I am this close to going on vacation. At 4:35 a very important dude called me and asked for a crucial report which I had not yet written. There's no way this vid could wait a week for his cr, so I went home, got everything packed except my very sparkly dress and was getting ready to come back to work when Brian returned (he's been out of town). I asked him if he had a way to pack my vsd and he said no. Damn. I went to work and I just finished the cr and I have one teensy thing to do to get a slightly less cr out of the way as well. We are supposed to leave for the airport in five hours. So I decided to write in lj.
