HELLO EVERYBODY... man you guys are going to get a kick out of what has happened to me in the past weekend... I got NO sleep, lost a tire, realized mechanics are retarded [no offense any mechanics out there], and broke my shoe... here goes:
[warning... LONG]

Friday - no sleep, well that was my fault, since I went downtown and was up til 515
Saturday- retarded car - go to get my car that we dropped off friday night because of some rattleing. I rode with some guy and pointed out the noise on tuesday. So these guys never called us, so my brother and i go to the mall and stop by... THEY ARE CLOSED. On the webpage they are open til 5, on the door til 2, and somewhere else, til 4.... so we go at 230.. and they're closed. So we get the manager and he gets our car, and informs us that they couldn't find the problem... and they couldn't find hte guy that rode with me on tuesday. I was like, are you f-in kidding me?! I mean, the guy told me what to write down for these dumb people, and they STILL didn't get it. I was aggravated, so my car is STILL screwed up... then that night: I was planing on going to bed early, and getting up for church, so i didnt go out. Besides, i was tired. So i'm cross-stitchinga nd watching tv, around 1130, my roommate [jenn] comes in and is like... i can't breathe... i was like.. um ok. And she goes, and my jaw hurts, i go.. well sit down and drink some water, but she doesnt', and she tries to breathe DEEPER, which she can't do so she flips out. The muscles in the neck tense up, her shoulders hurt [they are attached to the neck and the jaw muscles]... so i was like.. are you ok? she goes yeah, so i wait a bit, and around 1230 i go wash my face and brush my teeth, i'm exhausted. Well 5 min later, she comes and goes, we need to go to the hospital. [GREAT]. So i drive there and we get there at like 1250. I'm there til 445am!!! The waiting room was cold as anything... the doctor was like.. um you could have had an anxiety attack etc etc. I think she was over exagerating [i'd be a terrible doctor, i'd be like.. whatever, you're faking go home..lol] But yeah... that was a nice long night. she's fine- had she listened to me to begin with, it would have been fine.
Sunday- I was coming home from the pool and i'm on my road [thankfully] and i look in my rear-view mirror... and i see a tire bouncing down the road. I was like... umm all 4 of mine work. Then it hit me [a thought, not the tire] it's my SPARE TIRE. So I speed up, turn into my place, hop out of my car[in a bathing suit and a towel] and look under my car... no tire. So i look down the road thinking I gotta run and get it... NOPE, here it comes, bouncing down the stinkin' road. So I'm running in the street, and it turns and i htink it'll stop in the cudzoo by the train track, ... nope, it goes in and turns again to the road and keeps on going. So i have to chase it down. At this time a guy drives up and helps me get my tire and puts it in my car. I mean honestly, had that happened on the highway ... that i drive everyday, i could have caused a major freakin accident. Later that day: I start to play on my computer and decide to put some pictures on line , so i didnt get to bed til 11. I'm laying down, it's kinda hot so my fan is on. Then I realize that i forgot to plug my phone in... right as i plug it in... my buddy Matt calls from maine. He's like i'm in maine, sitting on a lifeguard stand looking out at the lake, it's beautiful, you should come visit.. yadayada. we chat for about 30 min. Then I get off. Then I lay down again, and toss and turn, i turn off my music, turn off my fan, Then my phone rings again at 12 and it's my boyfriend in Missouri and I get off the phone at 1. And then after that, I kept tossin' and turnin'. Still I managed to get up at 515 on monday though.
Monday - I walk into the office, and say good morning to the guard, and promptly lose my shoe. I just stepped out of it. The little metal thing in the buckle, that holds it all together, BROKE. So i end up hobbling down the cooridoor with one shoe [high heeled] on, and one in hand, A salad in my other hand, and a bag over my shoulder, and my company badge in my hand. However, I did somewhat fix it using a hairthing and a paperclip.. haha, don't ask. ... [around 2:15pm] You would have thought that God found everything funny enough... guess not. because walking down the hall, my OTHER shoe breaks!! I was walking back from bringing the security tapes down to the office... and I walked out of the OTHER shoe. Some woman was like, apparently the warranty ran out.. LOL!! True though. What are the odds that they both break in the SAME day. So I'm standing there, with people walking all around, I can't go barefoot because it's work casual... I mean honestly -- so i find a clip, and manage 5 steps before it breaks again and I put the clip back on. At least I'm good at ghetto-fying them... I mean, repairing them!! lol

---------------------
Other than that, I'm great!! I'm going home for the 4th of july, the only chance i get... YAY
