So, if you go to that game I posted about yesterday? It has variations! Apparently I know nothing about flags, and my default guess of "the Netherlands" got me exactly nowhere.
There's also an option for more localized geographic areas; I did well in Canada right up until the Maritimes, though not as well as you might expect in the U.S.
Well, unless you're Anja, in which case you might expect me to do just about as poorly as I did. :P
Today was my last day of work before a 5-day break (for WIIMAS!!), then it's two short days and another weekend. The only sad part is that I have to work on Dec. 31st. I can't remember the last time that wasn't a holiday for me! I wish they'd let me trade something else - say, Xmas, or Boxing Day! - but it is sadly not allowed. Whatever!
The big news 'round our parts is that finally, at long last, after 4 months of wrangling and calling more than 15 contractors*, Alex and I have a contractor to re-do our kitchen!!! We're set to start Feb. 18th, so now comes the real big push to actually, uh, sort through our shit and get rid of some of it. I'm sure that won't be a problem...
*3 of the 4 contractors who actually deigned to show up at our house and check over the project declined to actually quote us an estimate for the job. Do you think we should be insulted???
