No worries...things on the dating front are fine. Just sometimes i need to remind myself to stick to my guns about all things in life. :-) Oh...and my mom always tells me I'm too picky...when i start believing her...i have to remind myself that being picky isn't bad. On Thursday the boss of the whole lab division is coming to the lab to discuss the proposed salary adjustments. There are lots of rumors going around about how much, when, and who are getting these adjustments, and now he's coming to put an end to the rumors. So this could potentially be a very good discussion, or a very bad discussion. Best case scenario, it's the 30% they promised us and we're getting it before the end of the year. Worst case scenario, we aren't getting any raise at all. So be crossing your fingers for me!
