....the Red Cross goes and screws me over.  I had the two weeks scheduled off work, I stayed up yesterday almost 24 hours to take a stinking class from the Red Cross about disaster services, I was going through the whole process....... then they went and changed my deployment date and moved the minimum requirement to 3 weeks instead of 2.  This is a problem because I cannot get any other time off work, because my company is an evil empire.  They have a strict policy about vacation time now because of a recent re-org, so I won't be able to take any time off from now until November, which negates any chance I may have had of actually helping out.  Boy, was I pissed yesterday.  I must apologize to Rock and Squidget, as well as my dear old mum, because when I found out about this around 5pm I was very very pissed, and I vented to them.  Loudly.

Anyway, this pretty much ruined my week.  Anybody want to get drunk now?
