ANGER!!!!

You know, it was turning out to be such a calm and wonderful night...

Then Little Dude woke up with a really bad cough.  That wasn't so bad.  It was the '99 Monte Carlo dying that really pissed me off.  Thankfully it lasted long enough for the run to Walgreens and the stop home, and even more thankfully the Truck still runs well.  So I'm back at work scouring the Internets for cheap alternators (ha!) and instructions on how to replace it myself (ha! x2).  So far I'm looking at $150 for the parts alone...  I'm not sure I want to know what the labor would be like.

At least work's not sucking.  Joy oh joy.

*sigh*  And I'd just started making a small list of wonderful pens and brushes from Copic...

(no subject)

Ha! Still a little Southern, but at least I'm making the effort!

Eeeeeexcellent...

Today my manager asked me to walk with him to the parking lot.  For a moment I was concerned that it was because I was no longer employed, but thankfully it was to let me know in a small wink-wink-nudge-nudge way that I was the leading candidate for the position (quasi-promotion) I had applied.

While not a lock, it's certainly better than not being in the running.  After all, I've only officially been working for The Man for just under 3 years, at my current "leadership" role for about a year.  I'm not sure if there's a pay increase, but I know there's higher rate of yearly pay raises, which would be nice. 

In better news, tomorrow's PAY DAY!  The Wif's agreed to a small inking pen expenditure, which is cool, but I think I'll try out the whole brush thing first.

Kiddo was still a little ill when I left for work, but he's doing quite a bit better than he was last night thankfully.
