Tha's right, Penguin Lovers and Haters and Playas. Now I'm Senior Associate Editor, and they be givin' me MO MONEY.

Seriously, I've been feeling a bit down about my career, being marooned for years in the same position and unsure I was actually doing a good job. And so getting this promotion really helps the ol' self-esteem and also reinforces the idea that, yes, I did make an OK career move when I left research for publishing.

I'd drink myself stupid on champagne tonight, but I think I've had enough barfing for one week. :p

(and I can't but think that my killer David Lee Roth act had a large part in this development. Van Halen FTW!!)

I'm sure you thoroughly deserve it, you smart mofo, you.

I hope you'll be extravagant in some other way today, if you can't drink. Just postpone the drinking though, okay?
