Today is Canada Day. As I have declared myself an independent nation (though still not officially recognized) you’d think that this holiday wouldn’t affect me much. But instead, I get to go to work a full three hours later than usual tonight. Usually, I’d be there now, even. Good times.

I feel like today would have been a good time for writing. But I squandered it for that sake. Instead I read and worked on my computer a little more. On that front, I’ve progressed again. I’ve got the computer so that it turns on and works with the mouse and keyboard and speakers and all that. Except the CD-Rom, which it appears not to know exists. I can only assume I’ve still got some rewiring to do. It won’t be long now, though.
