Man, I love how my credit scores can vary 50+ points based just on my last AmEx statement balance.

Spend more and it dropped 50 points? Nah, other way around. We're house hunting and once I realized just how much my statements were affecting my score, I started paying off most of the balance before the statement date hit. I think it's dumb that the FICO scoring system doesn't differentiate between carried balances and new ones. Anyways, one of my scores went from 720 to 770.

It's fine to use them, just pay them off before the statement hits.

Holy freakin' god. My mother invited people to my wedding behind my back. Not only did she not ask, she hasn't even told me yet. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and predict that she invited 3-4 families without informing me.

No, that's just tacky, especially considering we still have extra space with our wedding package. I'll say no if she invited anyone particularly detestable, but I'm not going to insult perfectly decent folks just because my mother is a manipulative harpy.

Things I MUST remember as a dog:
1. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff. 2. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I’m lying under the coffee table. 3. I will not roll my toys behind the fridge, behind the sofa or under the bed. 4. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house. 5. I will not eat the cats’ food, before they eat it or after they throw it up. 6. I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean carpet in the house when I am about to get sick. 7. I will not throw up in the car. 8. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell. 9. “Kitty box crunchies,” although they are tasty, are not food. 10. I will not eat any more Kleenex or napkins and then redeposit them in the backyard after processing. 11. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar. 12. I will not chew my human’s toothbrush and not tell them. 13. I will not chew crayons or pens, especially not the red ones, or my people will think I am hemorrhaging. 14. When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it’s raining outside. 15. We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV. 16. I will not steal my mom’s underwear and dance all over the backyard with it. 17. The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are mom and dad’s laps. 18. My head does not belong in the refrigerator. 19. I will not bite the officer’s hand when he reaches in for mom’s driver’s license and car registration. 20. I will not play tug-of-war with dad’s underwear when he’s on the toilet. 21. I will not eat mint flavored dental floss out of the bathroom garbage to avoid having a string hanging out of my butt. 22. I will not use “roll around in the dirt” as an option after just getting a bath. 23. Sticking my nose into someone’s crotch is not an acceptable way of saying hello. 24. I will not hump on any person’s leg just because I thought it was the right thing to do. 25. I will not fart in my owners face while sleeping on the pillow next to their head. 26. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet. 27. The toilet bowl is not a never ending water supply &, just because the water is blue, it doesn’t mean it is cleaner. 28. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when company is over. 29. Suddenly turning around and smelling my butt can quickly clear a room. 30. The cat is not a squeaky toy so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it’s usually not a good thing.
