Problem: To say yes to dates ( within reason * ) , to go out more often , to chat people up ( even to approach people ) . The whole point of this I guess is to use my own to change my life . One date at a time .

Why is the narrator going on so many dates ?

A: The narrator is looking for the right partner .

Problem: When we considered fixed rate mortgages we also looked into even longer term loans that spanned 30 years as well . Still , having a mortgage close to retirement was not what we were looking for , so we decided to try for a loan with a 15 year fixed mortgage . We felt that there was a great deal of emphasis on paying the mortgage off early . After taking everything into consideration we decided on a 30 year loan instead .

Why am I scared of the 30 years mortage ?

A: I do n't want to retire with a loan .

Problem: Only about 10 people in the entire office of a usual 200 . Both bosses are off . Hopefully Boardwalk comes and replaces my fridge today . That would be swell . Had a really wicked weekend with Mark too ( despite feeling like I was never going to wake up again ) .

Why does the narrator feel more laid back at work ?

A:
Less people there .
