holy crap 2004 is rockin major ass so far!  its only 7 days into the year and i'm in amazement. ok on to the stuff i can mention: 

• i am working in investment advisory the next 3 months.  the dept i've wanted for a long time. :)  bye bye retirements!  someone had a kid unexpectedly so i get to step in.  caused a lot of drama today though.  i start tomorrow.  :)
• i got a raise!  7.41%  which was over two times the standard.  hello!  lisa must rock :P
• i got a new watch!  my other one was unexpectedly broken so i got to get a whole new one.
• i have a pretty fair shot at a new job.  it pays more and has better benefits.  it would be more difficult, i'd be trading, and its a different firm, but it might be worth it.  we'll see how it pans out.  i have more bargaining power now.  :)
• studying for my 7 is going really well.  it pays to know it all ahead of time! 
• i'm heading up some committee and focus group since i'm known as a "fighter".  whatever that means.  anyway, its good performance review material!
• *secret* ;)  this one will be addressed later.

thats like a bullet point for each day of the year.  i hope my streak doesnt end!  :D
