Brenda: I mean, didn’t you guys used to have nightmares about taking your driver’s test?
Kelly: God, no. I passed with flying colors. I think some people are just born to drive. I mean, I think it’s in my genes.
Donna: Oh, please! You should have seen Kelly when she first got her license. For the first month, I felt like a crash test dummy.
Kelly: So, I had a few fender benders. That’s how you learn. -Beverly Hills, 90210
I’ve never been a big fan of Mondays, and today was a big reminder of why. I was on my lunch break headed to a wedding accessories shop to look for a guest book, and to a consignment shop to try to sell a few of my old dresses. On my way there, this lady pulls out of a parking spot, doesn’t bother to look, and plows right into the passenger side of my car!! I swore like a sailor and then pulled into a nearby parking lot and went through the whole insurance exchange routine. Luckily the driver was a very sweet woman who completely admitted it was her fault. We inspected the damage and her car had a tiny scratch. My car had a big dent in the side, and a scratch down the complete length of the car, but it was drive-able and the dent didn’t cause the fender to rub against the tire. I kept reminding myself that it could have been so much worse. Oh, and the topper? The consignment shop only took one of my dresses of my hands instead of all three. GRRR.

I’m supposed to attach a brackety thing to the side things, using a bunch of these little worm guys. I have no brackety thing, I see no whim guys whatsoever and… I cannot feel my legs. -Ross, Friends
I may have mentioned that Match and I have a spare bedroom at our duplex. It used to hold our love seat, and was supposed to be a reading room/crafts type room, but I never sat on the love seat in there. So we moved it out to the living room, and I got rid of the big table, and replaced with with a desk. A desk that after many hours of grueling labor, sore fingers, and the need for me to take joint pain relief after kneeling for so long, is finally put together. And I told Match that we’re never again buying a build it yourself desk. We’re using this one until we’re rich enough to get a real wood desk and it’s getting delivered! More

Date GirlMatch Guy, Me graveyard shift, promotion, work
- Cheerleader: I am never gonna be captain again!
- Callie: You know, I was… I was fired from a job recently-
- Cheerleader: You were fired from being a doctor and they let you cut open my ass?!
- Callie: Okay, shut your trap for eight seconds and let me finish. I didn’t get fired from being a doctor, I got fired from being being like, well our version of squad captain. Which is mostly about organizing crap… not about surgery.
- Cheerleader: So?
- Callie: So, I got to go back to the part that I like… which is kind of a gift. -Grey’s Anatomy
Match started his new job this week, and the good news is we’re both thrilled to have him working again. The bad news is his schedule is completely opposite of mine. He’s working nights and doesn’t come home til I’m already at work. It could be worse-at least this way we do get to eat dinner together and visit a bit before he’s out the door at 10 to make his commute to work, right as I’m getting ready for bed. More
