I work at a newspaper during a recession.

I'm on a week long furlough - basically unpaid vacation so the company can get it's cash flow in order. This would be fine, except they told me on Friday that my furlough would start this Monday. That shot any potential visit to Michigan in the foot.

Anyway, if you want to come to sunny El Paso, I'm twiddling my thumbs through Friday. (And it actually snowed a bit today! Woo hoo!)
