So...an FYI/ Reminder to all...
Sep. 28th, 2008 12:27 pmStarting tomorrow (Monday, Sept 29) I will be away for work M-F...every week until December, at the least.
I'll be getting home late Friday, and will be leaving early Monday. Which means I will only be home for 2 days.
This will effectively suck. I will need to get all my chores, paperwork, bills, and laundry squared away every weekend, and try to find time to relax, spend time with my poor kitties, and spend time with Rob...and every one else, including friends and family.
I just want to warn you all...no matter how much you want to see me, or how much I want to see you, it might just not happen. I'm going to do my best to see people when I can, but most long drives are going to be extremely difficult and stressful.
The plus side of this, is that I will be getting at least $100 in overtime every week, and almost $200 in per diem. The hotel has breakfast (but I'm bringing cereal because they don't have good ones), and I bought a microwave off of craigslist (brand new, $30; The hotel charges $5 per night to rent a microwave) for my hotel room, meaning I will be spending almost nothing on meals. The hotel also has a gym and a pool, so I can hopefully get my exercise. So I'll be bringing in lots of extra money (to buy a couple of toys, and pay off credit cards with), and getting in shape. Also, Rob will be able to focus on homework more, since I won't be home to distract him, etc.
Another plus is that it looks like they won't be able to enforce the 6-day screw on me...there are no suitable hotels in the area, so I get to keep my full per diem (which I won't be spending).
I will have internet access at the hotel, so I will be getting emails and stay updated on LJ, but don't necessarily expect to hear from me here.
Yup. See you in December.
