Waiting For The Calendar To Drop

We walked to work yesterday in sub-zero temperatures, occasionally slipping and sliding on the ice and snow.  Luckily today won’t be a repeat performance.  It is indeed cold this morning, but no sign of snow or ice today.  Good news!

At work, most of my coworkers are waiting impatiently for the next fiscal year calendar to be officially published.   The next fiscal year starts in April, and it details all the factory work days until March 2014.   We have to wait for the calendar to be official before we can reserve some holidays  – and I’m dying to pull the trigger on some plane tickets that we found.  It would be good to get a good price on tickets, but at the same time I’d hate to commit too early and then not be able to use them because I can’t get some time off.

I’m 90% sure that it would be no problem, but even at only 10% the risk is a little too much for me.  Besides, these discounted tickets usually have restrictions on rescheduling, so if I miss I miss big.  But February is coming, and I think it is just a matter of weeks.
