Dollars and CentsSo I decided to call my mortgage guy. I wanted to get the best deal on a mortage for my new house purchase. So I said to him “What can you get me?”. He says to me “We have an interest only mortgage.” I think to my self…hmmm sounds exclusive. “Interest only mortgage” I say. “I’m interested in a mortgage, I’ll take that!” He then says, “It’s an adjustable rate mortgage.” I think to myself “perfect…if I ever get in trouble paying this mortgage, I can always adjust the rate to something I can afford. I say “I’ll take it!” before he can change his mind. Who would want a mortgage that your not interested in or can’t adjust?

I sign the paper’s without taking time to read them because I don’t want him changing his mind. What a chump!

My Tivo remote stopped working this weekend. Only one button worked.

I’m scared. No TV has forced me to….gasp…listen to the radio while not in the car, rent movies that are so-so, pay attention when others (wife) are speaking, etc. etc.

When will the agony stop!

UPDATE: I ordered a new TIVO remote from www.weaknees.com and it worked! I’m back baby!
