Chapter 40

It's been one of those weeks.  My nephew has been sick, and yesterday, I got a letter telling me my insurance premiums were doubling... if you follow my budgeting blog, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth over the 5 mil person gap in the AFA. U.S. readers you probably ought to head over to www.healthcare.gov and see what you qualify for; the March 31st deadline draws near. My space bar is sticking on my keyboard, which is more than mildly annoying. Nothing truly devastating to report, just a pile of things that are a tad hair pulling, yet some wonderful things too.

I was pleased with this week's chapter in the story that never ends Horse Feathers.   It got posted a bit late in the day due to the above panic and the need to watch G1 episodes of MLP with the nephew on YouTube. Apparently My Little Pony makes you smart, since he managed to master the concept of negative numbers over dinner. (He's 5, so that seems brag worthy.)

For my own reading, I'm well into Dombey and Son which thus far I'd only recommend for hardcore Dickens fans.
