pardon me, i must be screaming....

I HAVE A PERMANENT JOB!!!

Yup, I got the news when I went in today...had that meet with my mgr, and he was, like, "O,BTW..." HR will make it official next week. The upside: I will know where my income is coming in from, and I'll have benefits like paid days off and insurance. The downside: A $1 an hour paycut. (WTF?! All I can say is, for $160 a month, those benefits better be out-fucking-standing.) 

I put the cherry on that triumph by placing a $1500 order for some old gal (I'm being ironic; she's less than a decade older than I am---she told me so.) who bought TWO LeSnobbi bags. ($695 apiece, plus tax and shipping---that's more than my last three cars cost---put together.) I got her life story and a lot of philosophy---I'm pretty sure she was snockered---in between my southern-fried Jeeves routine, "Yes, ma'am, that's a wonderful bag. A lovely choice, ma'am. And which credit card will you be using today, ma'am?"

Damn, I'm happy!

Yes! And thank God, I can now uncross my fingers. It's been hell trying to type like this. :)

Seriously, I am so happy for you, hon. Way to go!

*hugs you* Thanks so much for being there---it's been a rocky road. (Hey, good idea---virtual ice cream for everyone! My treat!)
