Er, um...

Fuck
I made a small mistake on my finances. I still owe the lawyer money. While I'm not so broke as I was before this puts a damper on surfing next week with Opie and, thanks to the machinations of other lawyers, I will not be getting my inheritance from my Uncle Floran until the end of September.

As my mother so elequently put it in her e-mail to me explaining why the inheritance would be delayed: "All lawyers are shysters."


What happens when tree-hugging nazis run the world

So, as suspected, the Wonder Wagon failed Air Care. I noticed that the schmoe that was doing the test was running the car right at the top edge of the green zone and I failed just by a hair. If he had run the car in the middle of the green zone I would have passed. Oh, well. I only wanted three months insurance anyway. Now I have to decide if I put money into the wagon or look for new car.


Has this happened to you?

Ever been really pissed off because of something you dreamt?

Suddenly nothing happened

All of a sudden I am feeling very, very sleepy. I was going to bug Trish and Michelle to let me tag along with them tonight, but now that I am home I think I may just go to sleep on the couch.

Cat for Trish

...but at what cost?

Actually this is brilliant. Now if they can pull off a retrovirus to upgrade my existing cats...

And in other news...

What an exciting life I lead. I spent my day in my cubicle writing code for a bank's intranet, then I came home and spent my evening writing code for a credit union's intranet. It is possible to interpret some of what I do as being important... the stuff I've made so far, at the moment, directly impacts or will have an impact on about three million people. How weird is that?
