Here we are in lovely St Andrews by the Sea. Heathy and I departed from our parents' place in Toronto at 3:44 on Saturday morning, drove and drove and drove. One speeding ticket and a few wrong turns later, we arrived in St A just in time for dinner. No fighting, no major mishaps - sisterly road trips are good clean fun!
We haven't done anything terribly exciting here, which is just what I wanted. Nice, calm, seaside relaxation. I haven't even given work a second thought. I don't care if the newsroom has gone to pot (and with Matt around every day, that is a definite possibility) I don't care if the other half of the staff quit (since half of them have already left) I just don't care. Perhaps I'll care when I get back, but right now I'm living free and easy. Today we're doing the Quoddy Loop, and then apparently going out for pizza with our grandmother. Should be an adventure - both the Loop and the dinner ;)

me again - just so you know, this memo was distributed this morning:

effective september 2nd, robyn brady will be in charge of the newsroom operations in the interm until our new news director is established

Gah!! And just who will the new news director be? Have they hired someone? Or is this one of those bandaid solutions of theirs that turns into a permanent thing?

walter is still the 'news director' in the interm - they are still looking for someone as far as i know...walter's been in a snit all week :P

remember, rip the band-aid off quickly - it's 'less painful' that way ;)

Exactly. Although the bandaid rip was a little more painful than I thought - my sister read your comment before I did, came home and said 'Hey Roby - you're the new news director!' Kind of freaked me out, then I started thinking about me being ND, then came to the library and realized it's not true after all.
Stupid work.
