I made whiskey-oatmeal bread/cake. It's okay but I should have soaked the steel-cut oats for longer. Kinda chewy.
And I do not understand why Firefox 4 keeps logging me out of B.org. Very annoying.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Watched Upstairs, Downstairs tonight. Can't remember how accurate the sets are. That's quite a townhouse.

Why does the IRS hate me?
Because you've devoted your life to teaching and that was such a selfish, shitty thing to do.

Someone got the sulks when told I was leaving tomorrow. I think I did good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You have that effect a lot, don't you, sara?

That's odd, Consuela--I have Firefox4 on this computer (mac) and haven't had any troubles.

Because you are happily married.
RIGHT! Dammit.
We owe enough to buy a car, and not a shitty one. Sigh.
I believe in paying taxes, I really, really do. I just wish we'd had the money to set aside all this year to compensate for most of ND's income being 1099. It's a lot easier to be responsible with money when your taxes all come out up front. It's such a deadly cycle; we're going to have to be on a payment plan to pay 2010, so we won't have enough to put aside for 2011, and so on and so on.

Apparently, the 3-4 set likes me. Though Dominic could actually fathom that I need to go back home, he did say he wished I could stay longer.

Heh. That too.
