magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

I met with a financial counselor this morning. I'll leave aside the specific details, but in short, it was something I needed to do. I've been living very much paycheck-to-paycheck since that whole economic downturn thing. And when I have had a few extra bucks, I have for the most part just frittered it away. It's certainly not as easy as just an hour and a half of expert advice and everything is all better (understatement of the year) but it's a real, concrete, take some responsibility step.

Trivial Dispute was not a total wash. We were pretty mediocre across the board answer-wise (6th place out of about 17 teams) but we did win best team name and ended up with a dollar store, party favour bag of plastic, dollar-sign bling rings (to continue the theme of the day). And I won a shot question for knowing where a beer that I really can't stand is brewed.
