Easy come, easy go.

Monday night, I applied for a nearly $1M mortgage. It's about average for where I live. I feel like I should be freaking out about this more than I am. I guess I don't have reason to freak until I sign on the dotted line.

Tonight I'm going to file a tax return for what I hope is my last ever refund in the lowest five figures. Well, at least I hope it's my last outsize tax refund that's the result of paying a bunch of alimony. Making zero-nominal-interest loans to the government isn't something I'm really into for any reason.
