Today I stopped by the grocery store after work and picked up some fruit and and an Amy's meal. It's gotten cold here (today!) and so I wanted something warm and easy. 
Spent $9.98 and didn't pick up any sweets, etc.
When I was checking out, the cashier said, "Hi neighbor!" I had to do a double take - and realized that he was a neighbor I met a couple weeks ago in the laundry room. He and his gf live in the apartment above me.

Something kind of strange at work today ... about 4pm my boss calls me to her office. She tells me to go ahead and log off the phone at 4:15 and head out without saying anything to anyone or turning lights off, etc.
There was someone in the office with her, otherwise I would have asked what prompted this.
Instead I just said, Ok ... thank you!
I sure don't mind getting off work 15 minutes early.

NE called me this evening to tell me he finally sold his car! It's been sitting on Craigslist for 6+ weeks with progressively lower price. It sold for $300. He's just glad to be done with it. (A 2001 Subuaru Imprezza?? with lots wrong with it.)
Another piece of surprising news - we checked his credit reports last night and paid for one credit score. The number was MUCH higher than either of us expected.
We talked about him getting a Paypal credit card to add a revolving account (he's got lots of installment accounts - i.e. student loans) to improve it even more.
I'm now very curious about how our two credit scores would merge together for when we're house hunting next year. Do they just average the two scores?

I'm leading the SS discussion tomorrow. WAY WAY WAY out of my comfort zone. The only reason I said yes was because the person who usually does the first Sabbath discussion was in a major car accident a few weeks ago (is out of ICU now, but still in hospital - will be going to rehab next week possibly.)
It's about Jeremiah and the different symbols / symbolisim used in the Bible - such as the clay and the potter. It's a topic I really enjoy, but the breadth of what one weeks lesson covers ... Ugh. I much prefered the SS lessons for the early primary age kids - simple story, simple activities connected to it, a couple of songs.
Am hoping for a SMALL group.
First Spend of November, Strangeness, Good news for NE

Alice - Teaching adults is WAY different than kids. In front of kids I have no issues, in front of adults ... stammer .. stutter ... freeze
CCF - Really? Then it doesn't matter what NEs score is as long as mine is in the excellent category? I guess I had heard/read somewhere that when you're married your credit scores affect each other somehow.

Granted, this article is 5 years old, but I think it's a good place to start.
