In other news - the finance exam sucked and I know already I mucked up at least one question. I'm just hoping I did okay, though I really don't know. I think I did really poorly on it, to be honest.

In RP news, I have a scene set up with Basuma, which is cool, cause I like Basuma. And a scene set up for this coming Tuesday on RS. *grins* Maybe even 2 scenes on Tuesday. *gasp*

It's READING WEEK! Yay!!!!

So it's getting round to Tax time right?

This year I'll end up with two T4 forms, because we got outsourced March 9, last year. Our current employer already gave us our T4 form. Of course, the previous employer can't read, and sent me a form for some guy named Lionel, with the same last name as mine, who lives in New Brunswick...

*sighs*

Some days, you just can't win.

And since it's lunch time, and I'm in here ... Saturday's puzzle for you all.

Start with the number of Dalmations in the movie, subtract the number of years in a decade, then subtract the number that is the square of three and add the number of legs on a tripod.

What number do you get?

So, you all addicted to these puzzles yet? (It's a joke people, Chill!)
