Breaking and entering.

So we stayed at the nurse's house for a couple days. Yesterday morning, we packed up our stuff to go, and went out to the nurse's car to put in the trunk. The nurse said, "The car is open, so just pop the trunk from the inside." We got to her car. It was unlocked. We popped the trunk and opened it. Inside, there was camping equipment, which had not been there the night before. Confused, but not too concerned, we rifled through it, trying to make room for our backpack. After finding no room, we began to think about how the stuff got into the trunk. Curious, we looked at the rearview mirror to make sure the air freshener heart was hanging there. It was not. A slow realization finally came: this was not the nurse's car. We heard her calling from behind us saying, "No! Over here!" Mortified, we closed the trunk door and ran over to the nurse's ACTUAL car...and put our things in the trunk. After overcoming the initial embarressment, a certain "renegade achievement" feeling came over us. We had never broken into anything before...let alone a stranger's car. So we feel as though we have accomplished something in our lifetime, illegal as it may be, so we do not feel as nerd vanilla as we normally do. We are shamefully proud of ourselves.

The collections agent...I am going find you and you are going to pay

So this is my first post. We would have posted sooner but we wer on a vacation from the world wide web for while. We were at our favorite grocery store the other day, as we were leaving the store and reading a text from The Nurse we almost walked into a cement column. As we regained our compsure and trying once again to text and walk we were approched by a very energetic man. The man said " Excuse me sir!" we turned around and found this man was approaching faster than we could run away with our groceries in hand, so we said "yes?" The man said "I have a question for you". We said "okay..." The man said "Can you help me jump my car?" We explained to the man that we did not have a set of jumper cables in our car. the man said "I have some, so can you help me?" innocently we replied "sure where is your vehicle". The man said it was just down the road. While we were walking to my car the man inquired "Do you love Jesus" We said "yes" The man persisted "for real?" We again said yes. The man "than exclaimed "Praise the Lord! I have been praying and asking God for help. I am really in some trouble." We reached our vehicle and we wer trying to keep the man out of our car. We opened our trunk and of coarse it was full. So we went to the rear door and as we tried to start loading our vehicle the man budged his way past us and said here let me help. It was too late there was nothing seperating him and the passenger side seat. So as we walked the empty cart to a safe place the man waited. we returned to the vehicle and said to the man "we want to help you but we would prefer that you not ride in our vehicle with us." The man was upset and persisted that he would not harm me and that it offended him that I would think that he would. we said fine well where is your car. He pointed up the street torwards bailey and said "its right over there". Okay so we stepped into the vehicle and the man starts telling me how a friend swindled him and stole his paycheck and how he is out of gas and that a taxi cab driver stated he will help him get to and from a gas station if he could only find some money to buy the gas. we informed the man that I did not have any cash on us and in fact we didn't even have enough money in the bank to be able to get money out of an atm. By now we were by Toms Restaurant. The man's car was near UB South, not very close at all. So once the man realized we did not have any money for him he became upset and was no longer a nice christian brother. He started to ask us if I could get a cash advance off of one of our credit cards for him. we told him we could not do that. So he asked if I could drop him off at the tops on maple. As we were driving to Tops the man said "will you at least buy me some cigerettes so that we can give them to the taxi cab driver so he can help me" we again said no. The man said I am starving will you at least buy me some food from mcdonalds. we said we can do that. we bought the man a strawberry milkshake, double cheeseburger and some fries. As the man shoveled them into his mouth, we drove back to Tops where the man became aggravated because we weren't getting him there any faster. So we finally arrived at Tops. we prayed for the man and he jumped out of our vehicle and that is hopefully the last we will see of him.

Hmmmm....

So the nurse came home from work one morning and noticed her brown sneakers outside her doorway. Now this is usually a very normal occurrence for her as that is where she keeps them. However, in viewing said sneakers that morning, she casually remembered not seeing them the night before. In fact they had not been there since she had put them out there, after she got back home from vacation a week ago. "Hmmm," she thought as she bent over to investigate. The shoes also had new additions of grass, small amounts of dirt and, yellow hair. "Oh, that is very strange," she thought. And suddenly the thought struck her: "My neighbor...has a golden...retriever." Lol at least there were no chew marks :)

Helloooo Charlotte!!

The nurse decided to go to Texas and so flew out of Buffalo to Charlotte at 730. However, as Buffalo's flight out was delayed by an hour, she wasn't sure she'd make it to her connecting flight. 'Please God, let us land near gate E25,' she prayed silently as the plane descended. Well, she did not receive the answer she was hoping for. Landing was at 905am at gate C4. So, the nurse booked it to gate E25 at the other end of the terminal. She got there 5 minutes after her plane had taken off. 'Oh well,' she thought, I'll just get the next flight out.' She asked the nice lady at the gate for the next flight out to Austin. 'Oh, I'm sorry ma'm, the next flight out to Austin is at 430 pm,' she replied in her lovely Indian accent. So the nurse despairingly obliged, and took the boarding pass for the next flight to austin, flying out of that God-blessed gate E25. Did the nurse get anything out of this? Well, if you mean a lesson to be learned, no. But she did get a food voucher :) With which she enjoyed a tasty cinnabon, from an authentic Charlottian...Cinnabon.

Oh, P.S., as the nurse is still there, she is sure to enjoy a nice shopping excursion before returning to the lovely gate E25. ;)
