Victoria day

Dum-de-dum.

I wish I could say something about how useful I was today and how much I got done - but any of those would a just a big lie. It's Victoria Day today in Canada, therefore a holiday - for some reason Canadians still celebrate Queen Victoria's (1837-1901) birthday. Or I guess I shouldn't be too surprised - it's a holiday, so any excuse is welcome, might as well be ole Vic's birthday.

And I've had the joy of having Dragon at home too today - three days in a row, that must be some kind of a record. So we spent the day doing absolutely nothing - I chatted with Chu, we watched some wrestling, took a long nap... We were supposed to have a gaming night with Laura and Clay but unfortunately that got cancelled.

I almost forgot - something useful actually did happen. I found my passport and drivers' license - I thought I might had lost them few weeks back and was very relieved to find them. I had put them "in a safe place" - you know one of those places that are are safe even from yourself. Now that I have located it, I can actually start to apply for a new one, and I could do this well ahead this time, for a change - my current passport exipers in December. It's going to be strange - I'm one of those rare Finns who still have a blue pre-EU passport, and I'm actually attached to it.

Congratulations! Where did you find them? Sometimes objects hide or disguise themselves from us. They lay still in the place where they are supposed to lay and laugh.

Too easy - at the computer desk, second level - the eye level. I had put it in the back, for some reason, and I have absolutely no recollection of doing this.
