damn governmentThe government adjusted my tax return for last year and sent me a bill for a whole $6.30 for CPP or something. But then, to add injury to insult, the damn envelope that came in gave me a paper cut. Now it's all red and sore. I think it's infected. Damn government. I'm trying to sort out financial stuff for the house. Looks like I can make a 10% downpayment easy and still have some money in the old retirement fund. That's good. I kinda wanted to play a trick where I can dump a few thousand into an RRSP and then immediately withdraw it for the first time homebuyers thing and still get to claim it on income tax. Looks like they already saw through that plan, though. Any money has to be in there for 90 days or something. Damn government. Curses! Around the start of the year I was kind of wavering on whether I'd actually go to many conventions at all this year, besides the necessary Anime North. Last year was a record for me, con-wise, but a lot of it was "meh" for the most part. Now I'm definitely going to Ad Astra in April and kinda sorta tentatively planning on doing Lunacon in goddamn New York City in March. And I figure I'll do Toronto Trek come July because I'm sure DWIN will have been bolstered by having Doctor Who on CBC starting in March/April and TT is the only con with any Doctor Who programming at all, so it'll be cool to see what happens there. And I'll probably go to CNA again just because it's an excuse to hang out with people. So yeah. Cons. Huh. House hunting continues. No leads for the last week. I think my agent was sick with a cold or something. Today she's off looking at an open house for me, so that's good. If it doesn't suck, I might check that out tomorrow. comments:
