Yeah, agree—I hate when there are a limited number of options and half of them are favorites and half are "favorite" which I'm not good at remembering, and some of the rest are like, wedding anniversary which I don't have? I've also thought if you were an only child who was homeschooled you're SOL, with no options for siblings or school mascot!

Oh yeah, siblings and schools, too! At least I have schools!!!

No one steal my identity, but my favorite answer was one place that asked my favorite animal, and I said Homer. Aw, Homie.

I don't love the question "What was your best vacation?" Because, you know, I haven't stopped vacationing, and maybe some will be even more awesome than the one I used as an answer. Life keeps happening, ya know?

Well, I still don't know what my password is but Chrome had it stored, so guess who has two thumbs and Informed Delivery?

Tacos?

It should be tacos. I have no idea what Past Me was thinking.

Our mail delivery is usually in the morning, but when it hadn't been delivered (including my new plastic rectangle) by 1:00, I decided to just get cash from the ATM and pay for groceries with cash like it was the 1950s. I should have worn my polka-dotted dress and red lipstick to complete the retro feel (but I did not). So I braved the pre-snowpocalypse crowds at Trader Joe's, then I decided I wanted to make chili so I went to the Meijer as well (TJs doesn't have everything I need to make chili). Meijer was oddly sedate for 12 hours before snowmaggeddon hits.

When I got home, the mail had been delivered and I have my new plastic rectangle! I think I updated all the places online that are on autopay (the kitty's plan at Banfield, Hulu, cloud storage with Apple, and Cinemark's movie club). (After 13 years I still can't get Tim to put the utility bills on autopay. It makes him jittery. He pays online, but resists autopay. So the discretionary/entertainment bills are in my name and I totally do autopay.)

This has been your exciting update on my shopping and finances. Stay tuned for this week's installment of "Friday: The Day I Change The Sheets!" (Seriously. Friday really *is* the day I change the sheets, which I'm about to do. WOOOOOO SO EXCITE)

I just have some defaults. Anything pet related is always this one pet. Any sports question I answer with one specific sport. Anything for my work that requires secret questions I answer with this job specific info- boss, company- zip code - I use these answers regardless of the questions.

Our work prompts were crazy to reset are password were very crazy and/or a bit classist. Like what's your library card number? What university didn't you get into? What was your first car?

A) Like I would ever give out my library card number B) What if I didn't go to university?? I mean, I got accepted to every university I applied to, but still. C) I have never owned a car. ETA: D) Who was the 2nd person you kissed?

There were more that I can't remember, but they were all of a similar vein. I ended up making up answers that I can't remember and now I pray I never get locked out of my work login.

Yeah, I have to write those down. I prefer the really specific questions - what street did you live on in 3rd grade and the like. Favorite anything is terrible. Paternal grandfather's middle name would be good if I was sure I could spell it consistently. Since I don't actually use that one I guess it's safe to say it's Nikolaivich that I can never be sure whether I should throw a c or t or maybe a different vowel in there.

I have my new plastic rectangle!

So jelly!

I have spent all morning creating a cipher wheel. This would be more fun if (a) I knew what I was doing; (b) it wasn't under a tight deadline.

That said I am now trying to build a Rebus into my Cipher Wheel (through cutouts on the moving rings). But I am limited to what I can cut out of magazines so right now I've got: Eye Nose Star.

I Star Nose!

No, wait I can find the number 2 and lips and then make Tulips.

"I Star Tulips!"

That star is not helping me.

Ears! I forgot about ears in a rebus.

H + [ear] = Hear.

I Hear Star Tulips

[star] + T = Start

Hmmm....

B + [eye] = Buy

Buy Her Tulips?
