Canada approves same-sex unions! *cheers*

Folks, I am mighty proud to be a Canadian right now.

Yep, mighty proud indeed!

We join the Netherlands and Belgium as the third country in the world to officially recognize same-sex unions.

Although gay marriage is already legal in seven provinces, the bill grants all gay and lesbian couples equal legal rights to those in a traditional union between a man and a woman.

Honestly, this might be the best national news I've heard all year.

Howl's Moving Castle

Saw the late showing of "Howl's Moving Castle" last night with George. The story was weak/disjointed in places, but the amazing visuals made up for it in my opinion.

Today, shaking with anxiety again. And doing laundry. Later, going out to buy smokies (a type of hotdog) for George's family's barbecue in Selkirk on Friday (Canada Day). Hopefully also going out to wire payment for a scanner via Western Union to a fellow in California -- IF he gets back to me at a reasonable time with the final invoice amount including shipping and handling.

Have to stock up on more medication too.

Bleh.

My measured IQ is 143, so...

Like morgaine_inanna, I do not want to work today either.

A Quick and Dirty IQ Test

Considering that the General Knowledge questions contained some US history (which I'm not up on), I don' t think I did too badly. My measured IQ is around 143.

There...

Okay -- meds and smokies bought. The latter were a bit of a challenge, since Osborne Village (the neighborhood through which the Corydon route bus usually passes on its way to the Safeway) was closed after 6 pm in preparation for tomorrow's Canada Day celebrations, but in the end it all got done. The bus detours, while initially confusing, weren't that horrendous after all.

A load of laundry done too. *cheers faintly*

Some flatting/painting done on the Hardy Boys graphic novel as well. I just did a docket, and it turns out they still owe me 37-odd pages out of an 84-page comic. *boggles, groans, turns pale*

Three DegSep ficlets burning in my brain, and no time or energy to get them out.

*lays head down and sighs*

Thank God my period is between two and seven days away. I suspect that when it comes (which can't be soon enough at this point), my mood will break. At least I hope so, oh yes, I do.
