• Even after being caught in traffic for an hour and a half.
• Even after my voicemail at work got more action than I've had lately.
• Even after missing my "I'll be nice and bring in coffee" Starbucks run. (I figured that since yesterday's drama all occured without my mandatory ice coffee, that it would be wise for me to grab some coffee not only for me, but for those that had to be subjected to overhearing my "heads are going to roll, and it won't be mine" comment yesterday during the meltdown. Due to said traffic and getting in at quarter to 10, my good deed would go undone *sigh*)
• Even after hearing that the maintenance guy at my apartment complex left my front door unlocked while he proceeded to try to get a date with some girl in a van. (Little did he know that Roomie was watching the whole time and checked the door since he pulled this move AFTER he watched her leave the apartment.)
• Even after hearing that above said dingbat said he was going to "get a tool" (yeah - more like a phone number) and trying to cover his ass, I reminded the new apartment manager that, unlike my roommate, I'm not the nice one and they should remember that. If they think I'm bad, they really will hate the cat.
• Even after hearing that a gig for a client of mine was cancelled with no explanation.

Well, Karma was even nice to me after I got my Starbucks this afternoon. Not only did I go back on even keel after my iced venti nonfat caramel macchiato, and received a full blown apology from my apartment complex for dingbat's actions, Karma smiled on me with a big sunshine grin. Know why -

I Got A Raise. Yup, that's right. And not just what I got last year, but double that percentage. I about fell over in my chair. Drinks Friday night to celebrate. Plan accordingly people.
