What things are you extra territorial and/or protective about ? Hmm, nothing really. Nothing comes to mind. Oh wait, I am extra protective of those close to me who seem to be in harm's way. Especially elderly or young'ns.


Extra Credit Question:
In honor of "National Grouch Day"

Who is the grouchiest person you have recently had contact with ? Some folks who are holding a grudge after being banned from cdf. Right or wrong, they need to stop hating and realize cdf is just one small part of the universe and move on. The best medicine is to simply be happy and ignore the haters.

What is the last thing that got you all "grouchy" ? Having to give the dog her meds at precisely at 9 PM. I said, ::"Why not 8:45, or 9:03, why does it have to be right at 9?"


Bonus Question:
In honor of "Get Smart about Credit Day"

When was the last time you checked your credit report ? Oh god, I don't even want to go there until I have to buy another car. That is why I am not buying a new car right now. I got 2.9% rate on my last car. So at one time I had excellent credit scores.

Do you know your credit score ? Yes, ballpark.

I haven't had trick or treaters in 15 years in two different states. I have a theory. I've always live on the second floor in two different complexes and I think the kids go from building to building, in the complexes, just hitting the ground floor apartments, especially if they are with their parents. I think they don't want to constantly go up and down the stairs but in an apartment complex with multiple buildings they can still hit a lot of homes just sticking to ground floor apartments.
