When I first signed up for Facebook you had to either be 18 to use it, or list your highschool. They didn't have homeschooled as an option, so I just said that I was 18 and hid my birth year on my info section.
Facebook finally added a homeschool option, so I requested they change my birth year to 1993. They did so, but they messed up my actual birth date in the process. I noticed that my birthday said July 7th, 1993. That is not my birthday! Thanks, Facebook. That's brilliant.
Now it's been another few weeks since I requested they set it back to July 31st and they still haven't fixed it. I found a survey in my email from the original change request; it was asking questions about how timely the service was, if they had resolved my problem, etc. I told them that they took too long, got it wrong, and they're taking too long to fix it.
This is so annoying! If I was over 18 it would let me change my birthday back to July 31st, but since it's now at least to the correct year, I can't change the day. But really, that's silly. It's not like 18 year olds have randomly changing birthdays. Weird.
I hope they fix it soon.

Cacoethes Scribendi?
So, I decided I should start this blog so that I can keep my family updated on what's going on. Facebook isn't a good way to keep everyone up-to-date. I don't post enough to give anyone any idea of what's going on, so come here to get updates!
I'm sure you're all wondering what the name of my blog means, so I'll go ahead and tell you.
Cacoethes Scribendi is Latin for "an insatiable urge to write. "
I am not very good at thinking up names for things like this, so I decided to read through some Latin quotes and find a good one. I rather liked this one (probably because I like writing), and so it won! I realize that if you want to visit my blog you may have trouble remembering "www.cacoethesscribendi.blogspot.com" when you go to type it in you address bar (even I'll have trouble remembering it! Luckily I just have to go to blogspot and sign in using my email address), so I came up with another humorous address- www.thisblogiseasytoremember.blogspot.com
I hope it's a little bit easier for you to remember!
