Punishable by law

For the last year, I've been trying to gain ownership of a motorcycle sold to me by a family friend of my girlfriend's. Hoops upon hoops, I don't know if I have the energy to jump through any more. The point of todays story is a declaration with my signature that guarantees my statement is the truth and is punishable by law if it turns out to be false.

I wasn't told what to write, I just assumed I was to write my story of what has happened so far, which was what I did. The guy at the notary asked if I was sure, if I wanted to add more, that more is better than less. He signed it, stamped it and charged me half price. I hope it's enough and doesn't come back to bite me in the ass. I've been looking forward to riding and want to get on it already.

Helping those in need

I stopped in at the library this morning, before starting work for the day. I borrowed Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time and H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds for some reading, after I've finished Bram Stoker's Dracula of course. The latter should be finished tonight.

My sole purpose of entering the library was to pay my late fees. My school is in transition from one institution to another and I am worried that if I do not pay my fees ($10) that even so small a fine will hurt me later on. For all I know, the fine could prevent myself obtaining my graduation. I was prepared to pay the fine, and had in fact placed my money on the counter (it's about time, as the fee has been growing over the last 3 years), when the librarian informed me they are promoting "food for fines". This means, they will accept one food item per late fee to clear the fines. 5 food items, in the form of pasta/canned/etc seems a good deal to me, in helping the local food bank.

Mothers

It's Mothers day, soon. I have not forgotten. I've got a card for my Mom right here, waiting for me to write something nice in it, address it and post it. I love you, Mom.

Back to Work

Tomorrow, the first official day of my summer occupation. Back to the moth research after only a couple days off.
