Bring Out the Dancing Girls -- I Got a Promotion!!!

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!!)

Yay promotion, yay ego boost! This makes me believe in the existence of a God of Career Opportunities again :)

Congrats! Also, promotion! Karaoke far superior to anything else imho. :)

I will try to make sure that my God of Career Opps speaks to yours very soon. :)

Thanks a lot :)

Also, I don't have the qualification for 'dancing girl', but I could do Flora MacDonald's Fancy for you in order to celebrate:)
