Well then I guess they'd better come across with some more money. ;)

Highest bidder, baby... I'm sure your professional services will be in high demand wherever you go, and there's bound to be a company that sees the value in keeping you around for a very long time, rather than trying to both underpay you AND work you to death!

I want a job that doesn't give me a "case of the Mondays".

But then again, I do like where I work...

It's just days like this where I feel... bleh.

Well, no wonder!  I mean, you're leaving after tomorrow on the vacation of a lifetime!!!  I don't know how you could possibly even get anything DONE all week with that kind of anticipation running through you...  ::)  :D 

I'd be on pins and needles!!!

Everyone has to die of something.... I'd prefer to die from a wealth overdose.  ;D

I just don't want you to die of anything... less pleasant!  I mean... dead is dead, and when someone is gone they're not gonna care how fancy the coffin is that all that money paid for!  :P



I dunno, call me selfish... but I'd rather have you around for longer, even if it means you have a few less toys.  ;)

Dead is dead... just like taxes, everyone has to pay the piper eventually.  Roll me into a ditch and throw on a couple of shovels full of dirt to keep the stink down.

Fraser's gunna choke at this, so don't drink anything when you read it brother :D

Yesterday, I took myself off the active roster for SOC. Basically, that means I am not available for OCONUS deployments for at least 90 days. I settle into the thought of being a professional college student for a couple of semesters and not having to go overseas till next spring (side-note: between being a PMC operator in a third-world warzone and being a full-time daddy, I promise you, getting shot at is easier! Stay-at-home moms have my utmost respect). No sooner do I announce it and settle in, then TC calls me up offering me a PSD medic position paying $15,500/mo. I had to turn it down until the spring.

GAH! I swear, its like my life is a sitcom for some deity of irony.

Good... keep writing.  It's safer in the long run and will net you more money in case of joint problems... from picking up over weight Scots. :D



*yes, i'm working on that... give me a month or two* ;)
