A.A. to the third power

Tumultuous day involving inept academic administration (A.A. 1), cross-border visa issues that forced me to deal with American assholes (A.A. 2), frustration with those who can't seem to give straight answers to direct and succinct questions, and exhaustion when I realize that it's not going to end quickly even though I'm on a very strict and specific timeline.

The solution? Mindless TV-watching and a tall gin 'n' tonic (which may, technically, eventually require A.A. 3--the real A.A.)--anyone want to be a drinking buddy? :/

Across the border I had a gigantic glass of Baileys' (it followed half a bar of dark chocolate)...all I can say to your cross-border issues is- I hear ya!I second your take on all the A.A.'s!
Good luck for tomorrow and cheers:o)

Of course! I'm thinking...bathmats, University of Western Ontario, rowers, and a lifetime collection of Coke paraphernalia! So awesome to hear from you, Zacs dad! I happened to meet a man (not you) who was also the dad of a kid named Zac in Cuba in January. Eeeeeerrrriiieee, isn't it?
