Two words: Harry Potter


I am so excited! It's today, it's today! T- minus 2 hours and counting! Woo Hoo! It's Harry Potter Day - It's Harry Potter Day! OK I'm done - I just had to get that out of my system. I only wish that I had my Gryffindor scarf now - so when I wear it to the movie theatre - everyone will know which house I'm in.
Yeah. I know, I'm a huge dork about this stuff, but It's so cool - I just love it.

Sooooo yesterday wasn't so bad in the snow - none of it stuck to the ground so no problems driving and I made it to school mostly on time. The only think that sucks now - is the car is being a poop again. Every time we come to a stop light or stop sign - the engine starts puttering (I just made up that word) and then the car sometimes dies. It's died 3 times in the past two days. Tom said that his car was doing that and it ended up being the EGC belt - whatever that is. Something to do with emissions. All I know is that's a $100 part - alone. Craptastic.

As far as the other car goes - State Farm called and they did total out the car - they are giving us $695 for the damages - after my $1000 deductible. So at least we will get our money back. But we still don't have a second car.
everything happens for a reason - everything happens for a reason - everything happens for a reason.
They are paying for all of the tow charges and storage fees - and they gave me and extra $130 for the loss of use of a vehicle. I'm not complaining there.

Trav's B-day is in 2 weeks - he'll be the big 2-4 - and then I will too 12 days after that.
I already got him his presents - he has no idea what they are - but I remember him seeing them and saying that he wanted them REALLY REALLY BADLY. So I got em'. I can't wait for him to open it!
He thinks its a book that he wanted- but it's so not. If he wants me to, I can take the (blank) back and get him the book - it would be way cheaper :) hee hee

Tuesday night Brittney and I went to a hip-hop dance class in uptown - It was SO flippin' fun! Such a good workout - and we learned a whole choreographed dance. We are planning on going again next week. If anyone (*cough*, Stacy, *cough*) wants to come with us - they are more than welcome to. :)

Wednesday - I was bad and played hookey from school - I emailed my teacher and let her know and she emailed me back the assignment due next week so it was just like I was there. I had so much stuff to catch up on - I needed to pay bills and refill my prescription. It helped to stay and get all that done.
Trav and I went to dinner that night at Olive Garden. Our waitress was - lets just say - obese. She was very nice and a very good waitress. After she finished telling us the special - she offered us a free sample of chardonnay - I declined - Trav said "Sure". So she checked his ID - she looked at it - then looked back at him - and she said " Let's see, yeah, that looks like you without a hat on" Then she giggled and walked away to retrieve his free sip of wine. As Trav proceeded to put his wallet away he smugly and jokingly stated " All the big girls love me". I just shot him a look that said "Oh really, so you are saying I'm a big girl?" He immediately was like "NO - not YOU- I meant - I mean - no - I - aw crap" I thought it was hilarious and told him that I was going to write about it in my blog :) He's embarrassed. I love You, Guy!

I love my Thursday class - the teacher is great, his regimen is so easy to follow, my classmates are very open and they are all so very different - it's just great. AND the teacher said that at the end of every semester he takes his students out to pizza! and this semester it's on MY birthday! YAHOO! Free Davanni's on my b-day - HELLO!

So about me looking like a lesbian yesterday - I totally did. I had on black shoes - baggy khakis (but they are only baggy cuz I've lost weight - so that's a good thing) and a blue button-up shirt. I wore my hair down - but it was all flat. I was totally butch.

Alright - I gots to go now - I will try to write tomorrow so I can fill you in on my review of Mr. Potter and his fiery goblet.

BYE!
