Today would have been Dad’s 62nd birthday. There’s really not much more I can add to that, so let’s just get to the friday5.org Friday Five.

1. What was the last thing you filled out a written application for?
When I went to the BMV to renew my driver’s license earlier this month I think I only had to sign a sheet after the attendant asked me a bunch of questions, so I won’t count that. The last written applications of any kind I can remember are things regarding retirement funds and the like I filled out after I got hired at MCCC.

2. What computer application software last impressed you with what it could do?
I honestly don’t have an answer here simply because I tend to use the same software over and over again. I intend on constructing Yggdrasil Mark II later this year, though, so perhaps I’ll have a chance to try out some new stuff here soon.

3. Where did you last apply a Band-Aid?
Probably a finger; my hands certainly got cut to heck when I got a really, really bad case of winter skin about a month ago.

4. What’s a rule that applies to many people in your life but not to you?
Worry about the finances later. We will have some money coming to us here shortly, but I am perhaps overly paranoid in wanting to save as much money as possible here until we actually have the money that’s coming in our accounts.

5. When were you last required to apply some elbow grease to something?
Fixing the keyboard drawer on my computer desk here when the screws on the right side came off. It’s only on via a patch job now, but my sister finally found the anchor for my old articulating keyboard drawer here soon, so I hope to attach that to this desk sometime soon.
