Christmas came and went. It was lots of fun this year- the anticipation of Christmas with two kids is very entertaining!

I made my first A in grad school. And still two weeks of a break. I am thinking of trying to find a new book to read for the rest of the break.

Our company sold yesterday. They've eliminated all benefits for our part-time employees. No personal time, no vacation. They've removed a week of vacation for the tenured employees with 10+ years. They say we are now more in-line with other companies in the industry. Hmm. I am sure there are more changes to come.

Christmas is in two weeks. It has snuck up on me! My final is tomorrow. Once that is done, I'll be able to knock everything out!

We tried a new restaurant, Bocaccio Cafe, in the Brownstone Village in Arlington. It was pretty good. They don't have their Alcohol license yet, but luckily there was also a great wine tasting store located right next door. This is where we spent the remainder of our evening. (When we were supposed to be Christmas shopping.)

Also went to the Cowboy game last night. It was brutal. Not the weather- the team. But we had great seats on the third row. I can't say that I will go back to the nasty stadium again unless I have good seats again. Our chairs were pretty gross and the facility is so outdated.
