effective monday...

...I will *officially* be the assistant general manager at my job. It's an open secret, everyone already knows, and I've been doing the job already... but it is made official on Monday. A substantial pay raise is also in the works. The timing could NOT be more perfect. With all the dental bills and such I'm paying for over the next few months, it won't feel like I've gotten a raise, but I'll at least be able to sustain.

My arm has been hurting a lot since I got the staples out, and now I'm having a lot of pain in my thumb and wrist joints that wasn't there before. I'm certain that's because my bandages have been a lot looser so they're having to support themselves more than before. Still, I haven't laid off the new pain killers yet because it's terribly uncomfortable without them. Two to three more months of being a one-armed wonder. Hoping for at least a short vacation in June, but we'll have to see how I'm feeling.
