life

My daughter sometimes works as a waitress at the local Pizza Express. If she has a good night then sometimes she can earn more in tips than her wages (although that is not very often).

In the TED talk The four-letter code to selling anything Derek Thompson explains about a concept called MAYA.

I once heard that the way you can tell if something is actually funny is that it causes you to laugh out loud even when you are by yourself. It is much easier to laugh at something when surrounded by others.

Today is my daughter's last official day at school - they have a party for about an hour tomorrow so that doesn't count.

Some times expectations are met, or exceeded, and sometimes they fail to be met.
