This really doesn’t have much to do with my mood, but I thought it was too long to post in the Status Updates thread:
Today my sister came over in the morning to plan her wedding. She and her boyfriend got engaged just last week when we were in Disney World. I woke up and read while she and my mother discussed various things. They eventually finished up, and we decided to go out for lunch. I suddenly had a craving for a toasted and cheesy sandwich, so I suggested we go to Friendly’s. We headed out and then all of a sudden my father called to see how planning was going. Since the nearest Friendly’s is in the town of the Air Force base he works on, he decided to meet us for lunch. It was very exciting to get to go out to lunch as a family! Lunch was really tasty (I had a honey barbeque chicken super melt and a mint chocolate chip sundae) and I was in good spirits.
My mom and I then headed out with my sister. We went to drop her off at her apartment and then she invited us in to see the wedding invitation she designed. The invitation was beautiful! My mom and I then went to the car to leave. Unfortunately, my mom’s car wouldn’t start. She drives a push button start car, and the engine just didn’t want to turn on. So, we went back to my sister’s apartment to try and give the car a chance to rest. She was about to start exercising on her Wii Fit, so my mother and I just sat on her very comfortable couch to watch. Soon though, my mom and I both fell fast asleep.
I think when my sister finished her workout she woke us up, but I’m not really sure. Anywho, my mom and once again tried to leave, but the car still wouldn’t start. We sat there for 15 minutes trying various things and reading various manuals, but the engine did not want to give in. So my mom called AAA and I headed back to my sister’s apartment. She was about to go into the shower, and I think I scared her when I knocked on the door. My mom came in after talking to AAA and the Nisaan dealership, and so I played the New Super Mario Bros Wii. It was the first time all summer I played videogames. My sister still doesn’t have a broadcast recieving television, so I there was nothing to watch and I had to pass the time somehow. The game was fun though.
We ended up spending about three hours unintentionally at her place. The tow truck came to bring the car to the dealership, and then my mom and I were going to walk home (we live fairly close). My sister was making dinner by that time and was also expecting a guest to arrive, so she couldn’t drive us home. However, just as we were about to leave her fiance came home from work and took as home.
So that was my day. It wasn’t very exciting, but I just really wanted to share it with all of you. If you took the time to read it, thanks.
JSWC: Thank God you and your company were not injured in the car accident. I hope there was no trouble with the other driver, as far as exchanging information and insurrance goes.
Czarine: What is a Wacom Cintig tablet? Sounds exciting!
