You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Stepanie, I'm around, but my math is rusty. However, I have paper and pencil and calculator handy....

Trust my rage

Well, this seems like it should be easy, but I can't figure it out:

I took out a car loan for 33,195 (interest rate 4.94%) for 60 months with the first payment made in April, 2005. I'm trying to figure out how much I owe now.

(The easy thing would be to call the finance company but we have moved so many times that we don't get statements anymore and I can't seem to get logged onto their system...again because we've moved, I think)

eta: You'd think I could find this on the internet but none of the calculators seem to answer my question

Well mac has been attacked by a snot monster, he slept poorly last night and so I decided no Karate today. fat chance of me getting him to take a nap though. He was up at 6:30 and I only just got up, so he's already had almost 4 hours of tv/video games.

after breakfast I think we'll head to the vet for cat food and then swing by the pharmacy for some de-snotting kid medicine. Then maybe fast food for lunch and if the medicine is having any affect maybe see if anyone is at the playground since it is supposed to get up to 45 or something.

I am useless when it comes to figuring interest on loans, I'm sorry to say. Teachable, probably... but as of right now, useless. Sorry!

Off to work. Blergh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Theo, I also posted this in Movies, but Boston Common and Fenway are both showing it in 3-D. So is Danvers, if you want the 'burbs instead. I'm probably going to see it next Friday at a matinee, since I'm pretty sure I'll be taking that day off.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Weekend plans?

Matilda's at circus school. Her Uncle Lukas is in town.

Tomorrow, Emmett has his first baseball practice with his tournament / all-star team. (No rain please.)

In the afternoon I'll be meeting with my coaches for this season and going over our draft strategy. Draft is on Tuesday.

Sunday evening...Suzi & K-Bug!

Monday...well, my temp assignment ended and I don't have anything else lined up. Even though there was a lot of work left on that project, the head office decided to cut back on their temp expenses. Sucks and it's going to be a lean month.

information libertarian

We have been to Great Cuts (haircuts for mr. flea and Casper), the YMCA (the office that has summer camp info is not open Saturdays) and Target (a replacement toy for Casper for the toy that mr. flea accidentally broke, plus m&ms and spinach seeds).

Now grilled cheese and after lunch mr. flea is going to go buy boards and dirt so we can build my raised garden beds! I have 4 crocuses in bloom and many daffodils in bud and within a few weeks I can plant peas and spinach.
