I'm loving this whole vacation thing that goes along with having a 'big girl' job. Love it!
I took off four days this week - so I left work at noon on Christmas eve, and don't go back to work until January 4th, 2010. Pretty Sweet. We're back in the city now as Jordan had to go back to work yesterday, so i'm just enjoying relaxing at home - having the place to myself.
Speaking of having the place to myself - it's about to end. We wound up finding a new roommate at the ninth hour (those who follow me on twitter probably already knew that). We are still trying to settle the damange deposit and final utilities with Jeff, who's being difficult, but hopefully that will be resolved in short order. New roommmate B-rad, picked up a key yesterday and is planning on moving everything in today at about 2pm.
B-rad wrote us a cheque for his first months rent and half his damage deposit, and next month he'll write one for rent and the rest of his damange deposit. A fair arrangement I think.
ahhh... still on Vacation
