p.s.

I forgot to mention it- but I have the cutest nephews and niece ever.

"doctor doctor won't you please prescribe me somethin- a day in the life of someone else- 'cause I'm a hazard to myself..."

So today I was driving along and I stopped behind a ginormous SUV to turn left at a light. He had inched out into the intersection, and as the light turned from yellow to red, I was expecting him to gun it and make the turn. Instead, he decided to back up...right into me. He was so huge and I was so small all I could see were his taillights coming right at me. I couldn't go anywhere because there was a car behind me, so he just plowed into me. I was pretty nervous because when he stopped I felt the car rock like I was stuck on his hitch...yeah, we decided to pull off the intersection and when he pulled forward it rocked the whole car. Pretty sure the hitch had latched on, and it tore right through the fiberglass. whoops....the light is all wonky now and the hood is all bent and doesn't close right, and I kinda missed class because it took forever- but the guy was very nice and hopefully it'll all get taken care of quickly.


In unrelated news- I have never seen such beautiful colors outside ever! It is gorgeous out there! I mean, I can't stop pointing it out to whoever will listen. I've never seen such stark intense colors before. It's like the world has turned neon. I love it. I need to go take some pictures. Also, I want to jump in a leaf pile. I've always seen pictures of people doing that and it looks so fun. Also, hurray for it being a shorts and tshirt day outside again!

Tonight my ward is going to a corn maze for FHE...yes mom, I am going to FHE.

Oh, and today I got a 25/25 for creativity in my photography class on our last picture assignment! Which is super hard and he told us he never ever gives those cause he's seen everything. I am just amazing, what?

I always wonder how men could ever be gay, men are so much uglier and grosser than women. but then I see some of the crazy, annoying women on reality tv- if that was the only type of women i knew...well...I still wouldn't be gay, but I sure wouldn't like women much.

I have another new adorable nephew! Little Carly has a new baby brother who she calls "Izeek." It's the cutest thing you've ever heard.

What did they take?! I wanna know...or I want a new car!

Two days ago my lock on my passenger side door broke. It just wont lock anymore no matter what I do. I'm a big fan of locking doors, so I was pretty upset but didn't really have time to take my door apart and try to fix it. I figured I'd get around to it later.

So yesterday I was hanging out, watching a movie, and I decided I should go home and get some work done. So I walk out to my car, unlock my door, sit down, swing my laptop bag over to my passenger seat when....wait a minute. What's this? Oh, ALL the contents of my center console and glove box strewn about the other half of the car! Boo. My car got broken into a few years ago and they broke my window and stole my stereo and the like, so I was feeling a little grateful that my window was still intact. I got out of my car and walked around to the other side to have a look-see at what was missing.

Inner dialogue:

3:01: Huh. Stereo is still there. Which is....weird. It wouldn't have been THAT hard to take. I wonder...
3:02: okay...Oxycontin still there...I remember the doctor asking me if I had any intention of selling it because it goes for some good cash. Huh. I forgot I even still had that. I wonder what else was here that..
3:03: What the world?! I forgot I even owned these CDs! I thought I brought all my cds in the house the other day. Where did these even come from?!
3:05: Okay, this is just getting weird. Guitar is still in the trunk. Camera still in the seat.
3:07: I know I don't have very many valuable things in here, but...nothing?! Hey, they took out all the papers that were between the seats and looked through them. Oh nuts, those are my taxes. But they're still here...
3:10: What did they TAKE?!?!
3:11: Okay, somebody was totally just looking for something. This doesn't make any sense! Man, this is totally just going to screw with me now. I'm always gonna wonder- hey! This is like that skit from Dane Cook! Ha ha ha. I always thought that was funny, but now...
3:12: okay, it's still funny. But really. What the world?! Okay, I guess I'll just clean it all up and go home. Wait a minute...my title is missing...
3:17: What the blazes is THAT?! I have a change drawer next to my steering wheel?! Oh man! That's so awesome! I've always said that's the one thing this car needed! Who knew? Thank you strange non-burglar...but...
3:18: what the heck is this wire? Huh...looks like some sort of alarm button. That guy I bought Sebastian from DID tell me it had an alarm at one point but he disconnected it. Okay, so they tried to disconnect my alarm but didn't take anything? What a weirdo. Guess I'll just drive home.


