Life Status Report

I just completed the final exam for my summer course yesterday. Hooray!

So, I get about a week off (only having work, and not having a class) and then we leave for Costa Rica.

In case you’re too lazy to look at my archives to see when we’re going, I’ll tell you here. We’re leaving a week from tomorrow (July 31) and coming back two Mondays later (August 9). While we are gone, we will not be reachable. Email to me will sit in my inbox. Phone calls will sit on our answering machine. My pager from work will be turned off and sitting here.

I received word today that my time off of work will be paid vacation time, which is quite good. It was originally going to be unpaid, but recent changes in their vacation policy make it slightly better, so I can get paid for not going to work. Working full-time can be very nice.
