Big and beautiful, my ass! Rage update!

The good news is that the markets continue to rally, and I made a kerbillion dollars last month. This is happening even though I’ve now moved all my funds to conservative low growth accounts. So wow! But can I live on a kerbillion dollars a month? One wonders. Puzzles ain’t cheap, y’all! It’s the first of the month, so I’m updating all my cash tracking charts today. The Boldin Tool continues to tell me all is fine, and the two highest probability retirement scenarios are “do nothing” and “pack your bags now and move to Tennessee” – 98% and 99% respectively probability of success. Thus, I think I’ll continue to sit on my ass and do nothing. I’m very busy.

In other money-related news, I have discovered after some digging that I have 6.5 years of service in the state retirement system from my job at the Red Bakery. I have a small pension coming from that of about $500 a month. Not lottery-dream-home money, but definitely booze money. I’d always been focused on and tracking the pension payout, but hadn’t paid much attention to the years of service credits. The important update is as follows. The possible Local Bakery job is a state benefits position. My current job at the Brown Bakery is not a state benefits position. I technically work for an affiliated subsidiary private organization and thus do not get that deluxe benefits package. If I were to go back on the state’s books, I’d be growing that state pension payout. Additionally, I’d also be eligible for healthcare-for-life after accumulating 10 years of service – just 3.5 years away! That is a huge carrot and something I need to think about. Could I work 3.5 more years before I crash and burn in a ball of fire? We’ll see. Regardless, reviewing and comparing options is always a good thing.

There is a slight probability that I’ll do my tax return today. Or perhaps I’ll get it started. I think I have everything I need. But I got a lot of index cards to chew through – chores! – before I can do anything extra. Steps deficit!

Puzzle done

Wow! I think I’ve really outdone myself. The Chernobyl video is so great! I can’t wait to share it. I’m about halfway done. Check out my pulsating reactor!

My Chernobyl video is sending me! Ha ha!

Haircut 100

I literally just scream laughed!

Did you wash your shower curtain today?

Another kick-ass reading month!

The only one of my plants that seems to enjoy winter.

Friday Fantasy

Have you met my boyfriend Shawn on Nikita?

When you trudge through four foot of snow several times per day, your pants get soaking wet. After I parked my car, I helped a few of the old folks unbury and move their cars. I have one of those extending snow brooms in my car. I don’t fuck around.

After two days of hell-on-earth, they are finally plowing the four feet of snow out of our parking lot. I dug out my car around four o’clock because I have to got to Syracuse tomorrow and didn’t want to do it in the morning. I went over to Mr. K’s for dinner. I’m now back home but sitting in my car on the street waiting. I don’t want to get in their way. I’m not quite sure where they’ll put all the snow. But I’ll wait while they figure it out.

Picture of BigM.

Car was buried. Took a good ten minutes of rolling to get it out.

I am having way too much fun making my Chernobyl video! Tee hee! I am vibrating with creative ideas. So much fun.

Oh! I won another class action lawsuit and got a windfall check (of like $4). Wee! I work around-the-clock to pay my billz!

What? It’s International Puzzle Day! Is Big Fatty aware? I feel like this needs to be on his mark in calendar.

Send HALP! On the bright side, having six feet of snow drifted against my building provides some additional insulation and my heat is thankful.

Ok this is defcon 1. The snow has never been this high. I cannot see the BigM sign anymore.
