Punishingly Intricate

It's sunny and not too terribly cold here! (Not to brag.) I was just talking about how depressed I got the first year we had real SF winter when I lived out there and not drought winter. It rained every freaking day. That was way worse then Mid-Atlantic winter where at least we have some bright, if cold, days mixed in.

I ated too much lunch I think. Or maybe it was the green tea chai. Delicious but too filling. blergh.

Coding and Sleeping

Ours haven't been done yet. It's a pool of a set percentage for a small number of people, so to give someone a bit extra you have to take away from somebody else. I expect the pool to be about 3% though.

The status is NOT quo.

BUT IT IS SO COLD AND RAINY. And I am so small and wimpy.
Allyson is me.

We do 1 - 3 in university land. 2 % is the norm and 3% is extra special. Mostly, you need to move to a new position to get an increase that is larger than that.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Something near 30% of my income comes bi-weekly but the rest of it varies wildly. I didn't get anything else for the first half of Jan but I should have 3-4 additional checks in the next couple of weeks. My budgeting is like my bowling approach. If I overanalyze it I get all screwed up.

ION, Tommy Tune is in the building today. I haven't seen him yet though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Do you tip a cleaning service?

I would, but I'm a little tip-happy and I've never actually had one.
