Hey all!

Sorry I've not been around in a while and here I am on my first day
back and I bother you all with some miscellaneous stuff. But I just
have to brag...I got a promotion! And a hefty raise! Yippee! Yahoo!
Wow, life is good sometimes. Even when both you and your cat have
bladder infections.

Nanner, nanner, I got a raise....

Congrats! I like my position, though.
I get a three month vacation every year, 6-8 hour days, and my parents
support me!

Sounds like the hospitality suite we've been kicking around should be
generously supported by the Les Johnson Foundation. <beg>

Probably not. She needs all that extra money to support her
expensive addictions. Buying me presents and flying to Canada
and other stuff like that. :-)

Can I safely assume that you are a student?

Yes indeed! But the Les Johnson Foundation also supports 2 cats. One
of whom seems to be needing some expensive medical attention. <sigh>
It's days like this when one wishes one's addictions lived a lot
closer.

Probably your contract expires when you reach 18. Course, you could
always bid for several option years after that. Maybe even finagle a
car and some school out of it.... I guess those would be included in
your benefits package though.
