Hugs for everyone :mrgreen:

Haha, my boss is one of the very few people close to me that I do hug, but she's like an aunt to me. But I'm off to a party tonight, so I shall just get hug-happy in my Santa suit.

And hugs for y'all too.

My boss (now 2nd boss as the regular manager has returned after sick leave) is one of those really close bosses that, IMO, probably is a bit too close to the workforce for her manager's liking but we all benefit so what the hey.

EDIT: Response to Mikey's comment.

Ah, okay, Reliant.

And typing on a laptop is... rather odd, actually.

My apologies for the delay but: My condolences on your loss Striker. I'm sorry.

Very nice. I've been thinking about starting a blog again myself.

Thanks, Sonic. And that was beautiful. :)

I'm back home, got the rest of the week off. Don't go back to work until the 28th. Got some catching up to do, too.

Well, back to work. If I wasn't feeling so miserable, the shifts would've been... pretty decent, actually.

After 8 months back on dry land and on holiday in Aussie.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I have started back at my old job after 5 years. Going okay so far. And this time now that I'm older and more settled, planning on making a career out of it :)

I typed the phrase Brigadier General into a Google toolbar today for work on a paper, and the 5th suggestion Google had was Brigadier General Lethbridge-Stewart.
