I feel better. I deposited a couple big checks today. And given that it's also the first of the month, which is when I normally pay myself, I took the opportunity to pay off my credit card, which is the only real debt I have. For years I had kept the balance down to nothing, by paying it off every month. (And relatedly, never getting an increase in my credit limit). But early last year, I got hit with a series of expenses, such as needing to replace my old laptop earlier than expected. And while it never even reached $4,000 at it's worst, it still bugged me knowing that it was there.

But now it's gone.

I took that picture above while I was just walking home yesterday. I've been here so long I very easily forget how much there is to this place. Almost any kind of travel refreshes my vision of the city. And I try occasionally to take pictures of that 'bigness', because I know enough people who don't see it every day.
