What's that conspiracy theory about banks again?

I have my thesis defense today. I keep reminding myself that I should be more nervous. It's not that I'm so confident that my thesis is a masterpiece or anything. I think I'm just tired of being worried about it. I know there's nothing I can do. They've had it for a couple of weeks, they've read it, they already know what they're going to say to me. The purpose of this is to beat me up a little bit, so I know there's no way I'm going to walk in there and get a "Great job!" or anything. I'm just so ready to be done with that fucker.

We had a scare on the house yesterday. The bank sent us some disclosure documents with an interest rate over half a point higher than we're supposed to be getting. We freaked out and called the mortgage broker, who wasn't there, and in the time between then and when he called us back (probably about 10 minutes) we got so angry that we decided we would walk away from this deal if we had to. It turned out to be nothing. The broker gave us some weird explanation for why they did that, but I know the real reason...they were hoping we would just sign them.

In other news, seems the side effects of the medicine I'm on, the terrible heart pounding and racing, get better when I eat meat. This is a problem. I'm supposed to be a vegetarian. I think meat, dairy and eggs cause cancer and heart disease and all kinds of evil things. I need to do some more experimentation, but if meat really helps, I'm going to have to start eating it.
