All I can say is...
$200,000
I write grants for work all the time. I have received many grants before (typically up to $30,000), but never as big as the one I just got! I wrote a grant for Bank of America's Neighborhood Excellence program. They only give two $200,000 grants for the entire county of Orange. Out of hundreds of grant applicants I got one of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is HUGE not only for work, but for my vitae. As a professor you need write grants all the time. The monies received from grants is what allows professors to conduct research.
B of A is also hosting a party at the Diamond Club at Angels Stadium for the two organizations that received the grant.
It is also pretty cool since I get a bonus on the grant! So Long Car Payment!!!!!

Great job!
Good job Kelly! Isn't it great to come into some money that helps at the right time?
I need to get into the business of car payment ending bonuses... but for that to make sense I guess first I would need a car payment... but for that to make sense I guess first I would need a car that was made post George HW Bush administration... forget it, too much trouble.
Oh and it's a little late to comment but I love that big J bought you flowers.
And the trip to Pete's looked super cool. It's always fun to see him in action.
