SORRY!

Hey everyone!

With a gentle nudge and reminder from MCH, I'm blogging. :) The past two weeks have been CHAOS! Wrapped in a little stress, frustration, and busy-ness! Why? Well, let's rewind to two weeks ago today....

I was opening at my "real job" (assistant manager for a popular restaurant chain), which entails me being to work by 5 a.m. Yes, CRAAAAZY early! So I was running a little behind schedule and opted to go with the faster route to work. This being the bypass, which, as you shall soon see and hear, was a bad idea. The full moon had been a night or two before, so there was no moon, and on top of that, it was cloudy out anyways (started raining a couple hours later and rained for about 2 and a half straight days). Plus, the bypass is not lit. I came VERY suddenly upon 3-4 deer, hard to tell for sure in the dark, and had the option of hitting them all and probably getting a couple of them through my windshield, or attempting to avoid. I attempted to avoid, lost control, and hit the cement median.


Poor, George Michael... (Yes, he's named after Michael Cera's character on 'Arrested Development'. Completely nerdy, I know. :D)

For the record, Honda's safety features are amazing and I got off with some bumps and bruises despite my 65 mph crash into a cement wall.


My completely intense knee bruise from my steering wheel.

Needless to say, the damage under the hood combined with the fact that almost all my airbags deployed is meaning a totaled vehicle.

The car drama (insurance people are ridiculous!) and the photos and the "real job" and the moving (my roommate bought a house!) have created a less than ideal blogging situation for me. But I have those photos of Jenni I promised AND some great spring time ones. Keep an eye out. :) I will do mass blogging soon...within the next week...PROMISE! And maybe by then I'll have a shiny new car to show you, too! Any ideas for names? ;)
