She&#8217;s a brat, but it was still good.  That&#8217;s right.. I just let the whole world know she&#8217;s a Brat.  So uh.. what else.. OH we talked haha.  Got tired of sitting in Subway.. so we went to the Fiesta Mall and walked around for 20 minutes before the whole mall closed.  So then I drove around some more.. and she had to go to the Bathroom.. haha so we went to Walgreens.  And uhh&#8230; oh she got done and we were talking outside Walgreens.<\/p>\n<p>Fun right?  Yah.  Then I see sparks fly and this dude wipe out before my eyes.  This guy on a motorcycle hit the curb, shoes went flying, helmet knocked off, and he&#8217;s laying on the ground.  Me, Tara, and a few others run over to him.<\/p>\n<p>He got right up, a friend who was following him helped him get his bike to the side, the nice paint was scratched up.  The guy who took the fall kept holding his hand.. someone called 911 and less than 5 minutes later we saw a bunch of cops, a fire truck and an ambulance.<\/p>\n<p>They bandaged him up, he wasn&#8217;t hurt that bad, boy oh boy was he lucky.  So of course when the cops and everything showed up, people starting coming from inside and across the street to see what had happened..  and yeah everyone asked us what happened..  we were the&#8230; eye witnesses!!<\/p>\n<p>Who woulda thunk it?<\/p>\n<p>So Sunday I met up with Arlene, who I haven&#8217;t seen in ages.. and it was good.  *nods*  We met at the Metrocenter, and I waited an hour for her to show up, so I walked around a lot looking or something to do.  They have a skate park in that mall.  That&#8217;s kinda cool.<\/p>\n<p>Work today or.. yesterday was good.  Come to think of it.. today and yesterday were both good.  I got off the phones, they had me ordering parts for the call center.. for a few hours each day.  Very nice.  I enjoy that much more than being on the phones.<\/p>\n<p>I uh&#8230; yeah.  I think that&#8217;s about all that&#8217;s happened.  Crazy thing is.. the past few days have been good and I haven&#8217;t gotten 5hours of sleep.. IF that a day.  more like 4.. and im doin fine.  haha woohoo go me.<\/p>\n<p>Much props to all the good people I talk to on Xanga.<\/p>\n<p>Ohh.  that was just a shout out.  Go me.<\/p>\n<p>Yankees play today.  So I got some good oil for my car and now it wont have to be changed til like&#8230; December.<\/p>\n<p>So yep.  Nothing big on this post.<\/p>\n<p>I forgot to say on my last post :<\/p>\n<p>46% of people believe people can be possessed by the Devil.  Crazy stuff.  All the Devil has to do.. is make us believe that he doesn&#8217;t exist and he&#8217;s won.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to write up some stuff I&#8217;ve been writing on paper.  So bare with me.. if you wanted the post or the update.. you got it.
