I used to have a blog for class. I deleted it because something happened to a friend of mine in the same profession. It made me think that having a blog was a bad idea. I've since changed my mind and decided that this is really a good way to release some steam and to keep friends up to date on what's happening in my life.
Some news for those who would like to know. Several weeks ago, a runaway van hit my car. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but my car had a huge dent and needed to be fixed. We did all the paperwork and R, husband, took it in last week. They gave us a rental to use. A HUGE Chevy truck. I was NOT HAPPY. I drive a Rendevous which is like driving a minivan, but cuter. Anyway, on our way to pick up my car, we needed to stop by the bank. I pulled through the drive through, did my business and started to pull through. This is only after M, my sweet baby girl, got her sucker. Unbeknownst to me, this massive truck is TOO WIDE FOR THE DRIVE THROUGH. I managed to scrape the entire passenger's side with the wonderful yellow poles. Yes, that's poles. We originally didn't have to pay a penny for any of the fixing or rental, but now we're out our deductable because of the HUGE, FREAKIN TRUCK. I hate rental companies. Why would they give us a truck? Did they not see the carseat and other toys in the car? I am so frustrated and embarrassed that this happened. The good news is that R is not mad at me, I think, and we are all OK. I swear I didn't even turn the wheel. Shouldn't they have a warning sign at the drive through about big trucks? Oh, and this all happened on Friday, the 13th.
Now today, I can't call R and he can't call me on our cell phones. We have Sprint, but for some reason when I called him, Centennial Wireless came on and said the number was busy. What is that all about? I couldn't even call Sprint to find out what was up forever. When I did get through, she didn't know either. She claims that I need to dial the area code, which, we've never had to do in the three years we've had their service. Why did the all of a sudden go to heck in a handbasket? They still won't ring when we call each other. It just goes to voicemail. I think she's new.
Ta, ta for now.
Take care,
CDR

Holy cow! I had no idea that there were regular trucks that were too wide for a drive-thru! And the cell phone thing--when a friend of mine had Sprint, he couldn't call my phone at all. I could call him, but when he called me he got a recording about the number being out of service. Crazy cell phones.
That's too bad about your friend who had problems with her blog... I have a feeling she is much more careful about staying anonymous now. ;-)
