A to do list, possibly of minimal interest to you-all, of administrative foo:

TODAY:
-Call KL and confirm receipt of cancellation form
-Email D and let them know they'll have to mail checks
-Nudge thespian and futabachan and A about Boston trip! *Nudgenudge*
-EMAIL Boston trip folk with my constraints so we can work out when we're leaving and getting back

-Mess with Telus plan
-Try to activate Treo 600 on Telus, and sell leftover phone
-Sort out SB snafu
-Pay off Direct Loan when check has cleared (sort of)
-Trade in Driver's License (August 6th or later)
-Sell leftover skates!

When all this is done, I'll have one 12K USD loan left, and be done moving over to Canada. If, by some miracle, the people to whom I indefinitely lent money in the US were able to pay me back tomorrow (it could happen!), that would go down to only 10K. Paying off at the rate they currently require would take about 7 years, if it weren't for accruing interest.

So, here's a reasonable goal: Be debt free in about half that time. It sounds possible to me...

Teeth!

I have teeth. The God, Goddess, and any other powers that be have blessed me with abnormally good teeth and excellent dental care.

That is why I have only ever had one cavity filled in my entire life.

That is why, after 3 years of no check ups or cleanings, brushing my teeth once a day in the morning, and no flossing, I have only two small cavities, and so little gingivitis and plaque that the assistant was surprised to learn that I didn't floss or use a waterpik or SOMETHING.

Thank you, Mama DNA! I promise to take better care this year!

Big mouth

Me and my big mouth. My big fucking mouth.

I should keep my big mouth shut. Then, I won't stick my foot in it.

I am mortified. I am anxious. I am sorry.
*beats self up*
No, I don't want to talk about what I did. But I do want pettings and reassurance if anyone feels like playing the minimal-content-comment game.
