Yay I got my car back and it's all better!
A couple weeks ago I went to Valvoline to get an oil change before we went to Indianapolis for the weekend. We noticed on the way that the passenger door wouldn't open all of the way, it would catch on the fender. We just dealt with it and I figured I'd have it looked at when we got back. During the drive back when I stopped to get gas I noticed something silver sticking out under the hood. Fucking Valvoline had left a wrench under my hood and closed it on it. $1000 worth of repairs and a week of a rental car later it's fixed on their dime. Not getting my oil changed there anymore.

I think I just met the prince of idiots. As I walked out of the post office a guy in an Escalade pulled up. I was annoyed because he blocked me from backing out. He hops out of the SUV to run up to the mailbox and it immediately began to drive itself backward. I kindly pointed out to the guy that his car was driving away without him. He ran to catch it and managed to before it hit anything. He then decided to actually park. Maybe he should have actually tried that the first time. Moron. At least he didn't cause any damage.

So here's a request from you kickass people on my friends list. Give me a heads up on your name, or what I might have known you by and maybe why/how we met? what fandom and all that jazz?
I would be extremely grateful. I'd love to get back in touch with people but when I'm stumbling for who is who it makes it tough.
My favorite highschool teacher dies Thursday. It's feeling a bit surreal to me. Not only was he my favorite he had a lot to do with the person I became academically. I had him for both AP Chemistry and Physics. That Physics class was probably my favorite ever. He was very big on how Physics relates to the real world. That, to me, really hit home and solidified where I wanted to go with my life.
One of my favorite memories of him didn't happen in highschool. When I was in the Spartan Brass at Michigan State he did stats at the men's basketball games. Every game I was in the band for he stopped by to say hi an bring me a program and check up on me. Not only was he one of my favorite teachers I think I was one of his favorite students.
Mr DuByne I will never forget how you shaped my life and what you have meant to me. You will be misses.

I seem to always do this. Go forever without post then I pop in say I'm going to get better then disappear again. I would not be shocked if that happens again but I suppose we'll see?
I kinda got slapped in the face with a realization the other night about how I've fallen out of touch with some people that I really care about, one person in particular. We've talked about it and I think that's the most important step to fixing things. It also got me thinking about LJ and how much fun this used to be. I think I've come to realize why I kinda pushed it aside. Maybe now I can find my way back? I guess there's only one way to find out!
note to self: update the layout and icons later. that might be fun :)

good questions.
Part of me is okay with this. Ready to get back to the normal routine and back on track to lose some weight and get in shape.
But part of me is kicking and screaming and protesting hardcore. Well that and really really wanting to go back to sleep. Sleep is good.
yes, its Monday morning. Hello world.
