At work a part-time person was laid off in my department yesterday. Today a full-time person was laid off. Tomorrow will be another one. Two out of the three people knew it was coming because the customer they were dedicated to decide to insource their service desk. My boss made the comment about how he's not replacing a Level III associate in order to save money. I made the comment that it's great. When ~E~ and I are gone, he won't have to replace us to save some money. I think he was a little dumbfounded and shocked. I don't know why. He has known for over a year that she and I are looking.

We've found the hotel we want to stay while we're in New York. It should be booked in the next day or so.

I did get some writing done on Monday night but haven't had a chance to get to it since then.
