Well from thinking that today was going to be a bad, it actually turned out to be alright! :) I woke up this morning to find about 6 inches or so of snow covering the ground, which meant I wasn't entirely sure how i was going to get work, but i knew i had to at least try. I got up, got ready, and then headed outside to dig my way out of a snowball encompassing my car! I dug and scraped, and finally broke free, and was thankful that there wasn't a sheet of ice underneath all the snow. So once i freed my car, i had brave the white outside and drive to work. I got about as far as the front of my neighborhood when i lost control of my car, and it was everything to stay on the road and not swerve off. It was at this point, that my better reasoning told me i needed to go back home and figure out another option to going to work. well i attempted to call out, but that failed b/c nobody picked up the phone at work. So i was left with one other option of having my dad take me to work. I finally arrived some 45 minutes after what was supposed to be, but safe, which i guess is the important thing here. when i showed up i worked all day building and destroying the denim wall, which was a lot of hard work! my hard work payed off though, when kim later bought us gift cards from starbucks for having come in the treacherous conditions to work and help out with floor set. I was glad that she was cool about it was nice to know she didn't really want to be there anymore than we did. haha. we later found out that we had the option of staying open or closing, and we opted to stay, so that we could get through floorset, but only saw about 9 customers in about 3 hours! I guess most people wanted to do the safe thing and stay inside and curl up by the fire....which i don't blame them for! :) anyways, some 5 and half hours later, i finally got out of work and headed home with the parentals. i then texted nathan, and told him i hoped he was having a good day, and drove safe if he had to go to work. he thought it'd be really funny to tell me he got in a car crash and his leg was all banged up and he was in the hospital. well me being the skeptic, at first thought he was kidding, and then i was like OMG i think he's serious. and when i told my mom, we in the process of figuring out where he would be to go and visit (yea...i was gonna go to a hospital..and I HATE hospitals...), when he told me he was only kidding.....grrr, boys are so dumb sometimes, but i was definitely glad to know that he was okay! :-)
so after that, i haven't really done a whole lot of anything..just played bubble shooter for awhile and now decided to blog..but otherwise my day is going well...i'm crossing my fingers hoping that i might possibly get the day off tomorrow (doubtful), as well as hoping this weather gets better enough to drive in so i can go see nathan on wednesday! I am looking forward to spending time with him, i miss him, and this weather sucks!
I guess only time will tell. for now i will sit here and watch the crazy kids as they have tied themselves to the back of their pickup trucks with water ski ropes and are sledding around the neighborhood, it's so funny to watch! :) I think one of the kids had to improvise and is being pulled around in a mop bucket as opposed to a sled.
Well i just wrote a novel! ...oops.

April fools last year, Eric told Stephen that I was in the hospital b/c I got in a car crash, and he also told me that Stephen was in the hospital b/c he got in a car crash. We both called each other at the same time to make sure everything was alright. It was really mean of Eric though. I wont trust him this year!
ReplyDeleteOH i remember that!! you were telling me that, and mine to mom was that i wasn't going to graduate..which she didn't like so well...so mental note...prolly not the best april fools joke this year...unless you think you can pull it off..which would be kind of funny.. :)
