Money into retirement= money I pretend I don't have, until retirement. Which reminds me, also will need to rollover my 401(k) into the 403. I think?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I have a gazillion options. It's overwhelming. I need a spreadsheet, but like I have the time.

Yeah. I kind of love thinking about this stuff (nerd alert!), but it can definitely be overwhelming. If you know both TIAA and Fidelity offer a ton of fund options, though, then probably either one would be fine. Would it help if you just flipped a coin? Or is there something specific you want to look for (or avoid)?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hil, do you want to see it opening night and/or a different date? I'm probably going to get tickets soon-ish, so let me know. (By "opening night," I mean Friday, probably a 9-ish show, given how long it takes Tim to leave work.)
Sure! Email me to work out details.

I just want to not be a slackards by default! I want to inform myself enough that I'm at least making a better decision than coin flip, but not striving for perfect. I love data, but I actually hate dealing with finances. Because I feel like an idiot (because I am, beyond 'save a lot.')

Meanwhile, here I am planning more phone calls when I still have holes in my ceiling because...I haven't had time to make phone calls...

Will do! Probably tomorrow, because an article that I thought would be easy has turned into a nightmare and I'm still working.

Anyone got advice Tiaacref vs Fidelity?
I do not, but there's an Ask MetaFilter thread on it: [link]

Already hit that thread.

why do I live in such a crap town for food delivery! I don't want pizza! I want Chinese! Why does the website that says it's for food delivery point me to places that say No Delivery! This is a freaking college town! One of the largest private universities in the country is barely two miles away from me! Do none of them order anything but pizza? Yes, I could go pick it up, but the point was that I could come home and not have to leave the house again. Bah.
