Happy Valentine’s Day mama and daddio!!

Are you having surf and turf?? Doing anything special? Hahaha, I know the answer to that one! It’s the same for me.

Jim is at school till 8 or 9. I got home around 7. Liam and I are spending it together. I made his favourite dish – beef and broccoli. Other than that nothing really special. Sad isn’t it? Hate these days cause it makes you build up expectations only to be let down. The adult in me knows it’s just another day, don’t make a big deal about it. The 16 year old girl in me wants today to be filled with romance and surprises... Sigh. I did however get Valentine’s Day wishes from the parking lot attendant... He’s about 60, bald and crusty. I’m sure he wished everyone a happy V-Day... Hey, at least I got one!

Oh wait, I did get a surprise today! My car insurance called me to tell me that my driver’s license hasn’t been renewed???! WTF? I checked my license and sure enough. It expired June of last year! How did that happen?? And, I’ve gotten a speeding ticket since that time. How did they miss that? Anyways, I’ll run around tomorrow to renew it. Crappers...

Did you watch the Grammies last night? I caught bits and pieces as I was surrounded by receipts on the floor. Yes, I started my taxes... Ugh. It’s just killing me!!! Can’t wait till it’s all done. I think I’m still going to send it to my accountant in Cambridge. I just hate starting all over again with someone I don’t know or know me. It’s stressful enough as it is.

Oh, I finally used the Kitchen Aid knife to slice the meat tonight! OMG – It’s the greatest thing ever!!!! I love it, thank you so much for buying it for me. I really do regret not using it sooner! You know this blog is really turning into a food journal, isn’t it? I kinda like it...

Tonight Liam showed me a online video game that he’s been working on. It’s here at http://www.broodingsky.deviantart.com/#/d39c25p

I wouldn’t suggest you going to it as you have to sign in and then actually play the game. Well, maybe you might be adventuresome?! He did all the programming and graphics. I was totally impressed!!! The functionality was very high level and well thought out. He said his graphics were crude but I didn’t think so. I quite liked the characters and background graphics. And the SFX were amazing too. I was so proud of him when I saw this. He’s pretty proud of it too. Brilliant for a 16 year old on his own initiative. I want him to show the guys in the studio...
