Today I called the credit bureau; it's a good idea to check your record from time to time.

First, they haven't picked up my legal name change from months ago...right? Weird.

Second, uh, credit bureaus are only relative to your country of residence, really.

Third, Equifax is an American company, safe guarding the credit interests of Americans.

Fourth, an Indian guy called me "sir". In fact, I'm talking to him while I'm writing to you, and he is having me spell "B A N A N A". He is literally killing me.

That has only happened to me once before, when buying tampons at a drug store late at night. And it was another woman who called me sir.

When I was buying tampons.

Go figure.
