Still on the air

Okay, so I was told on November 4 that I was being laid off. But here it is, December 30, and I am still on the air, with no end date determined. In the mean time, I have to finish my doctoral requirements by September 23, 2009, so this whole job debacle is actually a good thing. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and I am looking forward to a fresh start. Yeah for 2009!

We had a magical Christmas, full of Temko/Yang/Mickler/Barnes togetherness. There was gut-busting Chinese hot pot at my parents' on Thursday; an incredible meal at Bacchanalia on Friday night; dim-sum at Happy Valley Seafood Restaurant on Saturday; and Ben's awesomely yummy beef short ribs on Sunday. Yes, our lives revolve around food. Aren't yours?
