I think I need a stronger contact lens. 1800Contacts who lets me order off of my perscription long after it expires, won't let me order the next stronger version of my lens. Those poop heads. I guess I'll wait until I run out of these and then go get a new perscription. I am not going back to the place where I got these. I'm thinking Sears Optical this time or Costco.

I took a good look at my monthly bills last night as I was paying them for this month. For some reason, it dawned on me that if I paid them with Discover, I could get cash back. Duh. Only the Sprint bill and the cable bill allow this. The electric company has luddite billing operations and Qwest offers automatic deductions from checking but not from credit cards. I already have my checking account set up to automagically pay the mortgage and the home owners dues - they are static amounts. I think I'll leave Qwest and the electric bill for now.

We are having a big terrorist disaster drill here in Seattle tomorrow... well, starting tomorrow. And it starts about a mile south of here.

Next weekend they are going to close my interstate ramp. About two blocks from here there is this handy ramp that leads to a north/south interstate highway and another one that goes east (west is the water). They are killing it. Easy access is no longer mine. Sigh. They are building a new one - it won't be as good or as handy and it won't be open until October. The fuckchops. But, you gotta love that they have their own website.

Today I need to gather up all the good LJ comments about NYC and send them to my friend, Mike. Otherwise, just the usual... baseball game, Tivo backlog, get ready for Monday.

You're a bit old for LJ, don't you think?

[waning-estrogen.livejournal.com]

wow. I didn't know of any age restrictions.
you're as old as you feel, I guess, anonymous person.

[melodysk.livejournal.com]

Old enough to know that anonymous posters have things to hide ;)

I love huskies and malemutes.


Nice jaunty tail. :)

what's really sad ...

[henare.livejournal.com]

... is that this gutless wonder will probably never see all these other "too old for livejournal" people.

[neoking.livejournal.com]

How can a person be too old for LJ?! LMAO
Didn't feel like standing behind your opinion either, I see--
Since you seem to know so much about LiveJournal I'll bet you do have an account ;)

We've been paying as many bills as possible on automatic payment through the credit card to rack up them frequent flyer miles. Of course, we have cut up every unused card, monitor the bills every month scrupulously, and have no credit card debt. Credit card debt is dangerous and we don't want it, but the points are nice. Just pay the whole bill all the time.

Ohhh excellent point! I should have mentioned that I never carry a balance. In fact...

My credit union has this aggregate function. I can log on there, click a button and get the totals for my three credit cards (Discover, Visa and AmEx). Every Friday, I do this and then transfer the funds so that each is paid off every week. It's anal and crafty accounting for profit would have me keep the money in a money market and float the balance until it is due, but that makes me crazy. This method keeps me safe and sane.

OMG!!! I am way too old for LJ. I must find something else to occupy myself. Who names a kid anonymous anyway?

[jawnbc]

Aren't you a little fabulous for LJ?

:)

If you are too old for lj, what about me? More's the question, if you ask stupid questions like that, that person must be a mere child and therefore has no right to be here.
