    I am.  I'm working until 3pm tomorrow, and then I'm off until the New Year.  I'm just trying to get through the rest of the hours, so I am bored.

    But apparently, my coworker has already started his break...he is blasting music in the next room...head phones, man, head phones, please.

    Is anyone travelling out of town?  I'm not; I'm lucky enough that my family and my hubby's family are all in town.  Glad I don't have to worry about travelling with the winter storm looming.

    I'm so ready. I'm on vacation from one job, but still have to work at my part time one. It will be marvelous to sleep in. We have our work Christmas party tomorrow too, so I'm not sure that tomorrow should count as a work day.

    @arsing89:  i'm in the same boat... off from teaching from tomorrow until the 6th of january; but, will be working a couple shifts at the bar to make some extra cash. waitressing is sooooo much less stressful than teaching, though, so it probably won't even seem like it's taking away from my break.

    but, to answer OPs question: I. CAN'T. WAIT.

    ME! I thought I was going to have to work Monday but found out I can just take it off if I wanted. Well, of course, YES I WANT TO!

    Tomorrow we're having an office party, so it's pretty much going to be a wash as far as getting work done is concerned. Probably will be leaving early too...so yay! for a 4 day weekend!!

    I am so ready for the break... Fortunately, it came a bit early in the form of a snow day (yay, being a teacher! Though, I am using it to get caught up on work I can't get done when the students are around).  Back to work tomorrow and then off until I have to report back on the 2nd.

    Ugh, I wish! Unfortunately, however, I work retail during the holiday season for some extra $, and from now to New Years is our busy time (hence hiring over the holidays). I'm working the next 5 days in a row (including Christmas Eve), and then I'm back in on the 28th, 29th, and 31st. I would have been working the 30th, as well, but DH and I are attending a wedding.

    Here's hoping these next few nights go quickly!

    So ready! My DH and I are leaving for Southern California tomorrow and I am looking forward to a 10 day vacation. I am beyond exhausted and looking forward to food, family and most of all no work.

    I am working next week which I'm kind of okay with because it will be quiet and I don't have to waste my leave.  Happy for the long weekend coming up though.

    I'm so excited that I hoarded my vacation time this year. My husband's company shuts down between Christmas and New Years, but I only get Christmas Eve and Day off. This year I asked for the entire week off back in like October and got it approved. He's been working 6 days a week for the last few months and I'm so excited that I actually get to see him for more than 2 hours a day, YAY! Two more days until an entire week off!

    I have a week and a half break starting tomorrow and am so excited! I'm drooling thinking of all the time and just hope I don't end up feeling like I wasted it :P I will get to spend all this time with FI and my father and sister are coming up from out of state to visit us! Big deal since we just moved 14 hrs away two months ago :D

    MEEEeeeEEEeee.. I work tomorrow and then I am off until the 2nd! Can't wait.  It honestly doesn't feel like it's so close.  I am in desperate need of this break.  We are getting pummeled at work.. oh and their awesome idea is to give those of us that are off next week "more" of the work load yesterday, today and tomorrow.. doesn't make much sense to me but whatevs..... just gotta make it through tomorrow :-)
