Friday goodness

Friday morning was so hard to get out of bed. I've had a couple of late nights, and it's just been a long week overall. It took me an hour to drag out of bed. When I got to work I said today better be worth coming to work for.

Well it was. I got a bonus and a raise. Of course due to the economy this year they were both small. Still I've been told it is above the average in my group. Yay! I'm going to put $100 into the Elsa Peretti Bean necklace as a reward.
