Oct. 14th, 2008 06:23 pmI had been resolutely avoiding looking at my 403(b) and Roth accounts. This afternoon I broke down and took a look. I should have kept with my first instinct. Ouch! It's a good thing that I'm not close to retirement age.
In things making me happy:

sg_betty has made another sg1 vid for me. You can see it here: Help. I think it's quite cute and fun.
* I'm really happy with the way things are going with Tom. Within the last month or so, it feels like we've really turned a corner with each other. I rediscovered my sense of humor about some things. He's starting to settle down ever so slightly (though the attendant at doggy daycare--I take him once a week--did wonder how many cups of coffee he drinks in the morning. hee!). He's always been a good dog, but, in the last few weeks, I feel like I'm really starting to see the dog that he's becoming. A little bit of a scoundrel, but a good, smart dog. This makes me feel a little teary with happiness sometimes. Which is far better than the tears of frustration that I had from time to time in the first couple of months.
* I have a new story almost ready to post. It's a story idea that I'm very excited about, but has also been a struggle to execute. I don't know if anyone other than me will like it, but I'm very pleased have accomplished this one.
[Heh. There may or may not be some irony in that fact that in the course of writing this post, I had to chase Tom away from the trash can at least five times. :D]
