... and the end-of-year bonus just arrived. $5k, before taxes. $2.8k, after. t reminds self she is a lifelong progressive and the taxes go to things like schools and highways and protecting endangered species and feeding the poor

What should I do with my windfall?

(Amusing side note: the company won't give bonuses to anyone who's been here less than a year, so my VP wrote a personal check to my employee, whom I have to explain this all to when I give her the envelope...)

The trouble with Dion, Morrissette, McLachlan is that none of them is really that kind that you look at them and say, "Oh, [country]."

So Shania Twain isn't going to work either?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ah, but what are the chances of someone skimming that and then going somewhere else?

I do it cause I get frequent flyer miles at B&N, but not Amazon.

But I am a freak about frequent flyer miles.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What should I do with my windfall?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dana has one of those mattresses, Consuela, and I'm pretty sure she likes it. I've heard great things about them.

Do you already have a large flatscreen monitor? That's what my first bonus went on.
