I would have needed unpaid leave in order to go, and management vetoed it. Maybe I assumed too much when I went ahead and made plans w/o knowing for sure, but I had discussed it earlier this summer, then sent out a reminder email a week or so ago.
There were Reasons given. If none of them come to pass in the next few months, I am going to be ticked.
Bright side? I don't lose a paycheck. And Editor did sound extremely agreeable to a New York visit.
Meanwhile, I have vacation days and comp time that I will lose because I simply can't use them this year, due to special projects and lack of backup coverage. Proof, I suppose, that the universe is fundamentally unfair.
But a visit to NYC in March does sound like a good plan--weather permitting--and fireun and I can come down to the city and harass you.
