I was under the impression that neon yellow snot was the sign of a infection, no?

Yeah I probably should get health insurance and actually go to get a physical. I have been with out health insurance since for the last 3.5 years.

So far I have just been doing the zicam stuff, cough syrup and pusedophed.

I've got a very sore foot (severely pulled a muscle, so bad that it's so tight it sticks out of the bottom of my foot). It hurts a lot and as a bonus on Sunday I was stepped on by a panicking broodmare who refused to get off my foot :lol: Yesterday I was limping across the crosswalk in a parking lot and had a lady give me the finger and swear at me because I was limping too slowly for her.

Gotta love people :ROFL2:

Today I felt frustration, dread, more horrific dread, frustration, stupidity and relief all in the space of 30 minutes.

This morning I came to the computer and before my husband left for work he had left his email open..so I look..he left it on a page that said "your payment to netflix as been authorized"

I do not have a phone at home..so I text my husband's phone with the computer and ask him about it..he says he did not order netflix and that he would fix it later..

But, me I go into a panic! I just knew someone had stolen our info.....two days before my computer crashed and as I was fixing it there was about 5 minutes were we did not have any internet security for viruses and such..

Then I decided to look through the rest of his email..a new email came in saying "your utility bill has been paid with card #..."..And then another email came in saying "Here is your request for a password change to access your chase accounts"

Holy Crap, someone is using our info...I thought why would id thieves let conformation emails come to our email...but my husband has had is email address for years and used it for everything...so anything is possible..

So, I am texting the heck out of poor husband...and I just know our bank accounts are empty..

Then my husband finally tells me(after he has called the bank).."oh yeah I paid a utility bill today...and oh yeah I did request a password change".."I forgot about that"...

Never been so relieved in my life...the netflix thing should not have happened..but it could be a fluke of some sort since we were customers years ago..We are still changing our cards..

That was so scary..If it had been real...they could have cleaned us out within hours...it was terrifying...and there is nothing you can do..because by the time you call 15 people to help you..everything could be gone

I am shredding everything from now on and only using paypal...

Bought more golden snails hoping that they feel the motion of the mini ocean (ha ha ha ha).... Ok, so it's more like a freshwater pond.
Argued with my sister over trivial shhhtuff she should just grow up and get over.
Hoping that work doesn't need her today, so she can run down to see her grandmother (in the hospital, thought she was having a heart attack -2nd round of chest pains in 2 weeks-.. But good news, no heart attack - just adjusting meds to help her out.)

Today is water change day here too :lol: Tonight we're doing a birthday dinner for the SO. It's so hot here and the apartment is boiling. Need AC. Also turned down the water temperatures on all the tanks to help with the heat. We'll hopefully get them all down to about 76F.

Today I played this Iphone scrabble game it's pretty cool but it makes me mad because I do words like "haunted" and they do "jo" and get more points?
I hate it.. I didnt even know Jo was a word.. and Ax and Ea .. :?
Haha, I also bought a silver blind because I'm sick of getting boiled through the window at 7 in the morning but nobody will help put it up =[

although disturbing ... I wouldn't worry about it. Many OS commerce sites have an exploitable flaw, that allows spam mail. If you get charged, you can reverse the charge.
