Yesterday I met with a mortgage broker, the same one Julian is using, to get a new loan. After the information is loaded into the computer we should have the approval in a week or so. Not much work gets done this time of year, or it would be sooner. After the approval, we will wait until the rates go down to at least 4.8 percent, then we will lock in the rate and get the appraisal, which has to be paid for. In other words, if I don't get the rate, I don't have to pay. Within a month or so, I should have the money. This guy seems pretty good, so Joshua and Jason may want to use him too.
Last night I watched a DVD of the Movie Lawn Dogs. It had a cast of actors that were completely unknown to me, and the story was not very appealing. The characters were mostly unpleasant and in spite of a somewhat hopeful ending I give it only three stars.
I am not going to stay up late to celebrate the new year tonight. I am going to bed early so I can get up at 5:30 tomorrow morning and join some friends in Palo Alto to go down to Asilomar for the day. Sally and I used to join this group every year for a few days around New Year's eve. The friends I had dinner with at Sundance a few days ago persuaded me to come down for a one day visit.
