Crunch Time

I am 95% done with the budget for next year. Considering I found out on Monday that I had to project revenue numbers per month for my entire department as well as expenses, I don't think I did a half bad job. I just have to finish writing a narrative on why I projected the expenses and I'll be ready to hand it in. And since I have the biggest and most important department (think about it, is anything more important to a museum than its visitors?), I think I've done a pretty good job. But we'll see what the big bosses say about it.

I am about to kick the shit out of the marketing guy. Don't ever say anything negative about my potential visitors. It will not be pretty.

I have awesome things for the gift shop at the Dossin! I am super excited. Thanks to my awesome boyfriend , I'll be carrying Higdon lighthouse prints there. The order arrived yesterday and I have a personalized thank you note from "Randy." It's all very cool. I'm excited about taking over this gift shop because the inventory is related to maritime history and the exhibits. I have ideas to track it better and to display it. I can't wait until next week when I can put it all together. Woot! Now that the budget is done, it's time to have fun with the Dossin. It's just a shame that I am probably the only person on staff who actually gives a shit about that Museum. Ah well.

That's it for now. Probably won't blog until the Re-Opening festivities are completed. Later.
