    I don't get the joke, but what the hell, I would too.

    In other news, my friend is a tow truck driver and this is what he found inside of a truck he picked up today.
    Roadkill squirrel, a Bible and a case of beer.

  3. It's 3:45am PST. I'm up with a little girl who is a night owl.

    I'm trying to get her to sleep while DaddySquirrel is sleeping. He goes back to work in a few hours and i don't want him to be totally dead tired. I'll at least get to sleep when she sleeps.

    I understand the joke.

    Unfortunately I'm also living it.

    Filed my tax return on 1/31. Refund hit today. I try to plan my withholdings so that I'm not getting a massive refund, but still, a nice way to start a Monday morning. :cool:

    We got our refund last Thursday--we filed early with TurboTax, and the IRS accepted our return a couple days before 1/31, even though they said they wouldn't accept returns until 1/31. Now I'm just waiting on the state return.

    My nephew just got accepted into college.

    Holy fuck I'm getting old.

    Just like how people think the '90s were ten years ago, I still think I'm "recently out of college/university"....

    It's when you give the government a loan, because they obviously are responsible with the money they get, then they pay you back without interest. But if you loan them too much, or don't pay them enough, they penalize you. Oh, and the rules change every single year, sometimes in the middle of the game.

    Or last year, where they didn't finalize the rules until the game year was over.

    I've found a few tricks that help. First, I refuse to accept the fact that my oldest niece has finished grad school and is now working. I also reject the reality that her younger sister is in her 3rd year of college.

    Second, I find that it helps to spend as little time as possible in front of mirrors.

    :D

    My sisters had their kids very young, as did my nieces, and several of my great nieces are old enough to have children. Suppose my wife at age 49 had our child?

    I can just hear it. "Are those your babies?" "One is, the other one is my great great cousin."

    Saw a guy on the bus wearing a Roots Hockey Night in Canada sweatshirt. It made me smile.

    Finally bought Skyrim. Went for the Standard edition without the dlc because I want to try Fallout: New Vegas in a few weeks, and I'll need *some* sleep.

    Nerd alert. Finally decided to name my phone. I stuck with my theme, and my phone is named Galadriel.
