why i am now an adult part I.

1. I'm old
2. While cashing/depositing my check today at my local bank, I actually asked for a brochure on money market/cd rates...weird.
3. I bought gas today, before the weekend, before I was running on fumes.
4. I actually checked out a book from the library about 401 k plans....creepy.
5. I actually attended a class on personal finances, read the materials, and gasp, asked a question about mutual funds!
6. I don't complain about work, i just go.

The Best Lines From Easter Hymns

I'm way too tired to write all my thoughts and ponderings of this great Easter Sunday. Yes, dear readers I did finish my taxes, and brother Ben received his glorius birthday present (not till next week) from me(A collection of soccer photos from all over the world, it's grand). I also got destroyed in a family game of croquet on the sidelawn. I don't know what happened. I was way, way out ahead of everyone, when it all collapsed, and I finished dead last...oh well.......feel free to snicker........
on with the title.....

i really like these lines from "Christ the Lord Is Risen Today"

"Where, O death, is now thy sting" and
"Where thy victory, O grave?"

awesome.
happy Easter.

Being Relevant to yourself

...I'm not so sure I am. I think I've been stuck in the same rut, or an off-shoot of it for years. With all the "self improving" i've been doing, it's still so easy to try and figure it all out too soon, and explain it all away until the progress seems like an oblivion away. I feel like even with this lame blog, i'm always trying to explain to you (the ghosts of cyberspace I call you) that there's more to me than these pathetic snippets of snippets that i write. It's as if i have a million paintings hidden in my room, and every once in awhile i'll put up a picture of a random corner of one instead of just putting it all on the gallery. And wondering if any of the "paintings" are worth seeing are a constant thought.

Man, i went and got a professional massage this afternoon. It was grand grand grand. My wrists still hurt like a monkey though. Workers Comp? maybe not.

I almost completed my taxes all by myself, but alas, I had to ask mother yet again a few questions. It's getting easier each year, not quite the greek I usually see.

It's starting to rain, april showers indeed. Just let Lucy in and she's already laying on the floor looking depressed. Petting doesn't help. Only walking cures her moods. Walking and finding socks lying around in the basement!

viva la saturday.

happy Easter tommorow in a totally non-eggs, and bunny way.

Health Insurance

Everyone seems to be talking about healthcare these days. But what nobody is talking about is.....Health insurance for robots...

Not now.

...just as it's best to hold you're tounge when you're really angry, so methinks for blogging......
