Quaker Oats sent me a coupon for $4.50! That really knocked my socks off!

Over the weekend, Rob and I got some DVDs at Best Buy. Eagle Vs Shark and Johnny Suede. Eagle Vs Shark was really cute and quirky and starred the one guy from Flight of the Conchords. Johnny Suede is a movie I have been wanting to see ever since I was in High School. I just never got around to it. Rob brought it over to me in Best Buy, “Check out who’s in this movie!”
“Oh Rob! You know I am not a Brad Pitt fan.”
“Just look!”
“Oh!!!!!! It’s Nick Cave!”
Rob didn’t even ask if we should get it, he just immediately put it in the buy stack. We watched it last night and it was just plain weird. When it ended, we both said in unison, “I don’t get it.” The one thing I am sure of is Catherine Keener later got a nose job because she had a “hook” in Johnny Suede.

The other day I was grumbling about my bank Wachovia (aka Wa-Caca). Over the last few days, I have been making mucho phone calls to CSchwab and I gotta tell you, so far, I am really impressed. They even have nice, helpful people working late Sunday night! Hats off to CSchwab!

My mind has really been overwhelmed with getting my finances together. So much so that I have noticed my focus on keeping my clothes hanging up and folded has lapsed a bit. That seems rather typical. The good news is that my finances should be totally together by the end of this week. Okay, maybe not totally together but in a better state than they were. I already feel a sense of accomplishment. I just wish it could come together faster. I hate that there are so many forms that need signing and stuff that needs activating. Very soon it will all be over. Very soon I will finally be in a state where I can breath easier. It’s funny how long I have allowed myself to cringe over something that has been very simple to fix. I am close– I am almost there!
