A Safer World for Your Children.

They say that when you try to multi-task you can do lots of things... but you do none of them well. I am going to say that this is fact. Gospel, almost. I thought about this as I almost caused a 4 car pile-up yesterday. What happened, you might ask? I was reaching for a french fry. Then I realized that about 90% of my near-death experiences in a car* have involved me reaching for french fries. So, from now on,** I vow to not eat while I drive. I'm doing my part to make the world a safer place!



*according to statistics that I made up for this post.

**or at least until the next time I find myself hungry while driving.

Good Grief!

So this morning I was actually pretty on-time while getting ready for work. I got dressed, made myself breakfast (don't get too excited, just an Oatmeal to Go and water!) and headed to the car. I sat down and hear a puff sound. I looked at my car seat thinking that I ripped something. Oh no, it wasn't the car seat... it was my pants! A giant hole in the most inappropriate of places! Do I have another pair of khakis? No, I don't. So I put on a pair of leggings and hurried out the door. Am I going to buy another pair of khakis for my last 3 days of work? No, I'm not. Thank goodness for leggings!

I am So Sorry… that there are Consequences for my Actions!

It absolutely blows my mind when people are shocked that bad consequences can result from their actions. Remember when Kelly Ann from Real World Sydney was surprised to find out that she might be pregnant? When Khloe Kardashian could not believe that she had to spend the night in jail for her DUI?

One of my friends a few weeks ago decided that vandalism would be the best retaliation for his car getting towed. For the sake of this story, we’ll call him “Chase.” So the other day my roommates and I got home to find a note taped to our door offering a $100 reward for information regarding said vandalism. We joked around telling him that we were going to turn him in. Turns out that someone actually did turn him in! Then he texted each person in my apartment and asked if we ratted him out. Pscha… they were only offering $100! Not even worth it. So he now has to pay a $500 fine. Instead of being mad at himself for his stupid action, he’s mad at the person who told! I got another text that said, “I’m posting a $50 reward for any information leading to the nark who turned me in.” Really?
