brierebecca 0 #1 September 22, 2005 So I just bought a new canopy (thanks Brains!) that needs a reline. I'm a student, and finances are tight for me right now. I was wondering how in the world am I going to afford a 250 dollar vectran reline? And then I opened my office email, and I got a Performance Bonus in the amount of.....wait for it.....250 bucks! Weird coincidence, or fate? Oh yea, YAY I got a bonus! "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

freeflir29 0 #2 September 22, 2005 Well it's better than having a tooth break apart on you when you live in the middle of nowhere. Just consider it a nice happenstance and stop torturing me with your tales of good luck! That's cool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doctors either..........unless you count a Korean hospital. I lived in Korea for 14 1/2 months............that shit is SCARY!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brierebecca 0 #8 September 22, 2005 hey, I've been saving a special hug for you, and now you go and make fun of my spelling! (Which is usually pretty good, by the way. Weird is an exception to that I before E thing, and I didn't catch it because everything looks strange in all caps. It's like writing on the board.)

PLFXpert 0 #15 September 22, 2005 NICE! I hope that happens to me. I got an "invitation-only" invite to 25% off retail price for one of my favorite bag-desiginers. I just recently paid way-too-much-but-so-worth-it for one two months ago. I can't really jusitfy another. I wonder if my boy-toy knows about these "performance bonuses." I performed AMAZINGLY for him last nightPaint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
