.. sign up for a credit monitoring service.
I've received my free annual credit report the middle of this summer and I've requested my pay off amount. (I've been checking the mail Every. Single. Day.)
And so I'm ready. I'm curious as to what my scores are, but I'm afraid to sign up with a credit monitoring service. I don't know why.
Maybe it's because I'm nervous about credit. I have a great job. And I finally have enough experience to know that I'll be able to find a job when I need to ... hopefully.
See.. when I bought my car in August '01, one month TO THE DAY of taking delivery, I was laid off. The next couple of years were tough. Then things started to look up and I purchased some furniture. Then.. well, I'm here now. However, my life has been steadily improving.
My boyfriend says that if I want to eventually buy a house I need to start to rebuilt my credit. But I'm scared. With my luck, when I do get credit, things seem to turn south.
I'm a lot more confident right now in life and finances, but still...I sometimes wonder if it is The Spirit Of The Universe trying to tell me something about credit. 
At anyrate... I suppose I'll take the plunge and sign up at a credit monitoring agency...I'm just not sure which one I can trust. I've been thinking about doing this for 2 weeks already.
Sometimes I wish I were a kid again. There was someone bigger than me watching out for me and telling me what to do. Being adult can be ... a rough road sometimes.
