Lately, my passwords have been self-affirmations, to remind myself things like I deserve to be happy every time I unlock my computer.
That IS a great idea. And you do deserve it.
Work day: be over, please.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I change our work access main password very often. Usually my objective is to amuse the staff. It is always some phrase that utilizes numbers and punctuation. If they don't amuse others they at least amuse me.
I haven't seen squirrels around here, which is odd, except that we have a couple feral cats still, and they may be keeping the squirrels away/under control.
I'm embarrassed to admit that I have a Dove chocolate wrapper taped to my monitor, but it says "Think of something that makes you smile," which is a great thing for me to remember.
Years ago I stuck a magnet to the back of a Snapple lid that said "Many a wrong step is taken by standing still." I still have it on my fridge. It was timely advice!
We don't have squirrels in my neighborhood. Maybe because we don't have a lot of trees? The area wants to be a marsh more than it wants to be a forest.
I think I have a mouse in my house.
My grandmother was able to grow big beds of irises without any interference from the squirrels. (We couldn't get a single tomato to ripen before they made off with it, though.)
My work password had to be updated every six months. It had to have a non-alphanumerical character (!@# etc.) as well as at least one capitalized letter and one number. I just went up the keyboard changing the !@# etc. When I was fired I was on my third round.
Timelies all!
I'm so sorry, Lee.
My general password standard is to pick a word (say, paragraph), and then replace all the as with 6, . or *s, if punctuation is required and if both are required I get something like p2$2f$2ph, and that password will continue to be all paragraph related, just swapping out the replacement characters, and maybe the timekeeping password will be a similar set of variants on eternity,
I am a crazy obsessive person. I missed a call from the doctor's office with my cholesterol test results because Caller ID just said "Incoming call" (if there's no actual phone number/name, I let it go to voice mail, especially after 5:00). And who expects their doctor's office to call after 5:00? So I can call tomorrow to get the results.
But because I am crazy and obsessive, I've decided that "I would like to discuss your results with you" means either (1) Oh my god your cholesterol has gone up to 500 and your heart is going to explode right now, OR (2) Your cholesterol went down to 160 and we would like to give you a gold star for eating all that oatmeal.
I just can't decide which.
t edit It's probably more like "Hey, your cholesterol went down/up by 2 points. Way to maintain."
