While this week has been largely like being trapped in a small room with a Sodomizing RobotTM that has a broken off switch, there have been some positives.

Dinner last night. Ooh... cryptic lack of explanation why it is on the list! One would think this is a complaint about something one Twitter or something.

I am full of cash - well, sorta. I mean, comparitive to my normal state. But there is something that makes this flush state different. That is because as of today, I official owe no money to anything anywhere. No credit card debt. No school loans. No overdraft, credit line, collections account, nothing. At most, the only possible debts I have left might be money borrowed from people and then forgetton about. Which, lets be honest, I probably wasn't going to pay you back in the first place.

A raise. It's not a lot, but it's better than being able to poke someone I vaguely dislike in the eye with a sharp stick. And by 'poke', I mean thrust vigorously. And by 'vaguely dislike', I mean Doqz. And by 'sharp stick', I mean- uh, never mind.

Work for the first time recognizing that I get stuck working insane extra hours to meet deadlines, and sending me home at noon today. Which leaves me sitting in a pub on Bloor with free wi-fi and a full pint, waiting to meet up with a friend for drinks and then watch the Jays game later. Yes, for today only, I love me.

It feels awesome to be debt-free, doesn't it? There's so much crap you don't have to worry about.

Aww... this made me a little teary. So glad, baby, love you so much too. See you later tonight, say hello and have fun.

Nicely done. It's a great feeling, isn't it?

No debt? Congrats! And a jealous pox on your house. Once I pay off the school loans, I'll be in your shoes. Relatively, anyway.

Please do poke Doqz in the eye with whatever you were thinking about poking him in the eye with and vigorously so.

My friend texted me earlier about her watching the Angel game. Before I realized it was the Jays, she'd told me she'd finished off two bottles of wine herself- but the game was tied at that point. I'm not sure which team I wish to have won at this point.

Very well done! I do hope to be in your shoes someday, both with the work recognition and the debt-free-edness.
