So - got some bad news.... We're not going to the UK for Christmas. Due to a mixup in Brad's office about leave-time, we had to cancel the whole thing. I was really bummed when I found out, but it'll be okay. It's not like we'll never have the chance to go again. It was hard going back and cancelling all the reservations and stuff, but it's finally done. Since we cancelled with plenty of notice, we're not losing a lot of money, which is great. I just wish I could get back all the hours I spent planning the damned trip in the first place! At least we can plan a nice Christmas back in Allen - especially since Mary Beth just moved back. Should be nice.

On an upside, I've finally caved and gotten on Facebook. A friend of mine joined and invited me on, so I signed up just so I could chat with her. But, once my info was out there, I've been found by my old students in Lexington. The last 48 hours have been interesting as they discover me on there and I find them. All my A-team Academic Team girls are in contact now (they're in college now) as well as a few other students - I expect I'll find more soon. I even found a student I taught 5 years ago back in College Station! How fun!
