Hemmoraging $$
Whew--my credit card is worn out! Major expenses this week include:
1. Travel insurance (see previous entry about futility of travel insurance)
2. Prescription medication (see previous entry about how drug companies are making billions off the backs of the uninsured)
3. New computer (see previous entry about sadness related to lack of wireless internet at school)
All of which is to say that the big chunk of change from my condo sale is quickly looking like a pittance. Well, perhaps not a pittance, but certainly not the "roll around naked in $100 bills" fantasy it once was. I've been investigating possible investment options--you would think that after working for 3 years at an asset management company that I would have some idea of what I was doing. Let me be clear, I do not. But it's VERY fun to consider opening accounts like a real adult.
On tonight's agenda is a trip to The Container Store to purchase an accordion folder for all my Sweden-related paperwork. The pile on my pseudo-desk (it's also Janie's play area and the scrapbooking area) is getting unmanageable.
