It brings a tear to a young professional's eye

It brings a tear to a young professional's eye

Today after I got home from work (which I have until next Wednesday [hooray!]) I found several awesome things in my mailbox.

  • 1) All three of my Netflix movies (Nightwatch, Midnight Cowboy & Head: The Monkees for those keeping score at home).

  • 2) My upgraded health insurance plan (finally). Lower co-pays and better coverage? Why, I'll take it!

  • 3) Not one, but two pay checks. The best part is that they're both pretty substantial ($137.34 for each of two days' work, after taxes) and they came in the same envelope. It was like I won some sort of lotto scratch off and doubled my pay.

    Guess I'll go make a deposit, have some food and pop in a movie. And get surgery. With a low co-pay. I don't care what they remove, 'cause it's cheap!

    [Incidentally, if you're looking for a great read, look no further than Daniel Clowes' (of Ghost World fame) Eightball comics. They're smart, oneiric and affecting. The two specific issues I refer to at the moment are issues one and 23.]
