Good News, Bad News, GREAT News

I got my computer back.. Thats the good news.... not such a good report to give... all the programs that got by working at the MacStore- iPhoto,Photoshop, Ms Office.....gone...to replace all of them will actually cost more then having my computer fixed. Its disheartening but in do time I'll get them back. My boss asked if I had heard anything about my computer and I said no...but I'm taking donations... she gave me a quarter :-P I do have the program I got for Christmas that hopefully I'll still be able to work on the blog templates I've promised people.

I have some totally great news though... or at least great news to me. Mom, and I and I think Joleesa were planning on going to Bethel for their revival w/ Jeremy and we would be leaving on the last flight out on Friday... well we've had an amazingly nice summer and the president and treasure of Hickel Investment (the top guys over me) has been very generous on making sure we get to enjoy this amazing weather by allowing us to leave early w/ pay. Well Accounts Receivables has a hard time leaving early during statement time do to deadlines so they've always allowed us to comp the time. On Thursday Bob Hickel gave us two hours and I debated using it or comping it because I was planning on going to work out at the gym so there really was no point using it. I went to put my time slip in my drawer to use some other day and I noticed several other times slips...I knew I had a couple hours or so. Turned out to be a grand total of 5 1/2 hrs. Someone suggested using it to get a partial paid vacation day but I can't afford to lose any money. But decided to put what already wasn't used up towards the that Friday so I could leave earlier. But my boss said to just to take it all off and that she would authorize any over time I want. So I get to leave out Thursday after work :D but it gets better... due to Mr Hickel giving even more time off with pay I now have a paid vacation day.

I don't know who's all available on Friday during the day but it would be SOOOO coool to go fishing... I really want to go fishing... well drifting so that I dont have to pay for a license hehe

:-S Next week is going to be just lovely- I'm authorized for 8 hrs of overtime. but that means $$$$

I'm heading home now to take a nice long shower to ease my sore muscles from working out. Anyone know of anything one can do to get rid of bruises :-S I've got several and they are sore and nasty looking.... but working out is worth it it feels so good to be active.
