sometimes, life is just darn good

I am gainfully employed. :)

I am... still working out screenreader issues, or rather the IT department at the office is, but that didn't stop me getting oriented and settled in today. It's the kind of office where they're totally cool with you having a plant or three on your desk, and you can listen to NPR or an international analog while you work if you wear a headset, and everyone is just plain cool, so far. I go back in tomorrow to fill out a bunch of paperwork - direct deposit, emergency contact, that sort of thing. I have a job. So far, so very, very good.

Quoth the Chanter, at least once: "Currahee!"

And as I learned during a phone conversation tonight, Lizzie actually... y'know... doesn't mind associating with me. As in will still treat me like she did before Colorado, for the most part. If anything, things are a little more open between us, as we've both seen each other's darker sides. *happy, happy, happy chanter*

And [livejournal.com profile] trascendenza liked the fic I wrote her for the [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti lightning round. Yaaaaay!

Sometimes, things are just really dang good. :)

*Sighs contentedly, goes to curl up with a Dortmunder novel*

Victory arms on all of that! Seems like a good place to be in for the middle of the week. :)

Congratulations!! That's so exciting and happy-making!

(I have no idea about Lizzie and Colorado, but I assume that's also quite happy-making. :) )
