awhyzipIt's almost my birthday again.
Yay. I like birthdays.
I'm going to spend the actual day flying back from Florida, after a friends' wedding. So, with that day out of consideration, I'm not sure what, if anything, I will do for formal celebrations.
Other observances for my birthday: I have set 25 as the age by which I must have begun retirement investing. Also, I'd like to have my "important shit" enough in order that I can function without having to call up my parents and ask *them* to tell me the things I should know. I have made significant progress on that front by tackling my "box o' 'important' shit" -- ie Bank & Credit Card Statements, Insurance Policies, Notorized Name Change Documents, Car Titles, etc -- and sorting it into those above-mentioned categories :-). At this rate I can have a [hopefully]-sustainable organization system in place before before the last-year-to-be-on-time countdown begins! (That means I am turning 24... not 25 yet, in case this was confusing.)
The other observance for a birthday is to pull together a list of things that would be happy gifts, for the edification of those inclined to give me things. I'm behind on that one. (Super-short version: "Socks.") But i feel great about the Box.
When I was going thru the Box, I found a expired check for $600 and was able to get it re-issued -- YAY!
Also, I heard back from potential new employer that I should recieve a formal offer from them by Wednesday.
