Is everyone back to work now?

I was actually back at work last Thursday but fortunately have booked the rest of the week off (no real reason just because I can). Had a cold myself for about 4-5 weeks. It seems to go away for a day or two then come right back again in a slightly different form. Might help if I stop drinking so much at the weekend I guess

Other than that though it seems to be going ok today. Got some stuff to sort before i'm on my break and of course the usual list of jobs that just sit there taunting me... I'll get round to doing them one day.

We were meant to have a holiday?

Being self employed can have it's downfalls, but if all goes well I wont be later this year and around May/July I am taking a break. Then have to adapt to working for someone else *eek* with real hours and do mornings again *double eek*, hmm maybe self emplyed isnt so bad after all

Argggggggggggggggggg, first day of winter quarter at the community college. I just know my political science class is going to be full of hippies . My C programming class is full of nerdy dudes but the good thing is there are a couple of girls . I have a database design class later today at 6pm and it goes till 8:20pm. I know that class is going to be a bundle of fun...

On a brighter note, I got some new hardware for my computer (dual core processor, ddr3 gpu, mobo, ddr2 800 ram) and it is supposed to come in tomorrow! I might be able to play Day of Defeat Source at 1680 by 1050 .

I'm back. I was working pretty much solidly over Xmas - the only days off that I had were Xmas day, boxing day and new years day. I worked every single other day including weekends!

Well, the "Holiday Season" went by pretty fast for me as I worked through it but, oh well, had been fun

That's one of the great things about working for a university - the school is closed between Chrstmas and New Years I hear next year we get two full weeks off just because of where the dates fall (no sense in making us work one day at the start of the week). Hello England and France!

My ex works for a college (ages 13-17 ?) she has 4 weeks off, the kids about 6 weeks.
Is strange the holiday times around the world.
In NZ we get about 6 weeks a year, 4 at xmas (paid), all the public holidays (at least 7 days of those - paid) and 5 days paid sick leave

shhhh, don't tell em that or they will all want to come here

Back in work Monday the 8th, but I am cleaning up loose ends in rediness for a new start.

Just got back to work today... At the very least this removes me from the list of people getting burned-out.
