Punishingly Intricate

Oy, I think I need a personal banker. But they probably charge money that I can't afford, which defeats the purpose.

Actually, the lady I work with is at Wachovia, my bank, and it doesn't cost me anything. I started working with her years ago when my company made some sort of deal with the bank (it wasn't Wachovia then...some bank that Wachovia subsequently subsumed) to come talk to the employees here about changing banks or whatever. It was a good time for me to change so I opened an account. So my PB helped me open my account and then she'll call every 6 months or so to find out if I have any new financial issues or questions. I don't think I did my initial mortgage through them but a year or so after I bought my house she helped me refinance and then get a line of credit and she's done other things for me over the years. And now she's helping me get a new mortgage that will let me consolidate all my stupid credit card debt AND it's going to shorten the length of my loan AND cut my monthly payment substantially (where Wachovia makes the money off of me is that now they will hold my mortgage, see?). She's using some kind of financial voodoo I guess. And she's also very patient and not condescending with me even though I'm a financial idiot basically.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sail, what lisah said. I don't know if you have an account with the bank I work for, but I can send you Personal Banker recommendations for your area.

The mechanic is going to look at the car today. AAA is on their way to tow it. It's late enough in the day to be eating ice cream out of the carton, right?

Please aim any extra health~ma you have toward SoCal this afternoon. GF's dad has the dreaded appointment in which we get actual information on treatment/prognosis. I have a pit in my stomach just thinking about it.

And something positive - I made a couple of new friends in my Metadata class last night, and my prof already knows who I am (only the 2nd class). Yay!
