The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yay! I would have voted for Tikka too.

So, my Week of Amazement next week seems to be actually happening. Will update with many !!!!!!!s as events happen.

Again, Yay!

Thanks Maria...that just led me right to Tom Jones.

Okay, I am dumb about money and I have a question. I just got a notice from my bank that the fund that my RRSP are invested are being closed to Registered investments with a couple of exceptions.

the [blank] Fund will be closed to new purchases in registered plans. The fund will continue to accept all new purchases from non-registered investment accounts. This change will not affect investors' current holdings in the fund. Unitholders in registered plans with pre-authorized investment plans established on or before December 9, 2005 may continue to make these regular contributions.

So does my automatic monthly withdrawal count as a "pre-authorized investment plans," or do I have to hie to the bank and find another fund?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

You're welcome, Sue. I can't be miserable all by myself now, can I?

Yay for Jesse's jet-setting week! I'm a goof and forgot to say it earlier.

Perkins, I think you should come out here and have tikka with me. IJS.

Edit: Sue, I would hie to the bank just to double check. Do you know if your plan is registered or unregistered?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, please -- I don't think I've ever said YAY WEDDING to your face, so.

It's definitely registered.

I think I have found what I am doing with my Monday off...

Sue and Vortex, I have you both beat. "Raindrops keep fallin' on my head...." Someone needs to remove the part of my brain that recalls Englebert Humperdinck songs, forever.

Don't Worry, Be Happy -- bring it.

I can't even.

Tikka it is!

From that excellent little place we ate at the end of the F2F? If so, great choice!

I ran into an old buddy in the bank today, so we hied ourselves off for some excellent sushi just up the street. Serendipity, and stuff.

Well, phooey on you. I could take it back if you like. (completely and totally joking, btw)

You got to know when to fold 'em....

Yep. Everytime I walk in the door I think of you, KristinT, and ND.

NO TAKE BACKS!! PS: YAY WEDDING.

I have yet to do anything useful today, other than watch TV. Which only counts as "useful" in msbelle's world. I need to wash the Halloween costume sweater and at least pretend to study. I don't wanna! At least the laundry part can be combined with getting something to eat for lunch, which I really need to do now.
