103. You are so glad you have a same-sex spouse and your opposite-sex parent has a foreign name.

Indeed! I find myself jealous of not only those with live parents and many children, but those with same sex SOs and relatives with foreign sounding names. We struck out on both counts, but I guess a happy marriage of almost 40 years counts for something
.105. Whereas your financial goals once included closing and streamlining the multiple accounts you had, now you strive to open as many as you can get away with!

106. You tell all the CSR's "points for a trip to Hawaii" when asked why you buy all these MO's.
Now all the CSR's are fighting over who gets to be the nanny on the Hawaii trip.

I'm over that though. However, I am slowly distancing myself away. Just like to keep an eye out in case something new comes up. You know the deal

114. Friends know at any given time, you are either at WM, Target, at home reading about how to get around a problem at WM/Target, or on the other side of the world reaping the benefits of putting up with WM/Target.

118. Those moments when you try to remember which state/country/continent you are in. You are pretty sure about the planet though.

if that ISIS did have a card, it would be the one card I will never get no matter how lucrative.

122. I can tell in the first 1 second of an agent's greeting (or lack thereof) if he/she is going to be helpful. If not, click, wait 3 seconds, redial. The most I had to repeat was 3x in a row. Good job, WF and your bozos.

126. Worst nightmare? Left my Luha F amenity kit (I-pad style) at a grocery store - of cause filled with a lot of GC's and MO's. When I tried to pick it up, store owner had already called the local police.....
That was fun - just stay calm and explain everything slowly at the barracks LOL

Speaking of shredder, I'm thinking to upgrade my 6 sheet one to something like a 12 sheet, so those "join the conversation" letters will be SOA: Shredded On Arrival.
Am I crazy to not have one?

Wow. Did you tell them the truth?
I get way too much mail. I have some generous friends and family, who have helped me out in this hobby by lending me their info. I take extra precautions. I shred anything with a name and address. Those mini shredders are slow. I find myself shredding twice-a-week, so its worth the investment to cut your time.

129. You have a new appreciation for your family**. Without them, you would only have one redbird and one set of credit cards (the horror!).
