whee!!!!!
okay. so. today was not-so-good. it wasn't so bad, but it wasn't so good, either. i had this weird thing with ralph, cause he'd been so mean to me yesterday and i was in a bad mood this morning cause of my brother so he came over to harass me and vicky and i was just like, no, go away. and then he gave my mom a hard time and she called me and was like, um, ralph said you need to apologize to him for earlier, otherwise he won't help me with the thing i need from him, so please? and it was weird but then i went over and i was like, "i'm sorry that you were such a jerk to me yesterday that i was less than 100% nice to you this morning. now be the bigger man and don't take it out on someone completely unrelated, will ya?" and he laughed and we did this weird fist hitting thing and decided to be nice to each other. then we had an awkward (but "nice") conversation and it was weird but it was okay.
then later on my boss' boss called me into her office and was like, close the door, and i was like, uh-oh, what'd i do? but it turned out she just wanted to tell me what my raise and BONUS numbers would be!!!!!! let me put it this way: my bonus was three times as big as my mom had told me to hope for. granted, i'd forgotten that it gets taxes, so that means that really i'll only end up seeing about twice as much as i'd hoped for, but still: that's TWICE AS MUCH as i'd hoped for!!!!!!!!! which means i actually have like, expendable cash now!!!!!!!!!!!!! especially when i go to FL. this makes me TEH HAPPY. and kinda proud, too. yay, me, for actually apparently doing a good job at my job. :)
i had called linds and left her a message earlier in the day when i found out that john roberts had been confirmed as chief justice (shows how much i pay attention lately -- i didn't even realize we'd gotten that far in the process). so she called me back and we talked for a little bit, but then her cat who's having problems adjusting to the move acted up so we hung up for a while. in the meantime sam called me and i talked to him and it was happy, and then when i hung up with him linds called me back! and i talked to her until about fifteen minutes ago. seriously -- we were on the phone almost a good four hours, all told. man, i totally miss the days of four hour conversations with my linds. we need to do this more often (though hopefully with less to talk about, cause i LOVE those random interjections, LOL).
now i'm getting ready for bed, having pretty much missed a good portion of tonight's wonderfalls eps (which pretty much tells you when i started this entry, since look at my music! LOL). yay, bed.
so.....yeah. that's really all i've got right now.
mwah and hugs!
