I'm sitting in my dentist's office right now waiting for my biannual checkup and cleaning, so time for a few quick news blurbs. SAlC, the company I work for, is going forward with an IPO. This has been a long time coming and is good news for my wife and I, has I had loaded up on stock over a year ago and had been trying to hold onto as much as was practical as after IPO after IPO date slipped. Initially I had hoped to make a real killing, but time and research has dampened this initial enthusiasm. While I hope to pay off in full some debts from previous bad decisions, I no longer expect to make tens of thousands in profit, let alone become an over night millionaire like the crew at YouTube whose company just got bought by Google. Still I will be watching the trade letters SAI on the New York Stock Exchange with great expectation tomorrow -- Friday the 13th (Doh!) Hopefully this will leave us well positioned financially as I look for a House for us early next year.

No cavities today, so we'll take that as the good omen looking forward to tomorrow's trade.

There are things to say about Nian's visa application, but I'll wait till I get to a real keyboard to say something about that.
