Yesterday ( in coal mine news )

Yesterday was a good day. (This despite having started reading a coming-of-age novel that turned out to be slightly prophetic the night before.) I finished reading In for a Penny.

Ice Road Truckers! Tonight! Eeee. *geeks out*

Yesterday, I received my new, non-expired passport, only a week after sending for it! So hurtle #1 for can_con2008 has been, uh, hurdled. Hurtle #2 is the whole room/roommate thing. I have two months. *handwaves*
