Rock-A-Thon went extremely well on Monday. We raised over $1700 for our philanthropy. I am really happy that everything worked out as well as it did. I was there from 7am to 9pm. I ate my lunch in a rocking chair and then I ate my dinner in front of a rocking chair- so there's dedication for ya!
Some interesting things have happened in my life. Yesterday myself and some of the officers cleaned out the storage unit. Boy, did we find some good stuff in there. I believe I left with 10 2XL shirts because at some point in my life I am thinking that I would like to wear them...what was I thinking? Have any of you ever seen the show "Hoarders" ...basically it is these people that have a sickness- they can't throw out their junk so it just accumulates until they can barely live in their house. It's a serious problem. It ruins families, lives, and houses. I'm just saying- anyways I was noticing some tendencies from myself in which Thank JESUS that I had Kate there to tell me we were throwing things away. It's true we will never need puff balls or alphabet blocks (we are donating them to the boys and girls club)...
The lady that runs the storage unit helped take some of our things to the dumpster. She let us ride on her golf cart which was pretty sweet, although I was hanging on for dear life sitting on the back of the golf cart...she kept referring to her butt as a "bodunky" and how she was clipping bushes or something and the ladder fell and she was hanging on the side of the storage unit. I wish we would have gotten to see that. Not because I think it's funny she was hanging off the side of a storage unit and could have seriously hurt herself but because she was hanging off the side of a storage unit. It just feels like something that would happen to me. LIke the time that was at said storage unit and locked my car keys in the little space between the door and the trunk.
Okay- let me explain. I was grabbing a box out of my trunk and set my keys on the trunk area (think 2001 Silver Pontiac Sunfire)... its at the top of the back of the car, it dips down a little where the door meets the car. (Not the front half of the trunk) .... does this make sense? It would be ideal if Courtney actually taught me how to put pics on this bad boy from my phone... *cough cough* still waiting.
So I throw the keys over there and on my way out without thinking, I shut the trunk. I go to get in my car and realize- hey, I can't start it wwithout the keys. But where did I put them? I can't figure it out at this point. OHHH HEYYYY keys in the crease between the car and trunk door. I pulled down the back seat and climbed into the trunk, couldn't reach it enough to slip it through the crack. OHH you ask, why don't I just pop the trunk? Simple- that's not an option unless you have the key lock thing which at this point was locked IN the trunk. So I sat there for a minute or two with my head in my hands hanging out the driver side with the door open... A PEN. Yes- a PEN. I got a pen, stuck it in the crack, hit the trunk pop button and viola! BACK IN BUSINESS LADIES AND GENTS, BACK IN BUSINESS.
So just call me Mcguiver.
That's all for this one.
