Nice!

My contractually obligated pay raise (mandated after 18 months on this contract) kicked in last week, and I had totally forgotten! It's only a couple hundred more a month -- probably not even enough to really notice after taxes, 401K, etc... but you know what? I will TAKE IT. And, as I am all about noticing/appreciating the good things that come along right now, I will RELISH IT. (After all, that paycheck is not going to be coming at all for a while, pretty gosh darn soon...!)
