“The less confident you are, the more serious you have to act.”
– Tara Ploughman
i do see myself as sort of a cultural treasure, but I am a goofball and don’t take myself very seriously. My kids call me “dude”. I control almost nothing. And yeah, I am amusing in person. I sort of see it as part of my job description to make others like me so that I might persuade them, or at least momentarily distract jurors from a bad fact. But still, it’s nice of you to say.
I’m also stunned that interest rates didn’t plummet immediately after I locked one in, but instead, rose steeply. Theoretically it’s possible that i may have hit a recent bottom in that regard, and, well, probably some day, maybe pretty seoon, we’ll look back and say 4.x%!!!???? weird!
