Thanks:
1-- I would like to thank the world at large for not playing any April Fools's Day jokes. Since we are well out of junior high school, I believe the time for such things is long past. I never liked that kind of crap anyway.
2-- Thanks to Cadbury for inventing the Creme Egg and Hershey for continuing to make it after buying Cadbury.
Peeves:
1-- Many streets in the valley (the San Fernando Valley or The Valley, for out-of-towners) are nicely laid out on a grid, so if you remember roughly in which order they fall, you can get around fairly easily. In theory. In reality, almost none of the streets, except the major arteries, are continuous so god forbid you should try to use logic to find your way around. Oh, and you are in serious trouble if a road happens to be blocked. (This peeve brought to you by Michelle who had the unfortunate idea to try to get from CSUN to her new house in Van Nuys West [that's what it said on the listing, so I am sticking with it] using medium-sized surface streets.)
2-- The GRE study class I am taking just makes me feel dumber each week. I never should have dropped out of grad school. It is too hard to get back in.
3-- Now that we are in escrow on the new house, we have to sell the old house. We have lots of small and some medium tasks to complete before we can list it. The good news is that our condo will sell for at least $70k over what we bought it for less than two years ago.
