We are back in NYC. Drove back yesterday, we could of stayed in CT until today but figured coming back Saturday would give us more time to unpack and set up our Christmas tree. Tomorrow it’s back to work for me. Going to be rough getting up early again after a week of sleeping in but I will survive.
The girl and I are in CT visiting my family for thanksgiving. I have this whole week off for vacation so we decided to come up to CT this past Saturday and will likely be staying till the Saturday after Thanksgiving. No major plans this trip. More a relaxing vacation than a “doing stuff” vacation. We did go up to Northampton and the Yankee Candle superstore as well as a few other random small day trips. My sister and her BF are supposed to come up from Long Island tomorrow and stay though Thanksgiving day. Mmmm….turkey and pie!
Monday it will be back to work time. Finally got signed off to do fire cases, actually did my first one last week before I left. I will have a good deal of stuff to do once I get back so I plan to enjoy my time off to the fullest.

First off…go vote tomorrow. Preferably for Obama but just voting in principle is important.
Second I did my mock trial for Fire Debris this past wednesday and pending some paperwork being signed am officially done with fire training. Woo hoo! Soon enough I will get to start doing fire debris cases on a regular basis, with a sprinkling of Chemical Unknown cases still as they come in / are needed.
Ideally I will be done with training for a while. In theory I will eventually learn explosives analysis also but probably not for at least 6 months or so (or so I hope).
Speaking of work have tomorrow off in theory but am volunteering to go in, and by volunteering I mean I get time and a half plus a day back for later. Plan to stop on vote on my way in, which is easy since our polling place is all of about 200 feet down at the end of our street.
On a sad non work related note for what ever reason they tore up the little weed infested area of dirt and plants behind the building and cemented the whole thing. Granted it was a bit of a tangled mass of weeds and a few rose plants but *I* think at least it was something nicer to look at then a huge square of cement.
