Me and D were supposed to be doing our valentines thang today ( a day late) on account of his car had broken down and wouldn't get fixed til friday, both of us had meetings to go to, and I was likely to be a bit wiped out from first very full day after being ill for a week.

So then he phones me yesterday evening: his car's fixed, do I want to hook up for a bite to eat at his flat after our meetings had finished.

So...we did, and it was really nice, but I hadn't got him anything valentiney (planned for today) and he had got me card, flowers and gift. Very sweet. Made me feel a little guilty though, which is mildly irritating me ;P

My guess is that the unscheduled time you spent with him was far more meaningful to him than any card or gift you could think of.

Getting all my documentation together to give to the Accountant for taxes and the anticipation of what I still owe.

My employer changed health insurance companies effective January 1 of this year. (This in and of itself might be seen as at least "mildly" irritating, but anyway.)

Today I logged in to the insurance company's web site for the first time. I was required to select three security questions--two off a standard list, and one that I completely made up.

One of the ones I chose was the name of my first school. My initial answer was rejected due to the use of a non-alphanumeric character, namely a period in the abbreviation "St." Well, that shouldn't be much of a problem... how many schools can there be named after St. Somebody Or Other?

My made-up question involved a particular characteristic of one of my pet cockatiels. Or should I say, cockatiels. It was rejected on grounds that the question contained profanity.

You know Bri, Chicago is a perfect 1/2 way point to meet for the two of us...and has 2 conveniently located major airports for anyone else who'd like to join in any festivities we might conjure up.

I'm just sayin'...
