Walking around in a daze.

We opened escrow yesterday. This whole “I’m going to be a homeowner” thing hasn’t quite sunk in yet. YHOO had a nice run on Monday, so I shot off some stock options… not work nearly as much as they could have been in the past, but enough to make my down payment a bit larger and reduce my monthly bill. Of course, now I have to figure out how to shuffle money around my different accounts. I’ve got 44 days to figure it out until escrow closes, though.

I finally cancelled my PSO for Game Cube hunter’s license. I hadn’t played in almost two months, so that was twenty wasted dollars. At least I ended up using my efax.com fax number just recently for house stuff, otherwise that $10/month would seem wasted as well.

I’m almost done with cataloging my Magic: the Gathering collection. I’ve got one and a half sets to go, then I get to compile all the stuff I’m missing and all the extras after setting aside the folders with the cards I’ll actually use. When I’m done, I’ll take a picture of the pile of extra common cards. It’s already quite impressive… and you have to consider that I’ve already done a great purge of giving away extra commons about four years ago… so this isn’t as many as it could be.

Time to go to bed, tomorrow morning I go back to Washington Mutual (which from this point on will be referred to as The Bank) to give them updated paperwork.
