Just wondering if it's safe for me to come up for air yet....

:hangover:

Many of you know I got a new job at the beginning of February for a software company where I'm writing the documentation, the online Help and the release notes, and will have more responsibilities as needed.

I've been working 12-14 hour days since then, including weekends most of the time (I've taken maybe 6-7 days completely off in 3 months).

So today, I FINALLY turned in the final .pdfs and hard copy to send to the printer!! :woohoo: The Help is due next Wednesday...then I have a couple months of lull.

This first time was the worst because I had to completely re-vamp both documents. It should only get easier from now on. 8-hour days will be such a relief!

:D

Although I've been around a little bit lately, (usually mornings before work), I have missed my DU buddies!

5. Well crap!

I was going to link to MY kudzu copycat thread, but someone must have gotten it deleted.

:-(

[Random_Australian]

10. My kudzu copycat was supposed to be the best & last.

Answer it would you? I didn't leave you hanging! ;)

11. No worries!

Mine was about Urdu. A sequential link from the "I'm bullish on Kurdu" thread. Who was the selfish bastard who got it taken down. :cry:

:hi:

3. I wondered where you disappeared to

I always liked your screen name. :hi:

[fudge stripe cookays]

6. It appears that...

you also like coffay!

Are you an Odd Todd fan, or do you just like my chocolatey goodness?

:-)

[fudge stripe cookays]

Hopefully, all will be lollipops and rainbows for the next few months.

[fudge stripe cookays]

14. Thanks!

Let's hope THEY think so!

:D

9. Good to see you back....

Sounds like you have been working too damn long hours. I'd be :bonkers:

Hell, I am :bonkers: enough from having moved a week ago.

[fudge stripe cookays]

15. Thanks sweetie!

Move not too stressful, I hope!

:-)

13. Hey you!

See you in Fort Worth? :hi:

[fudge stripe cookays]

16. Sadly, no.

:-(

Our niece will be getting married during part of that time, so we'll be in the Great White North.

But I also get to meet a whole slew of new cousins, so I'll be that much closer to finishing my family history book, so I'm pretty excited!

[GOPisEvil]

17. Oh, well that is exciting!

It'll be a damn sight cooler there than in TX too. :D

I'll miss ya though.

[fudge stripe cookays]

18. Likewise!

I was just remembering how much fun I had with everyone in Houston 2 years ago!

How's the new job coming? Do I remember you saying you did get one?

[GOPisEvil]

19. The job's been going ok.

Unlike yours, they kick me out after 7.75 hours per day. :D
