No raise again this year, which totally blows, but I guess that's what happens when your company hires too many people. My boss tells me we'll talk in January to see about developing a plan for the company to make more money so I can get a raise. It's fair and all, i suppose, but do you know what I'm not? A salesman. I don't sell anything, and I don't develop ways to make money.
That said, I do have a couple good ideas.
No raise = no defense, so Life picks up 12.
Life's ball. 4th and 2 on their own 32.

My car's spent another week in the shop. A second shop, fixing some of the work of the first shop. So, as it stands, I'm out thousands of dollars on a ten year old car and staring at having to take some sort of action that I have neither time nor energy for.
ReplyDeleteDeath started 2009, this is the year I'll always remember as the year my neck started to make crackling noises, my house continued its plummet into financial distress, my normal courseload continued to increase exponentially, I officially lost half my vacation, I had to pick up another handful of online courses just to keep up, and, partially out of the enormous stress of all of the above, I gained 20 pounds.
And then I ended the year by pumping every single dollar I have into my car.
That's 2009 - Life blows up my kick returner, I fumble it away and my return man lies motionless on the field for while the announce speaks in hushed tones.
