    I did that and it fucking killed me.

    I got today though to the 26th off. After that Im back to work, even New Years Eve which always suck. Does the average worker even get a decent holiday these days?

    Old - broken down - don't work - live on your tax money - a drain on society - worthless parasite on the VA - should be taken out and shot - not good for nothing - just another leach on the dole - Grin - but I do have a little fun here and there.

    Well, being that I'm a stay at home mother/housewife, I'll still be working as always. ;)

    My husband is always off on the weekends, but this upcoming week he'll get Monday off as well which is nice, so it will be a 3-day weekend. He always gets holiday pay.

    But normally he works Monday-Friday, 7:00 AM-5:00 PM, although this morning he had to go in earlier to get a huge bid that he's majorly stressing out over by 10 this morning. I think he left around 5:30 this morning? I don't know, I was out of it. I vaguely remember him kissing me, telling me he loved me, and to have a good day, then he squeezed my bottom and left. I immediately zonked back out until 6:30. ;)

    I've got one day left on my current (real) job and then I'm free until I start my next gig on the 7th. Its the first time in 10 years that I've had NYE off and only the 2nd time I've had Christmas off over that span - I work in the hotel/restaurant biz.

    Next week, I am going to bartend for 3 nights next week out in the ski down that I lived in for a long time, but that's not really work - its just having fun making drinks for friends of mind and seeing old friends before I move out of state at the end of the month.
