Port Move - Day 1

Well...so far it's the disaster that I expected.

I got in this AM at 6:30 and there was the smell of disaster in the air. Nothing was right in my cube other than the orientation. I'm missing my extra nextwork connections, the height wasn't right, and overall it's been a complete fuck-up. They misplaced the box of cables for the plotters for 5 1/2 hours, and we were concerned that they wouldn't show up. We finally found them and I spent 2 hours hooking everything back up. Needless to say, it still feels like a cardboard hobo town.

So much is left to do, so it will be another waste of a week while we unpack and get some semblance of order to the chaos.

Going on a Cruise!!!

Well,

It's official, Brenda and I are going to spend Valentine's Day on Celebrity Solstice for a 7 night Eastern Caribbean Cruise.

We're both very excited, and we got a great Ocean view cabin on Deck 8 - on the opposite end of the ship where we stayed during our shakedown cruise. I let the PM for the project know and he's pulled a few strings, so as I understand from the Guest Relations Manager, we're going to be treated "famously".

As soon as we return, I'll post some pictures so you can see the BEAUTIFUL vessel.

On a side note, our move back to the port offices is underway, and as usual, is a disaster in the making. It will be all over next week, so I'll be ready for a serious vacation.
