Pay raise!

I got a pay raise today -- about $2 more per hour. Even though I am a "salary" employee I get paid an hourly rate. I will not post this hourly rate because -- alas -- I would have made MORE money if I had just stayed in the Air Force. Plus, no debt for student loans! Sigh ... but I would have been miserble, in a soul-killing job, and probably divorced because deployments are not good for blissful matrimony.

On another note, I have just finished the 1st season of "Weeds" which is a show on Showtime. I got it from the library. Hey -- it's free. I started watching it as part of my education for the Drug Court. Much more entertaining than reading the Code of Criminal Procedure. It's about a suburban widow who becomes a pot dealer to make money. It's very funny though. Sometimes explores the dark underbelly of the suburbs too closely -- especially California. But I already had a low opinion of California (just the southern half). I give it a thumbs up.
