All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I have 12 W2s and 1099s. I should go through my pay stubs to see if that's all of them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am also missing tax forms (I think they have until Feb 15 to mail it this year). But I want to file! I've said it before, I'll say it again: Turbo Tax is like being paid to take a test. It is one of the highlights of my year.

Our wings are not tired.

Susan, I ended up with 2 Buffista cookbooks. If you want one drop me a note.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

ha. one of the bonus about the internet - Not watching the superbowl, but want to know when to turn on the half time show - keep a page up following the game progress on your computer

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I did the H&RBlock one, but same diff. Especially when you're me and have no assets, no children, one employer, etc. Easy peasy!

Go Pats! I've actually been kind of watching the game.

I don't want to miss the new House after.

Also, if the Giants lose, I need to know how many days I should wait before calling my parents.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Annabel is watching Noggin, since DH and I have no strong feelings about the Pats and the Giants--for us, since I lost my interest in figure skating after the judging system changed and my favorites all retired, the time between BCS championship and pitchers and catchers reporting is a sort of athletic limbo.

Earlier I was watching CSPAN with Annabel beside me. They were showing the Obama rally in LA with Oprah, Michelle Obama, etc. She was commenting on it, and I was trying to explain what it was all about. I said it was time to choose a new president, and that it was very important, and that we were going to the caucus on Saturday before Eli's birthday party to vote. She brightened up and said, "I love to vote! I can bring Clifford, Kitty, and Buffalo!" (her latest favorite stuffed animals) "They're quiet." (That last because she know she's not allowed to bring noisy toys when we go places.)

It was cute as can be, but I'm not sure she really knows what "vote" means. I'm half expecting her to be disappointed on Saturday when our caucus site isn't a boat.
