Dear Big Banana, I congratulate you on your highly overdue verbal and monetary recognition. Bureaucrats are, on average, highly underrated people. They are thought of as boring stuffed shirts. Not you, dear Hairdog! I think I speak for all of us when I say Wtg, man! Great job and I'm sure you are indeed a kickazz attorney, when you do actually work.
You know, I have a sister in law who is VERY uncomfortable doling out WOA to her H. It's weird..she's really proud of him and talks well of him to other people (on occasion) but to give him woa when he's clearly deserved it is almost impossible for her. Nay, it IS impossible for her. Something about "he's expecting it, so I just can't do it". It's weird. But she has told me that she thinks it--just can't bring herself to say it.
I don't know if that's any consolation--that your wife was definitely thinking highly of you yesterday. Oh and my SIL gets pissy when she knows she should be praising but isn't. I wonder if that was at the root of W's general pissiness.
Oh well, WHO CARES! I'm proud of you, I'm hoisting my tea glass in the air to you and saying Salut, Hairy..!
