and it can only get better
After the somewhat horrendous and trying days of last week, this week has started off pretty well. Funny how we separate time like that; just because my Monday was remarkably better than last Monday, I figure the next 6 days will be equally good in comparison. Last week I managed to get 2 junior and 1 senior VP pretty ticked off by pointing out to them how they aren't doing their job. With that, there are now a couple of departments 'round here that cower and hide at the sound of my approaching footsteps. I've determined I'm not too much of a threat though, as throughout the week, it just got worse, to the point of me having to come into work on Sunday just to try and catch up with my work after I spent the week cleaning up everyone else's. So this week HAS to be better than that. And it started out great when I checked my bank account and found $2,000 deposited in it for no known reason to me. Some investigating turned up that it was my pension refund that FINALLY came in from Japan, which I had all but written off due to the fact that I had sent all the originals in November, and it was supposed to be bounced back to me in 6-8 weeks. Either way, a blessing since now I have money to put down on a new car, though not enough to get the one I actually want:

ohh mamasita, i'm in love.
