It was not a great day.
I have no intention of boring you all and further frustrating myself with another Miss Vicki story. I will merely note that I get along far better with my ex-husband's new partner than I do with my closest peer at work.
Tonight, I will make oven fried chicken for tomorrow's potluck at work. I will cook Halloween cookies. I will do my dishes. I will do my homework for Hebrew Scriptures (identifying the contradictory voices in a single passage of Micah). I will drink some vodka mixed with caffeine-free Diet Coke. If I feel up to it once everything else is done, I will search my closet and try to find the pieces of my pirate costume to wear to work tomorrow. But that's not a high priority.
Tomorrow is bonus day. Our bonuses are based on Blue Chips: specific goals each person sets with her/his manager which are above and beyond our regular responsibilities. 60% of our bonuses are determined by how well we do on our Blue Chips. The other 40% is based on the company meeting specific goals. Exceeding goals can earn up to 150% payout on a Blue Chip. I completed all my Blue Chips, and I expect to have been rated at over 100% on the newsletter. The company is paying out at 150% on each of the corporate goals. So I expect a very nice bonus tomorrow. Once the money is confirmed in my account, I am going to go to Sears.com and order the breakfast nook set that I have been wanting (table, high-back benches that fit into the corner, and an additional bench) for my little kitchen. I am hoping that by the time mid-December rolls around my house will be ready for a party.
