One of my favorite bloggers GoCurryCracker has a wonderful article on Exposure Therapy. He basically gives advice that is contrary to a lot of other finance bloggers who say ignore the stock market completely (which I would argue is a little impossible in our tech heavy, media heavy world). GoCurryCracker suggests that yes we should ignore it as in not change our plans based on it, but that we should also pay attention when it drops so we can see how we feel ‘losing’ money.Exposure Therapy

It was -13 degrees and understandably I was freezing. There was snow covering the hills of upstate New York. It was time to say goodbye to my partner’s family for the Christmas season and head home in the most indirect way possible 🙂 . 
Sooo I might be solar powered. Or Superman 🙂 . My mood is unusually (I think) effected by the weather. When it’s cold, dark and cloudy it’s harder for me to do just about anything. It also takes me to a dark place in my mind. I thought this was because of my hormones or some outside factor, but today proved me wrong. Yesterday was another dark and gloomy winter day (we’ve had an unusually cold and dark winter in Seattle this year) and I was feeling down. I tried to contemplate why and came up with a lot of possibilities – none of which was the weather. 
I don’t understand people.
Well that happened. Apparently I now have a 800 credit score according to Equifax (not that I trust them at all – so many breaches. Goodness people). Nevertheless it’s fun to see and hilarious since I’m such a credit card churner. An 800 credit score with an average credit card age of less than 2 years 🙂 . It’s possible. To 850!
