What a great week it's been! We've been having a fabulous time in our new place. We have different friends over almost every night, the drinks never stop flowing, and the neighbors still hate us- but at least now they have a few substantial reasons.
The old lady right next door has a sign outside her door that says, "No unexpected visitors any time of day. Deliveries okay." While some guy friends were helping us move, one of them stopped to read the sign, and said something along the lines of, "That must be a frigid old bitch that lives there," and within seconds, she busts the screen door open and glares at him. Talk about awkward.
Oh yea, remember my idea about the kiddie pool during the summer? The board totally rained on my parade already. We were given an official rule book yesterday, and it actually states that we are not allowed to have any sort of pool. There's gotta be a loophole somewhere. I'll put some serious thought into it later.
So anyways... I finally got my car into the shop on Monday and it won't be ready until roughly the 28th. I miss my car already! Enterprise didn't give me a choice of rentals and put me into a 2005 Dodge Neon. Call me spoiled, but I am not impressed lol. It feels like I'm back in the stoneage... no navigation, no XM radio, no flashy LCD screens, and crappy gas mileage! I hadn't really even thought about how convenient it is to have a hybrid... my ten gallon tank usually lasts around a week and a half. In the Dodge, I go through 1/4 of a tank just going to school and work every day. Oh, and go figure, Enterprise doesn't offer insurance to driver's under 21 years old. Being in the rental makes me so paranoid. The fact that it's white seems to make me more of a moving target than usual. I've decided to never purchase a white or gray car for myself.
Yesterday I was driving down highway 99 and a huge truck pulled out of a business driveway and practically aimed for my car in his quest to make it to the third left lane. He's lucky... if I was in my car, I woulda let him hit me lol. I love insurance money :) .
Last night, Jackie and I both had our mom's over for dinner. The food was fantastic! I never knew Jackie could make such amazing salmon. We also plowed through 3 bottles of wine, a whole box of crackers, and a barrel of cheese between the 4 of us. It was a great night, to say the least.
More adventures to come, but have to work for now.
