Firstly, we hit a certain sales goal at work for this quarter, which is pretty typical overall, but what makes this one matter so much to me is that it is the first full quarter where I've been in my management position, so on top of the amazing paycheck I make ever other week, I am now looking at an additional $830 on top of it.
And the best part is, it's come literally three days before my 37th birthday!
My birthday is on September 8th, but since I actually work that day, I will be celebrating it come payday with a trip out of town for a day of shopping, relaxing and hopefully a big bowl of ramen somewhere!
I am currently without my PC thanks to the local mail carrier screwing the delivery up of my new desk. I had taken my old desk apart in advance, disconnected my PC and all that jazz because I expected to come home and put together my new one, but alas come the end of the day, the desk never showed up. And the real crap on top was the holiday this week delayed the delivery further.
I am glad that I finished the season 2 finale of Last Tail when I did, but I am itching so badly to jump back in and start the next season.
The desk is scheduled for delivery tomorrow, so we'll see.
In other news, later this month, I will be taking my first scheduled vacation from work since I began the working there last spring, and I am excited. It'll occur during my annual Autumn Welcoming celebration that I hold ever year by making a big pot of beef stew and a homemade pumpkin cheesecake.
I've got some new fishing gear as well that I really haven't had much an opportunity to get out to use given the strain work has been in these final weeks of summer, plus the constant string of heatwaves have driven the fish deeper. But in the coming days, I will definitely be getting back out there.
