twenty-seven years and one million words

St. Catharines, 2011.10.07

It's well over 20ºC, where a week before it was 8ºC—this year's weather has been crazier than ever.

I took the day off to recuperate from the exhausting process of the audit we've just come through. The final two weeks of the past eight months have been particularly grueling, as I had to perform about a hundred follow up tasks in a few days, many of them non-trivial.

We'd decided to visit Grandma for the weekend, and I went downtown to pick up a car only to have to take a nap at 09:30 when I returned with the thing. I think it's going to be a slow weekend.

Satire is tragedy plus time. You give it enough time, the public, the reviewers will allow you to satirize it. Which is rather ridiculous, when you think about it.
