I got my paycheck today!
For the work I did in January, mind you. But better late than never, I suppose. And the next paycheck should be more on time because the board treasurer will presumably know how to figure out tax withholding now.

The walls are now approximately 50% spackle, due to the fact that whoever built the addition on this house used the world's cheapest wallboard.
