Confirmed

Got confirmed for the cruise. Amazing what happens if you tell them you are leaving the country. My room is inside, right by the elevators and right under the gym (8 floors) so thats a bonus. Prices went up...used to be $312 ish now they have added a fuel supplement and now total cost including taxes, fees, fuel, and gratuities is $499.49 for 15 nights. $33 a day isn't bad, but not as great as $20 a day no matter if you have an accounting degree or not. Speaking of, I'm going to be hauling a 27 lb (exaggerated) review book for the CPA in my backpack. If I don't vomit when I open it or accidently throw it in a bonfire, I might read it.

The joys of planning last minute. I booked a ticket with an airline that doesn't do electronic tickets and my paper ticket was scheduled to arrive in Anchorage tomorrow but I leave tonight, a slight obstacle. But paying extra, they stopped the shipment and rerouted it overnight to Miami so I can get it when I get to James and Liz's place tomorrow. Hopefully. Its the ticket for the 28th so I have a couple of weeks to figure it out if it doesn't show up tomorrow. Other than that, taxes done, PFD app. turned in, bills paid, oil changed, sheets washed, camera charged, memory card empty, ipod loaded, wine rack hung, documents printed, food eaten, carpets vaccuumed, laundry laundered, gym membership cancelled, bags packed.