So I start driving, and suddenly my car smells strongly of nail polish remover. I stop in the middle of the road and then I hear a clicking noise like my blinker, but my blinker isn't on...and then suddenly beep-beep-beep-beep really loud and fast honking and a "AGH!" scream from me as I turn my car off and scream "It's gonna explode!!! Someone is trying to kill me!" And then it started. A constant loud steady honking car alarm as I turned my car back on and slowly drove down the street.

3:25: Oh great. Now everyone is going to think I'm stealing my own car and that guy is gonna show up with my title and say it's his car!

pull over into church parking lot

3:28: shut-up-shut-up-shut-up horn! Oh my gosh I'm so embarrassed. People are staring. Make it stoooooop!

Yeah, so an hour or so and one unhelpful cop later when my car engine wouldn't turn on anymore due to alarm safety precautions, we pushed my car back down the street and called the bogus number of the alarm I apparently now have in my car and Logan worked on it forever until he pinned down the deafening horn and disconnected the alarm. The best part was talking to the cop.

me: well, the battery is disconnected now because the alarm wont turn off. But this car has never had an alarm. It didn't work when I bought it. It's never worked. So...I don't know what to do.
cop: Huh. Okay. Well that sounds like a wiring problem. Probably not related to the break in.
me: uh huh. okay then.
cop: okay, so do you have any other questions?
me: nope.
cop: okay, well yeah sometimes the alarm might get set off afterward. Has that ever happened?
me: uh, no. I never HAD an alarm on this car. It was disconnected when I bought it.
cop: oh, okay. So any other questions?
me: nope.
cop: okay, well yeah that's probably just a wiring problem. I don't know. My toyota has done that before.
me: okay.
cop: okay, but you can't leave your car in this lot cause it will get towed.
me: okay.

*ten minutes later*

me: um, so now my engine wont start cause of the alarm.
cop: oh. yeah, sometimes that happens.
me: um, ok.
cop: yeah, that happens in my toyota. I don't know about hondas, but my toyota does that. You just have to let the alarm run through for a minute and then it will turn on again. At least in my toyota.
me: oh..uh..okay.
cop: have you ever let it do that before? let the alarm run through?

are you kidding me?

me: uh no. I have never HAD an alarm on this car. it has never WORKED.
cop: oh okay. well yeah sometimes it takes a minute.
me: yeah, it's been longer than a minute and it's not stopping.
cop: well yeah I don't really know. I mean, if your alarm is really touchy...
me: ::deep breath:: I don't know. It's never worked.
cop: oh. well you could tow it to the dealership and they could look at it. I just know with the toyota you have to push the button on the fob for the alarm and then-
me: yeah, I don't have a fob. I've never had an alarm.
cop: oh, okay.

*sigh*

So we took apart my doors but the passenger door is still not locking. We finally gave up when it was too dark to see and freezing outside and now my door panel is just sitting on my passenger seat. Oh, and then when I drove home the door flew open on it's own. That was a little nerve wracking. But at least yesterday wasn't dull. Oh! And I have a change compartment in my car I never knew about! So that's awesome. I feel strangely violated though....and what did they take?!

"Oh, I feel like laughing! All because of you..."

I am an entertainment stalker. I guess I've always been a bit of a snooper, a tad nosy at times. I just like to know what people are thinking and feeling. I like people watching more than anyone I know. I get caught up in other people's interesting conversations and get caught staring at people more than anyone ever should. But I can't help it! I don't mean to pry...I'm just interested. Entertained.

 Mostly with funny people, I guess. I think the world needs more laughter and I love it when I find someone who makes me laugh. Sometimes I stumble upon blogs like that, and read for hours and laugh at some stranger's musings. I am secretly following lots of blogs of people I find funny and they have no idea. Is that so wrong?
