Julie has her Leave of Absence secured
Bryce has gotten his manager to agree to a ~6 month LOA and agree to ask for more if I request it.
We've got our travel gadgetry:
Super cool lap-top with good wireless and a built in web cam
get Skype, we used it tonight to talk/ video-chat with Denise in Saudi and it's super cool! It'll be the most common tool we'll use to reach you.
Unlocked Quad band phone that will take sim cards from anywhere else in the world(except Japan because the don't use GSM, sim card, technology). This will facilitate some phone conversations though we'll probably try to focus on using skype.
Tickets look like they're even cheaper now than they've been. That and our short-term savings looks like it could sustain us for a while even if the job market doesn't pan out.
I'm freaking amped...
