Well, I'm not going to be sick tomorrow. Since I only accrue PTO at the rate of 3 hours a month, I don't have very many and I might need them for a real sickness or a, say, a vacation to New Orleans.

I am so excited about starting an RPG that I can barely stand it.

I have the desire to make icons but now that I'm back to the free account, it's kind of like torture to have icons I can't use. Oh well - I will survive :P

If anyone gets good gossipy links and pictures to Oscar parties and doingd featuring certain adorable hobbits, let me know, kay?

And there's always the granddaddy of LotR stuff, TORN (http://www.theonering.net)

If I had any decent amount of webspace, I'd upload stuff for ya. Alas, I can only link.

(I really need to list all this in my journal, methinks.)

What RPG are you playing in?

RPG?

[tigerlilyaj.livejournal.com]

What is that? I hope it's nice, since you're so excited. :)
Hope you feel better, too, so you're not sick, rather than "not sick." ;)
New Orleans sounds like a plan. Great people watching.

3 hours a MONTH?! Meaning you only get 36 hours, aka 4 and half days off a YEAR?!

That's inhuman.

Although you do have that summer thing, don't you. Or do you, in this job?

Anyway: grrrrr.

[mcamy.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing vacation and sick leave are separate, and this is personal time. We get two hours off a month, but if we don't use it, we lose it. So on the last day of the month, if I have any off and it's at all possible, I go home early. :D

[vivien]

Yup. Although you can accrue time, but only about 10 days worth. Once you get there, the days disappear and you start over again with the years' worth.

Sure I do get vacation in summer (4 weeks) plus 3 weeks for X-mas and spring break. This helps no one if you need surgery or get really sick. So I am not thinking about that option ;)

I did mention that I loved you, right?

Squee!!! I had Billy and Dom dreams last night (all very G rated, but lovely). Sigh...

[vivien]

Middle Earth RPG - an old D&D starter unit, apparently. I'm very excited.

Re: RPG?

[vivien]

Role Playing Game - D&D. I never got to play when I was young. I keep myself young at heart instead.

I'm guessing vacation and sick leave are separate, and this is personal time.

Sadly it is not. It's all we get for any reason. Which mostly sucks. I hope I find a better job one day soon.

I am so excited about starting an RPG that I can barely stand it. That's so cool! Good luck.
