Quick Notes

1. My old company’s 401k plan finally rebounded back to $24K this week. It’s bad that I haven’t rolled the funds over, but I like the international funds available to me there. I think I will wait a bit longer to do the rollover though since I’d like the balance to rebound back up to about $27K before rolling over. (I prefer to sell and move the cash. Then I can reallocate.)
2. I think I’m going to donate $100 each to Doctors Without Borders for Myanmar and China as a one-time donation. My company is doing a matching donation, and gratefully, no one in our China division has been directly effected by the earthquake.
3. The awesome Thai restaurant near my house will substitute tofu in my favorite curry. I swear, I opened the box and it looked just like chicken. The texture was different, but I needed the visual illusion last night. I *almost* ordered meat for dinner, but I’m still trying to eat meat only once a day.
4. I had lunch for $1.05 on Monday. That was for a small soda at McDonald’s. For some reason, boyfriend got some free chicken sandwich coupons in the mail. All I had to do was walk into a store with the coupon and redeem. Very easy. I have one coupon left for a breakfast sandwich. I’ve had them before. They’re really greasy so I’m not sure I will get one, but it’s nice to know I have a freebie if I’m hungry. Maybe I’ll give it to the next homeless guy I see.
