officially in overtime.
Tomorrow test driving several cars so I can choose a lease car, Sunday going to a soccer game in Amsterdam.
