Yes, but I don't want to risk accidentally activating it. I googled post-post, and it's legit, but shady/exploitative. Activation fees, use fees. I wouldn't have gone with something like that anyway, but I want to make sure it's not in my credit history. I'm still looking into that.

(Especially confusing was that I volunteered to be a mystery shopper for the Y, and that comes with a $50 visa prepaid, but I didn't think they'd picked their mystery shoppers yet.)

Well, that's extra confusing. Maybe check with the Y before shredding?

Well, the Y said explicitly Visa, so that I think is cleared up. And I'm pretty sure (after thinking about it) I'll get it in a Y envelope (if they pick me) with explicit explanations about what it is.

Ah, that makes sense. Unsolicited credit like things are freaky, indeed.

Okay, I don't think the Excedrin Migraine is working at all tonight. Day two and a half of the migraine. It really sucks that ita and Betsy and others have to go through this so often.

Craaaap. I spontaneously went out, which is a good thing in general, but I think I drank too much... I really need to go to sleep ASAP.

I think the smell center in the brain is closest to the memory center or something to that effect. Makes smells very powerful memories.

Crazy powerful. And often quite unexpected.

I cannot believe this Giants team. But it's a good kind of disbelief.

When I was working with Kevin last year I said, "When the Giants win their first World Series in San Francisco, Tim Lincecum will fire the strikeout into Buster Posey's glove."

But I didn't think we'd have a shot at in Buster's rookie season.

Off to Texas.

Wah. I've missed all of you people; the third un-ending week is still in high gear. I have agreed to make treats for Noah's halloween party. This is what I made: [link] What is wrong with me?

Truly we live in a golden age. I used my debit card in a parking meter. Why haven't I done this before?
