An early May Day present

For once there is good news in the apartment drama saga: After telling us we would get no additional furniture allowance the university is giving us $800 each.

Many of my colleagues submitted reasons why we should get extra money like, "I bought a small refrigerator for the small apartment. Now I have to buy a second refrigerator."

I said, "Let's call it what it is. We deserved to get some payment for being placed in a small, crappy apartment." Either way, after telling us December that we'd get money they told us a month ago we wouldn't. It's safe to say today's news was a surprise.

A nice, pleasant surprise.
