Uh....thanks?

I went out to get my mail today and there was a new sign posted above our mailboxes:


Uh...thanks? So, what am I supposed to do with this information? I think maybe this is just so that when they are pulling my lifeless body from the rubble they can say, "I told you so!"

Can I get an "Amen!"?

I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am that Congress finally heard my crys and is extending the Summer Daylight Savings time. This year we are starting three weeks early (3/11) and are going one week longer (into November)! They say this longer use of Summer hours will save energy and compensate for our use of air conditioning in the summer. Hey, what ever excuse they can come up with it fine. I'm just excited to be able to go running at 7pm without my pepper spray! AMEN!

God, He thinks He's funny...

Recently my car's check engine light kept coming on. I also was freaked out when my radio started to change stations on it's own. So, I decided to embrace my extended warranty and take it in to get fixed. After some batting of the eyes and persuasive speech, I talked my new boyfriend Ray into giving me a voucher for a free rental car while my car was in the shop. I was quite proud of myself and quite excited to drive a stylin' car for a day. I even jumped on the Enterprise website the night before to see what kind of cars they had. The next morning I dropped my car off and headed off to get my cool new, free, rental car. They were super nice at Enterprise and told me they needed to give me a Toyota product due to their agreement with the dealership. This was the last Toyota they had left:

Need I say more? I felt about as cool as this girl looks. The fact that it had a built in mirror to watch your children in the backseat, solidified the soccer-mom stereotype. I think God was smiting me for being a greedy girl! I was officially humbled.
