So, how did I celebrate Kalle Lassn’s favourite day? With the payment of an auto repair bill in excess of $500, topped off by some Christmas shopping, a couple of slices of pizza, and the weekly grocery run.

I wouldn’t have minded paying less.

PS: I’ve made a mild administrative change to comments: no registration is necessary to comment now. I’m praying that Blogger’s word verification will reduce comment spam, and the fact that I have 23 readers will take care of the rest of the potential problems.
