Sleeper Cell
I’m pretty sure a sleeper cell has nothing to do with this post. In fact I’m positive other than I did not sleep last night as my mind ran through worst case scenarios for a major software release today. Hooray for butterflies!
Since posting about a month ago about stinking on keeping track of money I’ve been using Mint.com. Yup, I’m using an online service. So far I’m not thrilled with where we’re at and what we have to do to get where we need to be. That’s rather blunt, but the financial news just seems to be pouring in about how banks are on the fritz, my home loan is going to cause my pants to explode, and how Warren Buffet is sad about the economy but generally not personally worried that he’ll lose all of his tens of billions.
I’ve also started a quick & dirty coffee blog with a couple friends (if you would like to join and write about coffees you’re enjoying/trying, shoot me an email. You can read about my first of six beans that I’m roasting from the latest order here.
As for the Watch My Money Maker Weekly podcast I need to get on that. I’ve got 100 excuses, all of which end in, “but I just didn’t make it a priority.” So since this weekend I’ll be out of town and solo I may have time since I don’t tend to sleep a lot on trips like this. Sleep is over-rated any way.

Actually, I love Mint.com. I used to use Wesabe a lot, but I like Mint’s ease of use. The security doesn’t have me concerned and while I’d like to add other features that I might find useful, the simplicity and ease of use wins for me.
