Sara, why do you have multiple SS cards?
I didn't get a ssn until I was 10? 11? (I remember going to the Soc.Sec Office.) There were 2 punch out cards on the sheet, identical to each other. When I went off to college, I took one, my parents kept the other. When mom sent me my bc, she included the other card. Which is somewhere in this apartment.
Is this not standard? It always seemed weird to me that my parents waited so long to get around to it, and that it wasn't automatically done by the hospital at my birth.
Toy reminds me of an attempt at an elegent version of the monchichi (? the one with the thumb that fit in it's ears and mouth and...) monkey.

Would that have been around 1985 or so? That's when the government started requiring that kids have a social security number in order for parents to claim them as dependents on taxes. I didn't get one until then.
Is gmail stupid or is it me?
I was unable to connect to gmail for a while, but it is fine now.

That must be the reason! I was 10 then. I remember my brother wanting to sign his RIGHT THERE and he had just started writing, so his sig is HUGE. And obviously that of a child.
Oh, that doll is awful. Is it an Anne Geddes thingie? You know the photographer who photographs all the babies in costume (they're usually cute). It seems to me they started putting out Anne Geddes dolls and they were freaktastic.

I didn't get mine until I was going to start my first summer job. This has now been an issue every time I apply for a mortgage or home loan.
I have no earthly idea where my SS card is. I've known the number by heart ever since I applied for college, but the card itself has vanished into the ether.
I got an SS # as a baby, I'm pretty sure, but I'm pretty sure that was unusual then -- I was in some study, and got paid for it. But the actual card I have is from my teen years, not sure why.
I'm watching an old CSI, and Kate Walsh is on as a transexual. Ha.
I first got a SSN when I was about 5. Then I got a new card when I was 16 and getting a summer job, because my parents had lost my old card. Then I got another new card my senior year of college when I was getting a job and I couldn't find my old one. And right now, I'm honestly not sure where that one is.
I had a SSN as an infant, because my parents were super responsible and started a savings account for each child pretty much at birth. I've gone through many cards, because I keep losing them. I think I have one in my wallet, which I know I'm not supposed to.
