Wahahahaha!
I just got my bank statement. For many, *many* months now, every single
month the amount paid out has been larger than the amount paid in. This
makes me sad. :-(
However, last month, the amount paid out was *smaller* than the amount
paid in. This makes me happy. :-)
And today, I just read last month's statement. The amount paid out was
not merely "smaller", I believe it's probably a new record for me. Last
month I spent £112 in total. (!) And most of that was petrol...
This has caused my bank balance to increase by a very large percentage.
Right before Christmas, this makes me *very* happy. :-D
Of course, I spent vastly more than £112 yesterday alone... :-(
[I had 2 new driveshafts fitted to my car. I gave my mum several hundred
pounds in rent. I bought food and petrol. And then there's Zazzle...]

Seriously, IMO your blog is a better place for your public diary than
p.off-topic.

Yep, and if he put the link to it in his sig then I would certainly visit it
more often. (I thought he did but it's not there now...)

*sigh*
Maybe there *is* something fundamentally wrong with me? It seems like
every time I say anything in any forum I get flamed...

It was not a flame. It was just a suggestion.
Unless you are a *really* interesting person (no offence intended,
honestly), continuously writing about your personal life in a forum
is not very interesting to people. That's exactly what online diaries
and blogs are for.

I actually meant that what you posted sounds like an elite guide to
*becoming* a troll (rather than that you *are* a troll). ;-)

Today I woke up, performed my usual morning routine, then had oatmeal
for breakfast, I then entered my car and proceeded to drive to work ...

I remember the first time we got our finances squared away to where we
had extra money left over - it is a great feeling to finally be at that
point, and even better if you can stay there.
See, things can get better! :-)

Tell me more. Did you have anything with the oatmeal, do you normally have
oatmeal for breakfast, how was your drive; tell me, tell me, tell me ;-)

for uninteresting people feel like they are someone on the web and thus share
their thoughts and pictures of cats with anyone who cares. :)

LOL!
Ken's got a job, but as long as he gets good grades, we pay the tuition.
And I'm now considering going back for a masters degree at the University
of Utah. They apparently have a masters program for technology
professionals that doesn't have an undergraduate requirement.

Was waiting for you to notice. ;-)
Oh, and in some parts people post pictures and videos of *having*
babies... (Typically accompanied by long wordy descriptions about how
"wonderful" it all is.)
Hmm.

Things you don't want to hear when the doctor is performing major
surgery on your wife:
Hmm, that's interesting.
