I should really update, shouldn't I?

Well, I finally got my tax done with some help from friends (I've never had to do my tax on my own before) so now I just need to mail it off. At least that's one less thing to do.

What else?

There's this old lady who comes in to work and she told us how her husband replies to telemarketers.

Telemarketer: Hello, how are you today?
Husband: Oh, I'm so glad you asked, I've had the most dreadful day...

Of course, that works so much better when you're an old person who likes to talk. You know the type:

Me: Terrible weather today, isn't it?
Old lady: Oh yes, and my husband and son were going to go to a dog show on the central coast. They go every year. They went last year and they had the most wonderful time; met up with a few old friends. My brother-in-law breeds cattle dogs, you see...

Something like that, at least, I sort of tuned out after the first thirty seconds and just got through with appropriate "hm" sounds.

I love old people, but gosh, they're funny sometimes.
