I have Dan Savage's permission for yesterday...

Went to get today's dose of Savage Love, something I do every Wednesday, and found this: "Look, (acronym), no one needs anyone else's permission to be annoyed. We all have the inalienable right to be annoyed by anyone, for any reason, at any time." Tee hee. That was in response to a really annoying question about annoyance, too. Kind of meta-annoying. :)

Went to the bank this morning to make a small deposit, and found an extra $1400 in my checking account. After a brief period of bafflement I remembered my federal tax return was for that much. So, later today I guess I'll log on to my bank site and shuffle it over to savings. And one more bit of news: I went to TKD last night and while I didn't perform stellarly, the knee seemed pretty much okay. Another couple of days and I'll probably be able to stop thinking about it.

Anyone have advice on this?

Has anyone heard of getpaid4opinions.com? I'm seriously considering signing up. I love surveys and feedback type stuff anyway... and while the squawking on the front page is a little too get-rich-quick for me, they do seem to be on the level. I used to make a few dollars per week as a subject for psych experiments as a student, so this kind of thing doesn't seem especially weird to me. What do you guys think?

Stressssssssful.

I've got two new zits on my chin, just found out I have a business trip next Tues and Weds (my plane for Europe leaves next Friday... remember?), and that random data-corruption bug has come back to haunt my code. Sheesh, I'll never have time to fill out $30 of surveys, much less give rumgirl her pottery. And HLM isn't even home to talk to me.

Did I maybe do something bad lately and that's why this afternoon is happening?
