Okay, so...

The anti-Valentine's Day party hosted by [livejournal.com profile] violetbloom was a success. I will endeavor to get the video of the pinata's death spliced together later this week. (Lara got all the quotes, as evidenced by the use the notebook got.)

Also, I wanted to go on the trip to Northern Italy that [livejournal.com profile] jennies mentioned, but the accounting department was winning that argument - especially since my taxes will require the Annoying Reporting Form that we need to get Mom's financial advisor to help figure out (to cover half a year of the investment account that was emptied when I bought the house).

However, I have discovered this weekend that the money should not be an issue now and Dr. Sandona said there were still slots open. Eeee! Two weeks in Italy! (Now all I have to do is figure out how to keep from totally running out of leave, or I may have to bail out of G2006.)

Anyway, got home late, must attempt to crash soon so I get up on time. Need to get in early enough to start building up credit hours...

COngrats on the trip.

Also, you are NOT ALLOWED to bail on the Gathering ;)

Hence the "getting credit hours" part. :)

As it stands now, Florida + Italy = all my annual leave going *poof* unless I build up the credit hours.

BANZAI!!!!!!

Glad to have you aboard. (Also: you managed to get Dr. Sandona on the phone? Cool beans. I couldn't rustle up contact info for anyone but the travel agency. Then again, they probably hid their email/phone numbers someplace insidiously sneaky, like the front of the form...)

Oooo Italy!

Go woman, go. Never turn down an opportunity to travel abroad.

Glad to see things are humming along for you.

Cheers,
