I sat down last night and did the math. I'm currently paying more for daycare than I am for my FRIGGIN MORTGAGE. Though at least this tells me that, after Madison turns 4 and starts into school, I can start paying double on my mortgage.

Sheesh.

That's the exact reason why we're trying to find me a evening/night position so we can flip-flop childcare. Up to $300 a week to week to watch a baby around here. Seriously, it' isn't that hard. :eyebrow:

Some guy cut me off on the way to class this morning. I made a hard brake and my 52 oz lemonade capsized, all hands lost. :ick:

Back to Iraq I go. 5 months done, 7 to go. And a stack of paperwork awaits my return.

Went to Prague, had a blast, apparently passed inspection by my girlfriend's best friend. Watched Firefly when I got back. Apart from charred popcorn, life is good =)

I just made the ultimate sneaky cake - since I made it from scratch, there is no boxy evidence! muah ha ha!

also it smelled like a big sugar cookie and is kind of dry like one. Although tasty. I blame all shortcomings on the altitude.

I met Tynan today.
Ok, actually, I got off the subway when he got on like a couple cars down. I flipped him off, but he didn't see.
So Tavis
A big hearty middle finger to you.

I also had my first facepalm in a long while today. This guy was chatting up a girl outside while I was having a smoke just now. He was all OH YEAH I WENT TO ITALY AND PORTUGAL AND PICKED UP SOME OF THE LANGUAGE.
And she was all
"Portuguese is so weird. It's like... a different language"

Finally went back to the theater to finish off The Hangover. I was almost crying with laughter when the credits rolled.
Also, considering the Jonas Brothers were almost single-handedly responsible for why we didn't finish the movie last time, when they were mentioned in the movie, our little corner burst out into riotous laughter.

Have today off, figure I might as well wander over to High Park at two and see what's up - apparently people from deviantart are doing some sort of world tour and are stopping in Toronto for a bit.
Pack some markers, grab some food, hang out with random internet people I've never met or even talked to before... hey, why not.
