Car Grief
So, last week we got hit by a drunk driver who then proceeded to drive off. Pictures to follow.
Essentially the story goes as follows- sorry if it's abridged, it's just so exhausting at this point.
We are driving North on I-5 and boom! Slammed from the back. We pull over and I call the cops while Ryan get's out to inspect the damage and speak with the perp. The guy was incoherrent and had his shirt unbuttoned down to his belly with his tie all loose. He was mumbeling to himself when Ryan says, "Hey, what happened?" the guy just keeps mumbeling, "Um... dude you hit us?" Wine-o's response "Oh No, I'm fine" "No, YOU- HIT- US" At this point it seemed like a loss cause trying to communicating, the guy was clearly out of it. Oh, did I mentioned it was 6:15 on a Monday morning? You thought it was Saturday night? Well of course you did! Why would this dude be out on a Monday morning? Because he is an IDIOT! Back to the story. Ryan came to check on me and see if I was calling the cops. When he turns to go back to talk to the guy the guy is getting in his car and driving off. Ryan starts punching his window, doesn't break it (unfortunately) and scrapes up his hand and gives himself several blood blisters. The state patrol showed up about 20 minutes later.
Oh to be in the mind of the soberly challenged. To know his thoughts, to understand his reasoning- "No, I'm fine to drive! I'm so good that I am going to drive while performing my own sobreity test! One hand on the wheel, one hand on my nose!"
"Look at me! I'm flying! I'm riding this majestic blue unicorn above a sea of lights!"
"Oh no, what's that shiny white thing?!"
"Ah man, my car looks awful! It looks like a T-Rex took a bite out of it! No seriously, look at this, oh my gosh, T-Rex in 2010! How is this possible?! He must have been so hungry, munchin' on a car! Doesn't he know cars are for driving not for eating?! That is so funny!!!"
"Oh who is this guy? What's he saying? Is he a caveman? He sure looks like it with that sloping forehead. He must own the T-Rex"

Thank You Letter
Dear Ambitious Crime Entrepreneur,
Ryan and I wanted to thank you for the hard work you put forth last Friday. We can't tell you what a joy it was to find our passenger side window smashed out. Oh, maybe you don't remember us as you had smashed out 6 other car windows, we were the maroon 4-Runner that had nothing of value in it and smelled like mildew.
Before I praise you for your commendable work I wanted to apologize. We are so very sorry to have wasted your time by not keeping anything of value in our car. You put forth so much effort searching through our center console and glove compartment that we feel awful that we had nothing to offer in return. Our selfishness is unforgivable, we can only hope that you took pleasure in destroying an entire sheet of glass.
But enough of this depressing talk, let us speak of how your simple act lit a candle of joy in our lives. We truly relished spending our Saturday calling around to several different junk yards to find a replacement window. You know how we love a challenge, and finding that window certainly was! Ryan had to travel to 3 different junk yards to find what he needed, which means that was 3 different opportunities to appreciate the true appeal of a junk yard. He hasn't had to do that since college, it was a nice walk down memory lane. I thoroughly enjoyed myself as well. Vacuuming is among my most favorite of past times. And I will tell you what, the amount of times I had to vacuum the front and back seat on the passenger side to remove that glass, well it was like opening gifts on Christmas Morn. Of course, I still couldn't get it all as I found out later that day when I sliced open my finger. Maybe I could leave my car in the same spot again in hopes that you will smash it in so that I might have more opportunities to vacuum and get better! Of course I know that you will be expecting something of value this time, how about a loaf of zucchini bread?!
We just wanted to say thanks for giving us the chance to take a break from all the house work we had to do so that we could put that car back in to working condition. Your thoughtfulness is truly inspiring. We just wish there was some way to pay you back, if we could just meet you in person, we have a beautiful bat and taser we would love to personally give to you as well as a free ride in a policeman's car!
Ok, well until we meet again,
Adieu!
Sincerely,
The Browns

Why Y'All Got's To Be Hatin' On My Phone?!
Someone saw my cell phone the other day and asked me how old it was. SERIOUSLY?! Kids these days I swear. I enjoy my old phlip phone, but it does keep dying, so maybe I should upgrade...

Current Mood: Fuckin' Pissed
Unfortunately, I could not find any images to illustrate my current mood, so I will just have to try and express it through the written word.
Sometimes I have the urge to take "WildThing" our trusty purple chainsaw and gracefully submerged it into the walls, desk, and other personal items of my office. The satisfaction I would experience from taking a baseball bat and majestically bursting through every window would be indescribable. To free myself from Perfectional Tyrants through the use of violent means would be the culmination of my career.
And yet, like any other American in this economy I need the money more than I need self-respect. How many of us must suffer humiliation and creative stifling to appease those of the "Bloated Paychecks" Category?
Oh well, thankfully there is a cold beer waiting at home to drown my sorrows.

Cougar Room- to the Second Power!
The nudie photo is from the Men's Restroom. Monica and I had been hearing about this all night long, so we finally took it upon ourselves to go in there and see what all the hub-bub was about.
You can see I am sporting the Red Lip Stick- any reason to wear red lip stick is a celebration indeed. I am also wearing my "slip" dress that I bought in high school and it still fits! It is both exciting and depressing in one. Why? Well joy for being the same size, depression for being the same size in the bra -wah, wah, wah...
I also made a new friend that night, Camille Goodman, fashion designer extraordinaire. She was pretty amazing, you can check out who she is at http://www.millievixen.com/ You will not be disappointed. We were kindred spirits!

Cougar Room
After Angela's b-day dinner we jetted over to Vito's where Noah had rented the Cougar Room and we celebrated is birthday there.
Bangela's B-Day Dinner
Saturday we met up with Angela (middle left), her sister, brother-in-law, and friend for dinner at Quinn's. Yes, the wait was ridiculous, but it was worth it. The atmosphere was good and the food was unique and Delicious. We had a really nice time and it was great to finally meet some of Angela's family and friends. Her sister was really sweet and her brother-in-law was really down to earth, we liked them both. I really enjoyed Ashley, Angela's friend who moved here recently from Montana. She was also the first Leo I met of the night. It was a great evening to celebrate a great gal. Angela- now you are finally in the blog- WOOT!
