DOUBLE-PLUS UNGOOD 

I am in one Hellishly foul mood. Little guy is still sick, and it turns out there's H1N1 making the rounds in his class. Get him a shot? It's too late - which are three words you'll be hearing with increasing frequency in the days ahead. Way to go, Harper "government."

That's not all: some asshole broke into our van last night. Glass shards, mess everywhere. They grabbed a GPS worth maybe a hundred bucks, and caused about $600 in damage. The only good news is that they've likely been captured on some infrared cameras my neighbour and I put up.

Meanwhile, we've got kids to get to and from hockey, swimming and birthday parties, and now no way to do it.

It's going to be one of those fucking days.
