So we had the big announcement via video at work today. Someone likened it to a cross between LeBron James's decision special on ESPN and the Reaping in the Hunger Games. The last month has been a crazy political whirlwind but I'll spare you the dirty details.
The really fantastic news is that no one is losing their job this year! I'm still amazed that our agency head found a way to not lay anyone off (at least, for this year). We will have some furlough days and I probably won't be promoted for a few years but I can deal with all that. I get to keep my job. My colleagues all keep their jobs too. :-) I can not tell you how relieved I am. And Matt is too. I think he's been feeling guilty about being in school full-time and not bringing in much income.

Oh yes, please! If Matt hadn't had a final last night and a final tonight, we'd be breaking into a bottle. Tomorrow night, we will!
