Things: Looking Up
Now that I opened my mouth (as it were) and complained publicly about all my woes, two nice things happen within a couple of hours:
1. I get a call from The Other Guy's insurance people saying that a check is on its way to pay the full amount of my car repairs.
2. I get two $50 Barnes & Noble gift cards in the mail, a gift from my company for my work-anniversary.
Lesson learned. I will totally start complaining all the time.
Comments
Please, don't. :)
Actually... do. You typically don't complain unless there's good reason.

I was going to say it works for me but, um, it hasn't lately. I'm delighted by all this goodness in your life however.

Does it work if I complain on your site too, or are comments exempt from this scheme?

And thus my Theory of All Thing In The Universe Added Up Together Equals A Big Fat Zero is proven once and for all. In other words, everything balances out in the end. And having said that, it's about time the pendulum swung back in you and Brad's favor.
I think for my work anniversary I got a raise so meager I didn't notice it for a month and a half.

Whoa, let's not get ahead of ourselves here. There are still three other things on that list that could go horribly wrong.
