Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Weekend: probably Tae Kwan Do for Casper, procure 16 cubic feet of dirt for garden bed, usual chore stuff, no other plans. We have no Valentine plans & I'm feeling lame. Maybe we can bake a cheesecake.

I don't have Monday off but mr. flea and the kids all do. Probably they will watch TV all day, the bums.

Coding and Sleeping

I have a frustrating problem at work. There is a problem involving a piece of software I've never used. I read the instructions on how it is supposed to work and cannot everything seems to work. I take a guess at what is wrong and try to fix the problem and I get a reply that it is still now working along with the output showing the problem. The only thing is that the output looks completely correct. The person who actually made and understood the software is no longer working here. Arrrgh.

hip deep in pie

At, lunch, I told one of my co-workers that our salaries are posted on the internet, and now she is deeply disturbed. It's all part of being a civil servant.

Punishingly Intricate

This weekend I'm cleaning my filthy house and going to a matinee of Frost/Nixon with my friend tomorrow. Tomorrow night having a romantic dinner with my folks and aunt (for my dad's b'day...uh oh! have to get him a present!). Sunday back home and more cleanering and organizing. I hope getting my tax stuff together to take to my tax guy next week.

NO monday off. No holidays until Memorial Day! It's bullshit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My mom is coming up to visit this weekend so I have to come up with something more original than "take the baby to the playground and watch him go down the slide" for tomorrow. Sunday is the Still Hip bag sale and lunch at my sister's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, do my taxes was on my to-do list!

You don't think this will be just as entertaining for Grandma as it is for Mom?
