Taxes done and filed.
There are advantages to being a single person with no discernible property or things of value.
It takes about an hour and a half to do taxes start to finish and file them. That includes a call to the tax product people for a question regarding a specific deduction AND a call to the government to ensure they have my correct address on file (which went directly to a person, no wait time. I almost...

Seems reasonable.

Oscar party was a success!
And I won the pool between T-Money and I (though I’m sure I lost the one at work but whatever I have an Amazon gift card coming my way!)
Highlights:
- Billy Crystal opening (the usual but I don’t care) - Emma Stone presenting - Rose Byrne and Melissa McCarthy presenting - Christopher Plummer winning like the badass he is in that suit and his OoC pin - The bread thinger I made was...

Ottawa Senators have acquired Ben Bishop from the...
fuckyeahsens:
The Senators have given up a draft pick. The round of that pick has yet to be announced.
Ben Bishop has been 24-14-0 with the Peoria Rivermen, the Blues AHL affiliate, this year.
I thought we weren’t going to panic?

Livin’ the dream.
Bwahahaha! Exactly.
It doesn’t get more adult than this. Practical gifts early because they’re on sale.

The new boy in our office left me a surprise gift...
It’s a bag of crisps, Hula Hoops to be exact, I think because a few weeks ago I shared with him some English biscuits my friend Annelies had brought over for me. He’s Irish and I knew he would appreciate them. I did share with others but he was the most excited about “back home cookies”.
If I was a regular girl, this is where I would swoon I guess? Nothing against him,...

Also, you can never go wrong with a baby who shrugs on cue.
Never.

lil-tracy replied to your post: It was worth sitting through some serious crap to witness Glen Campbell
You totally went home because you didn’t want to watch the Grammys (Grammies?), then watched the Grammys didn’t you?
Not at all. Came back and watched The Walking Dead then Adele just happened to be on after that ended so I caught that and I knew that Sir Paul would happen at some point so I...

“Came with the frame” is the only thing I know from that movie.
We really need to fix that.

WHAT CHANNEL/NETWORK????
JoyTV here in Canada, Vancouver actually (thanks time shift cable!) so I’m not sure if you can either get that in the US or a channel where it would run this concurrently. Sorry for the tease. :(

PRIORITIES
Highlights (for me) include:
- Red rover, red rover, now let Ray go on over
- Walter, I have your dog
- Hey… Pinocchio! Where are you going?
- Ray falling/walking down the stairs
- Ray throwing his coffee at the paper boy during the opening credits
- The pizza dude’s comin’!
- ‘bout a nine on the tension scale there, Rube
- Everything Bruce Dern does
-...

Sometimes I just want to give her a hug and tell her to stop listening to her whacked out family.

So The River was pretty good from last night*
The pilot episode wasn’t fantastic but enough to keep me interested into the second hour which was much better. Not A+ material, but had some honest attempts at genuinely scary moments and laid the groundwork well (I thought) for the last 6 episodes.
Plus, there was more Bruce Greenwood than I had previously guessed. Always a good thing.
*Thanks PVR!

New Job
As I alluded to a few days ago, an opportunity presented itself at work and I took it. It wasn’t easy, a lot of back and forth and two directors who fought over me really passionately, which is humbling I have to say. My current boss tried to keep me and used all of her cards at her disposal but my future new boss and myself argued persuasively to let me go and take over this position...

pamplemoussi replied to your photo: I finally went to Facebook timeline. I know it…
You’ve convinced me I need to add it myself. And it’s crazy how my activity died off in 2008 or 2099! Whenever it was that I got a tumblr, I just stopped using FB.
I know exactly what you mean. I signed up for tumblr just a few months after fb and as I got more into that, my fb usage waned at a steady rate...

I love us.
T-Money: I made my [grocery] list. I think we should get that pie.
Me: We can have a loud and public argument about tomorrow right before you pick it up for purchase.
T-Money: BAHAHAHA. Deal. I can bring out the "first of all, don't tell me what to do..."

For some unknown - but amazing - reason, BBC...
That’s a reasonable time frame! Only a few weeks after UK viewing.
Even though I’ve already seen it and have it forever, I still PVR’d and will watch it again later.
I had quite the shitty day at work today and without boring you with details I will just say that re-watching Sherlock is really going to help. Plus the booze. And the carby, carb, carb dinner.
