Sarah got a $7,700 raise today. It really will be quite beneficial. This year, she will now make almost precisely double what I made last year. Or, to put it another way, she will make, in 10 months (minus 4 weeks vacation, so actually 9 months), the same amount that I made in 24 50-hour-a-week months (with no vacation; not one day). She is definitely blessed, and, by association, so am I.
