We're finally going on vacation! Off to the Big Island we go.

Truthfully, I could use the time to unwind. January and February were busy at work (leaving no time for snowboarding... and from what I hear it was an awesome season). So now we've moved on to our next activity - backpacking. I'm looking forward to laughing with friends, soaking up sun, and enjoying the beautiful views HI has to offer.

I've had a situation at work where the receptionist of the other company on my floor has become increasingly hostile to me. I have never talked to her before last week, and although they're just words, it's made going to the bathroom or taking the elevator increasingly uncomfortable. I found out from my coworker that other people in the office have been subject to her rudeness. It's somehow comforting to know I wasn't the only one targeted, but really her behavior has to stop. It got to a point I had to speak to my manager about it last week. He's contacted HR and we're going to see if a manager here can go and talk to her supervisor.

Hopefully this gets taken care of while I'm on vacation. As of today at 5pm, I plan on not thinking about anything work-related for the next few days. :)
