“Pleased to meet you. Won’t you guess my name?”
everyday glory January 31st, 2006Monday : 30 January 2006
Neither “Manic” nor a “Rainy Day,” so I’ll give the day a passing grade.
The work portion of the day went without incident.
The non-work portion of the day was quiet and restful. For the most part.
I decided to buckle down and do my taxes. And I did. Thanks to TurboTax, I was done in something between fifteen and twenty minutes. Then came the aggravation. I decided to e-file my returns. That’s when TurboTax informed me that it would cost me $29.90 to e-file and an additional $24.95 for – get this – the “refund processing fee.”
After that, I headed out to get a bite to eat and to visit
And now, it’s snowing. Again.

Quote of the Day
Today’s gem comes from a conversation I had with: [16:38]
: Hola.
[16:39]: Is it a “bad” thing that I was sitting here, about to tell a friend about a possible Hallowe’en costume, and had the thought: “I did tell you that I work in Mormonopolis, didn’t I?”
[16:41]: No. Not at all. You are in the depths of Mormonopolis.
[16:41]: Oh, okay. Good.
[16:42]: You’re so far behind the Zion Curtain that it’s like you’re way back in the kitchen and you can’t even see the front room from there, let alone the curtain. And with that…
Namaste.
