Promotion

I found out today that I was officially selected for promotion. This means that as soon as a slot becomes available I'll be promoted and be able to pin on my Lieutenant bars. And we all know what that means! It means another wetting down party. I'm pretty sure I'm the number 2 guy on the lineal list of LTJG's, so my promotion should happen relatively quickly. Details on the party will be forthcoming when I actually do get promoted.

Congratulations!
Make sure you don't carry your cell phone for the wetting part of the party.
Love,
Mom

Wicked cool! I don't mean to brag, but I'm a pretty big wheel around my office, too. I have my own 3-hole punch.

Thew! Now's your chance! My duo has a free concert in Boulder tomorrow night! It is for the Shakespeare Festival, so it'll be right near the theater and dance building on the green. It only goes from 7-7:45, too, so don't show up too late or you'll miss the whole thing...

The crummy thing about working for oneself is that it is hard to get a promotion that means anything. For example, just now I promoted myself to "Chief Logistical Reedmaker" but I'm not seeing any immediate impact on my annual earnings...

I'll try promoting myself to "Executive Artistry Expert in Oboe-Related Fields" and see if that helps. What I am trying to say is, CONGRATS! YOU ROCK! But we'll miss you.
