Quick summary of the past few weeks:
The big project for the Major Client got done. Everybody happy. The Big Boss said thanks for all my efforts.
The company is having budget trouble. Guess we weren't as recession-proof as management thought. Big surprise there. So everyone gets a 5% pay cut. The owners took a 10% cut, which sounds pretty noble, except that the prez just hired his wife a few months ago, so he's still getting more money than he was a year ago. Plus he gets to benefit from Dubya's tax cuts a lot more than us grunts.
Took a vacation to Williamsburg. Cool place. Lots of neat stuff if you're into history. Plus some good roller coasters at Busch Gardens. Wasn't as relaxing as the last couple of trips to Disney World, though - never really got a chance to turn my brain off.
Okay, now for what's on my mind.
Buffy ends tonight. I am majorly bummed.
Buffy The Vampire Slayer is only the second show I have watched from beginning to end. This doesn't count ones that ended after just a couple of episodes. The first was The Muppet Show, which ended a quarter-century ago. I came late to MASH, and Murphy Brown and Mad About You just got stale and I dropped them before the end. But tonight I have to say goodbye to Buffy, Xander, Giles, Spike and the Hellmouth. and especially Willow. This is gonna be painful.
