<p>I'm prepping to try to negotiate a bit. Going to call Phil back in about a half hour.</p>
<p> </p>

<p>OH! This is FUN. I unloaded a kiln full of glazed mugs this morning. Every darn one came out perfectly, and I am ridiculously pleased. Have done several happy dances this morning.</p>

<p><strong>kath</strong> - good luck on the negotiation. And congrats on the successful mugging <span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"></span></p>

<p><span>My fun was that I actually slept last night. Admittedly it was on the couch, sitting up, with about 20 pillows supporting my back, propping my arm, etc. But I go a good 7 hours and feel great. Arm is still a little buzzy, but not as sore as yesterday.</span></p>

<p><strong>Litch</strong>, have you been to a doctor about your arm? I'm glad you got rest last night, and I hope the arm improves.</p>
<p>((((<strong>BigG</strong>))))</p>
<p>Good luck, <strong>Kath</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm hosting the string ensemble tonight, but that's about the only fun on the horizon. I get to pick up the forms detailing the process for my third year review today and figure out how long I have to get my sh!t together. That will be a nice dose of anxiety today. I also have an undergraduate research design to pick apart and about 5 chapters of a dissertation to read. Oh, and I get to read 2 sets of comprehensive exams. Now I'm just depressing myself.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For all the <strong>Gleeks</strong> out there: Are you recognizing the songs in the last couple of episodes? I swear, I have no idea what they're singing anymore. I guess I have no knowledge of current music.</p>

<p><strong>Fun</strong>: I don't normally put my phone on vibrate at night because that button is sticky and all night my phone would buzz. So, at 3:30 a.m. I get a text from my coworker that his wife had gone into labor! I woke up of course and read it and then promptly texted him back. 
That probably surprised him a bit. Still no baby!</p>

<p><strong>Not fun</strong>: I went outside to go to work this morning and there was snow on the driveway. So, even though I was running late, I had to sweep off the snow and salt the driveway and walk because I have people coming over tonight.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>More fun</strong>: When I went to the post office (to buy stamps to send mail to Canada), there was no line. Yesterday, when I bought domestic love stamps, the line was out the door and it took forever.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Litch</strong>, let us know what the doctor says.</p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>THEIA KICKS ASS!!!</strong></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just sayin'.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>She gave me some negotiating words to use on Phil, and it worked!!! Probably got another 10k out of them. Which is still lower than what I would have liked, but brings it into the ballpark. And I still get the monthly bonuses.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He is going to scrape up some money this afternoon, and we are going to talk again tomorrow.</p>

<p>Ok I obviously need to talk to <strong>Theia</strong> before accepting any future job offers. Awesome job <strong>Kath</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Apologies for not being around. Some days my job is non-stop. This week it's been pretty quiet. Lots of the sales peeps are on vacation which means less work for my crew.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Brandy</strong> - One of the guys I work with had a baby at 3 a.m. today!</p>
