Yup! I finally gave in to the blog. Now I can post comments on others and maybe people will comment back on mine. I was bad and went ahead and used my married name to sign up for this. But, the wedding is like 95 days away, why do something where I'll have to change it later. On that note, wedding plans are coming along fabulously! We are getting more and more excited and can not wait for the big day to come! Our honeymoon cruise was canceled due to the hurricane. We were supposed to catch a ship in New Orleans. Carnival has donated 3 of their ships to aid with the hurricane relief. But, we got another cruise lined up and for an excellent deal. Carnival was way too nice and gave us a $200 dollar credit, so we were able to upgrade to a longer cruise, on a larger, newer ship for no additional cost. The ship we're going on is amazing. It is 18 stories tall, almost as long as 4 football fields, they have 4 swimming pools (including a water slide that is over 200 feet), 22 bars and lounges, and so much more...plus 24 hour room service is all included! :) We had a little bit of trouble with our airplane tickets though. They seemed to think that they would be able to fly us to NO by December. They eventually came to the realization that while they might physically be able to land us in NO, the city will be in no condition to accept tourists. FINALLY, they offered to change our plane tickets. I feel guilty that we are ending up with a nicer honeymoon while there are so many people suffering.

Anyway, enough about that. I should probably actually get some work done today since I was gone for 2 hours this morning to go to the doctor. Yes, I have ANOTHER sinus infection! BAH HUMBUG! The doctor says to me this morning "You're like clockwork..every April and September you have a sinus infection." SO, he has scheduled me for one of those nasty skin allergy test things this Friday. I am NOT looking forward to that, but maybe they will eventually figure out what is causing all these infections.

Ok, I really am going to get off of here and get back to work. We were supposed to have a workshop next week in Wilmington. But, the governor has restricted all state employee travel due to the gas situation, so we are having to figure out when to reschedule it and then I have the fun task of contacting all 150 of the participants and telling them no need to travel next week. Hopefully most of them will be able to transfer to the new dates and we won't have to refund them all of their money. I guess we'll see!

Have a fabulous day! :)
