I totally forgot!

K so I totally forgot to mention in my "review of December" that I HIT a DEER! Ok Ok, so I really didn't full on "HIT" a deer, it was more of a tap. I remember it like yesterday....

It was a cold night and I was making my long journey home from the airport and I actually had to stay a little late so by the time I was close to home it was about 11:30pm and I was pooped! I had the heater on cause I was still cold from workin' out in the snow and the eyes were getting heavy. I was seriously struggling to keep them open. I was actually smacking my face every now and again to try to stay awake. I finally turned off the heater and it sorta helped....ok not really....but needless to say all you need to see is a deer right in the middle of the road to make your eyes go the size of softballs. I had always learned that your not supposed to swerve in the direction that the deer is headed because he'll most likely keep going that way, so your supposed to just stay straight. WELL.... since it was my first time having to slam on my breaks, my instinct took over and I started to swerve and slam on the breaks with both feet. (Luckily I had learned that I needed to push on the breaks as hard as I can when you need to stop cause I didn't realize that 15 days after I got my license and hit a Domino's pizza delivery guy) So I was thinkin' of that moment and knew I needed to use all my force. Anyway, I stopped just in time for my car to BARELY knick the hind legs of the ginormous deer. I'm not kiddin'. That thing was a huge buck with huge antlers and it was standing directly in front of my car! I swear it looked at me like, "Uh....what the eff? I'm just tryin' to cross the street here!" and then he ran off. I'll tell you what, my adrenaline was soarin' and I didn't have heavy eyes until after I got home. My immediate reaction was, "Oh, I gotta call Jason" but then I was thinkin', he's probably asleep and nothing actually happened... I'm ok and my car is perfectly fine. So I got home and sure enough he's sound asleep and so I waited til morning to tell him!

So that's my, "I hit a deer story"! I like the fact that it sounds worse than it actually was, but now I can say that I've hit a deer! Hopefully that is the last time too!

(Ok, I'm not trying to rub it in but...... I am leaving for Hawaii in three days!!! Yay! 10 days in the nice warm weather! )

December Review

So just a recap of things that happened in December:

*We flew into Philidelphia and drove down to Florida, with stops along the way... of course. (This was actually in November, but I thought it was worthy of making the review!)

*Me and my moms birthday! I'm the big 26 now and she is still 30!

*Working out in the snow on the ramp at the airport in less than ideal conditions

*Clawson family party with lots of food and presents to enjoy

*Button family party with more food and funny white elephant gifts

*Discovering that Jason still got me a gift for Christmas even though we weren't doing anything for eachother since we are going to Hawaii in January. (I love him!)

*Ringing in the New Year like old people do....Layin' in bed watching t.v. (I know we are party poopers!!!)

So that's it in a nutshell. I haven't been that great on updating lately, but I am going to try more often for ALL MY READERS..... (All one or two of you that is)

Oh and PS........ I really do like comments and I know it's hard to comment on a lame post like this one, but you can still say something.... even if it's only a laffy taffy joke!!
