I am so pleased with myself that I have things ready to submit my dependent care reimburseable tomorrow to empty out my account.

Still need to figure out medical and get in insurance claims.

Less cool is that none of the childcare expenses since August are getting covered. I wonder if it will be enough to deduct on taxes?

Law's Watson was not quite Watson at all

I need to read a book or two to be sure (it's been a while), but I hated the Watson that went along with Rathbone's Holmes, and much preferred this return to Doyle's army vet Watson. Someone that could be relied upon, instead of being the buffoon that needed everything explained to.

And the scene you cite was disgusting.

Where are the developers? They're supposed to be doing a demo in five.

Why are none of the expenses getting covered since August? Is that already over the limit stage?

So my insurance changes Friday but I just got a referral to see a sports med doc about my neck. Do I make an appointment anyway? My medical group isn't going to change.

Doyle's army vet Watson.

One of my issues was around this. This Watson was way too spry for having suffered an injury in the war!

I do think it was brilliant to have the movie be set up at point where Watson is moving out though the stories certainly continued after that.

I also was thinking about the doctor disguise that Holmes used which was appropriate as he was a disguise FREAK but also doubtful that he would have chosen a non white man to disguise himself as or that the hospital would have non white docs.

Casper can sing most of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" and did so repeatedly over our vacation travels. I've been fascinated at the wide variety of people who've either never heard of it or have heard of Beyonce but don't know the song. I expected my 70 year old inlaws to not know it, but my MIL had heard of it as 'that song that the guy you were telling me about at the music awards [i.e. Kanye] was talking about.' But my 24 year old brother and his 22 year old wife didn't know it, and the mid-30s couple I was at the park with today didn't even seem to know who Beyonce is. But it's so freaking ubiquitous!

Yes, I underestimated costs and the summer programs at $2000+ ate up what I had set aside.

That seems weird. Although I can see not knowing the song, if only because you've never noticed it. I understand people who don't pay attention to ambient music, although I am not one...

I have it maxed on my FSA for next year at $5000 (which is still almost $4000 less than what I pay for childcare right now). For next year with preschool, it will be even more so I will have to take some as a tax deduction instead.

A Pew Research Quiz: [link] The final screen is great because it shows your results relative to others who took it via telephone. What I think might be worth studying is whether or not those who take it online have a grossly different percentage of answers right. I don't really follow the news, but I'm aware of it because of being online. Anyhow, go and take it and see!

Good one! I only got one wrong, and I knew I didn't know it (troops in Afghanistan).

I really want to go to Crate and Barrel, except it's all the way outside! Stupid winter.
