just one of those days...

{one}

i have been having really strange dreams.

it has to be because of all of the vampire books i have been reading.

every night i dream of this scary bad vampire dude that has made me do his bidding. as in...he has bitten me and made me suck his own blood, so now i have to do whatever he wants...including helping him kill ted. i wake up crying! it's horrible. sigh.

{two}

so after my horrible dream this morning, i woke up thinking it was friday.

don't ask me how i got that idea...i srsly don't know what i was thinking.

i got ready and put on my denim jeans, thinking it was casual friday.

i love casual friday. best day of the week. it makes me happy.

oh haaaai. it's tuesday.

i felt like a kid who got her present taken away on christmas.

better put on a skirt. sigh.

{three}

started driving to work and was delighted that i tuned in on time to hear "second-date-update" on johnjay and rich.

while i was listening i noticed a loud sound coming from my car.

pulled over in the kohl's parking lot to check my tires.

sure enough...one was slashed.

yes. slashed. with a knife. who does that?

i call work to tell them i will be late.

i call ted (who is in class)...he tells me to walk home. um..no.

i call my dad (who is at work)...he doesn't answer.

i call ty (who is at work)...he doesn't answer.

i call my mom (who is a girl...obvi)...she tells me to call a boy.

i call BFF sterling (who is a boy...fits the criteria) and i wake him up from his sleep to beg him to come change my tire.

i missed second-date-update. sigh.

{four}

i felt bad that i woke sterling up.


{five}
felt even worse that my jack broke.
yes. it broke. awesome.


{six}
felt bad that i was wearing a white skirt (because it's not friday!) and couldn't lend a hand. plus...my legs are hairy so i didn't want to get too close, as to embarrass the tedward that his wife is a neandrothol.
felt bad that my tires were brand new...and since it was slashed it won't get replaced for free.

{seven}
but in the end...i was grateful that ted and i are blessed with good friends.
thanks sterling! we owe you lunch. or a woman...or something.

in other news, zac efron has his first ever 12-month calendar!
all single ladies that read my blog...
please buy it and let me live vicariously through you. kthanxbye.
here is just a sampling of the 2010 calendar...

i don't get why people slash tires. Not cool, guys. Not cool.

Ives said...

Sorry about your tire! Why would someone do that? It happened to my sister once. Sounds scary to me.
Didn't know you were a Zac fan. He's a cutie.
Your friend Sterling (great name) should call my single sister.... he's a cutie and came to your rescue!!
Cheers to you and your blogger friends

The Neels said...

Okay so the weird dreams. Could you be pregnant? Pregnancy seems to cause REALLY weird dreams. Just wondering. Sorry about the tire. As for the Zac Efron calendar (hot, hot hot), I think I will buy my youngest daughter one so that I can look at it everyday without my husband knowing what's going on. haha

Char and Trent said...

Im not single but I will definatly be buying the calendar. I already have a poster of him in my office and will be adding the calendar shortly

sarah said...

I HATE days like that!! I'm sorry things haven't been going so well today. I hope it gets better!! :)

Shantel said...

Wait until you are pregnant. You dreams get wacky-crazy.

I had a YW leader who told me that Satan was more than likely very good-looking. I'm just sayin'....

Marianne said...

Glad your friend came to the rescue! So you owe him a woman?
Umm...HI! I have a woman for him! She is adorable and fun and she thinks he looks adorable and fun...!She's on my blog today...singing with the dog! Did I say she was fun? Yes. I did. And she makes killer brownies!

Caitlin said...

Aww, I hope your day get better!

Jenny said...

I hope your day gets better!

Eat some chocolate and it will! I Pinky Promise!

Slashed tires are no fun... I once had all 4 of mine slashed... Sucked big time...

Good friends are hard to find... Good friends that know how to change a tire are even harder to find!

Meghan O said...

Oh no! I hope your day gets better =)

Thank You for telling me about that beautiful calender. I'm totes getting it!

Miss Marie said...

Why would any one slash your tires?? :(

WTG sterling, hit me up :) haha

Nick & Kristin said...

i can't believe someone literally SLASHED your tire! That's such a bummer. I also hate, hate, HATE scary dreams! I hate the feeling that they give you when you wake up and you can't shake it off for another 4 hours! yucky! so sorry for you

lilnelablack said...

I just love these kind of days... NOT!
& what kind of creeper slashes random tires?? lamespice

Rugergirl said...

Hope your day gets better. I have to agree with the prego comment. Maybe you are. Write your dreams down and try to decode them during the day. Remember you are in control of your dreams, you can take control of the "vampire" and save ted. Sometimes violence in a dream can be an off-shoot of heroic behavior. You were going to save him ,but you woke up instead. Google predictions dream dictionary. That way you can get some peaceful sleep. Maybe dream about Zac Efron :)

Karen said...

Sometimes if I eat things before I go to bed I have crazy dreams. So sorry about your tire! Let's go stomp on who did it! What a sweet friend to come change your tire ;)

JustRandi said...

YAY for Sterling!!
call it a GREAT day - because you didn't have to depend on a hairy truck driving stranger to change your tire.
(Which would have been very generous of the hairy truck driving stranger, but you know what I mean...)

Beth's Blog said...

hope your day had gotten better! :)

Mormishmom said...

