Today I got to leave the office for a while
because I had to go to the immigration office
and make some changes to my work visa. Luckily
there's an immigration branch office close
to my company.
However, the mission was a bit of a failure,
I wasn't able to get the updated visa because
I didn't have all of the necessary documentation
-- pretty typical. I ended up just waiting
around for half an hour with all of these
Russian prostitutes who were renewing their
"Specialist in Humanities/International
Services," visas, same type of visa
as me.
The upside of it all was that I got to take
a lot of pictures on the way over there,
and that's where the first three photos in
today's post are from. I posted the last
photo, of Jack, in response to a certain
complaint that reached my ears about how
Monday's pictures of him were not up to snuff
and just did not portray the vast depth of
his cuteness. So, I fished around for a 'cute'
picture, and that's what I came up with.

In other news, the computer shop was
able
to rescue the data on my dead computer,
so
please disregard the request for email
addresses
that I made in my last post on Monday.

It's been a while since I've had a baby-day
here at hunkabutta. Karen and Jack will be
home from Canada in a few days, and I just
can't wait.
Intelligence reports from Vancouver have
lead me to believe that Jack is an immensely
popular baby in that part of the world. Yes,
well, what else would you expect?
------------------------------
Some bad news on the technological front.
My main computer at work died a couple of
days ago. It's in the shop right now, but
there's a chance that I'll lose the data
that I had stored on it. For the most part
this is no problem because I backed-up the
really important stuff on CD, with one exception:
my email addresses.
So, this is a call to all of my friends out
there: PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL MESSAGE SO
THAT I CAN GET YOUR ADDRESSES.
I will repeat this call in future posts to
make sure as many people as possible see
it.
Even if you don't consider yourself 'my friend',
please feel free to drop me a line. I love
getting email.

How embarrassing! It turns out I was wrong
about Karen and Jack's return date. They're
actually coming back on the 25th, next Thursday.
I guess I was just too eager to have
them back and assumed that they'd be flying
in on the weekend.
Oh well, I guess one more weekend of pizza
and beer won't kill me.

Karen and Jack are coming home this weekend
-- Yaay! I sure do miss 'em.

The most cynical and sarcastic comic that
I have ever read in my life can be found
here. It's about "Operation Enduring Freedom".
