Yesterday!

I got a raise! Yay me! And it was a substantial one to match my title I guess. But...even if I look at my title, my pay is below average. Comparing my level of education and years of experience, I am not getting paid what the average is. However, I am making more than average than those in my age group.

But then these averages are based on people who chose to do a survey.

But it looks like my raise won't be included with this paycheque; hopefully there will be retropay the next payday.

This raise could not come at a better time! And then my parents take me seriously when I say because I am getting paid more, I can spend more!

Well, the old house is all empty. I was going to take photos of it, but I didn't. It is kind of sad. I will miss my old room. :(

Tonight I'm going to the movies with the P Man. I feel like I have been neglecting my friends lately. It sure makes a difference that P and I don't email all day long anymore :( I hope to get together with P this weekend, other than Saturday night! I am also starting to feel left out!

I've seen a lot of the P Man lately. I am not going to think about what it all means ;)

And my dad's getting scary again; I'm so glad that I don't see him when he goes on such rampages, but I feel bad for my mom. She is afraid he is going to do something drastic. He called me today asking about something that happened years ago and that had nothing to do with me.

Back then, he and this woman went on a cruise, and someone called the woman's daughter, telling her that the mom and my dad were having an affair. My mom speculates it was my aunt who called the girl. My dad phoned me at work today asking me about that incident. I have no idea why he chooses to drag me into his drama and lies. And if you're going to waste my time, don't call me at work. Geez.

I got a raise recently too. It's about dadgum time, I mean I've been here almost 2 years.
That sucks about your dad. My dad irritates me but I guess I should count my blessings.
BTW, what movie did you see?
