Off to mail in my tax returns and bills. I'd be happier if I could find my credit-card bill, but I'm sure it'll turn up (probably right next to the Minicon notebook).

For some peculiar reason Fidelity does not let me transfer money from my money-market account to my IRA through their website. I had to call a broker and do it that way. At one point, while waiting for the computer to do something, the broker chatted with me about the weather here in California versus there in Texas. Okay, fine, except the whole time there's this little voice in the back of my head going "This is normal social lubricant. Do not freak." Which makes me wonder if other people get that, too.