Who slashes tires??? Sorry your day has been terrible. I hope it got better!

Molly said...

I wanna eat the person who slashed your tire...GRRR TO THEM!!!

Sarah said...

I hope your day gets better!

Brenn said...

First -- I am so sad to hear you are having a rough day!! :( Hope everything gets better for you.

Second --I officially volunteer to be Sterling's woman! Admittedly I might be a bit oung though... :)


Hope your day gets better girl!!

Sara White said...

I think it's the time of year. I have been having some craaaazzzy dreams as well. Why can't we dream of Zac? Why are they always bad dreams??? I would not mind walking down a road somewhere and tripping only to be caught by....What???Zac Efron laying in the grass on the side of the road?? Well, This MUST be my lucky day.

Ann Marie said...

I'm having the weird dreams too.. but mine are all action --CIA stuff because I watch 24 every night...

Sorry about your tire.. and your day! ((HUGS!))

Britney Jean said...

sounds like a not-so-fun day.

hope it gets better!

angela hardison said...

oh no! i hate hate hate car problems. sorry you had to go through that.

in other news, i listen to johnjay and rich every morning and laugh to myself. i got to work just before second date update, so i can't fill you in. but did you hear the people's stories about freak-outs? i was laughing.

Loys said...

Reading that someone just goes and slashes other peoples tires makes me incredibly mad! Seriously. I can't understand why someone does that!
So sorry to hear that your day started off that bad. Hope the rest of the day will be better!

KatOfDiamonds said...

...um, how the heck is sterling still single?

i wish you a better day!

Nancy Face said...

"i call my mom (who is a girl...obvi)...she tells me to call a boy."

Haha! So true, obvi...and I busted out laughing when I read that! :D

Bethany said...

That is awful! Who would slash your tire?! What a jerk! whoever did it! um...too bad I already bought a 2010 calendar...dang what was i thinking!

Adam and Nicole said...

"Slash tire man" GRRRR to you! Sorry about your day! I am sure it will get better.
So you could totally hook Sterling up with my sister, she went to WW too and she says she remembers him (she might have even had a crush on him, but she won't admit it)

Amber W. said...

Go buy "Catching Fire" audiobook on iTunes, take a long, luxurious bubble bath whilst listening to said audiobook, daydream of peeta, and let it wash away the day...

Kylie said...

I am so buying a Zac Effron callendar!!! ahhhh I LOVE LOVE LOVE him.

Ella Press said...

Sorry about your tire! I don't get why people do that...

OK, going to take a shower and kep reading Hunger Games. <3

xo,
Ella

Allison said...

I have weird repeating dreams as well....when I was five, I dreamed nightmares about Cruella de Ville. Yup. She's pretty scary.

BOOO to the person who slashed your tires.

and YAY!! for Sterling!

as a side comment- as you couldn't do anything to help with the car, you just took pictures instead? :D

Natalie Ann Ingram said...

Seriously people do that? Way super lame. I felt so bad for you when I read your twitter. I wished that I had lived in Mesa so I could come help you. YAY for BFF Sterling. Get him a girl.


Happy rest of the day!

amanda leeann said...

lamespice! just think about peeta mellark ;)

i couldn't remember what day it was today either.

and i have no idea why people slash tires. so.not.cool. but yay for sterling!

The Gomes Family said...

Are you serious? Fingerprint that tire and stuff and catch that snatch who did that, yes, I said it snatch!

Erica &amp; Albert said...

slashed?!? that is foolish! I'm sorry. But at least Sterling is a stud and came to the rescue. Don't tell my husband I called him a stud :)

I had "one of those days" too. I share your pain via the internet

ps I need to email you about catching fire and gossip girl, since I watched my first episode ever last night and want to know if you think chuck bass is creepy like i do!

Kaitlin said...

Someone slashed your tires?! That's so...evil.
I'm very sorry for your bad day:( If it makes you feel any better, it's my 16th birthday today. No, that didn't work? Well, it helped me, but I guess that's kinda a one-person deal.
And I'm reading The Hunger Games completely under you reccomendation. I'm liking it so far so you win.
:)Kaitlin

alyssabender1 said...

Mike and Chels said...

Um that is a sad day! But my Tuesday also started out kind of like that! I have horribly weird dreams every night...but Tuesday morning I woke up thinking it was Friday too! And I was freaking depressed when I realized it was Tuesday and that I indeed had to go to work (I don't work on Fridays). But luckily none of my days lately have been unfortunate enough to have a massive boo boo (knock on wood). So you probably live close...since you're in my ward and all, so we should do dinner or bbq and swim (we have a pool, and its sparkeling, just waiting for some people to love it). And we can be friends, and you can call us for help if ever you need it (Michael is especially good at all that man-ish stuff we girls can't handle). Give me a call! 480.347.7450

Lacey said...

What ever happened to "Win a date with sterling?" I'm interested in how your experiment went.

Tori said...

Slashed? What the hell? YAY for Sterling!

Happy anniversary week! I'm too lazy to comment on every post... ;)

neffie said...

I'm a little behind on your blog. I feel your pain, I almost went to work today in jeans thinking it was Friday. But I at least it was Thursday instead of Tuesday. I feel your pain.

Oh my goodness, what a great friend to have! He comes to help you even after you woke him up. That's a keeper.
