News

When Kristofor came to pick me up from my parents house on his way home from work he got out of the car and told me the engine was overheated - WAY overheated. The needle was way over the line, and a red light was on! (which is always scary - red lights can never mean anything good). Even though it was almost midnight, my dad came out and took a look at the engine. Turns out our coolant was non-existent, and there was a crack in the radiator. Eek! I hate car problems, mostly because I don't really understand them and they cost lots of money! My dad guessed what was wrong, and I thought we'd end up paying $500+ to put a new radiator in or whatever needed to happen, so I was pretty bummed! So we took it to the shop the next day and the lady quoted us a radiator price which was only $250. And even though they were booked solid, said she could try to squeeze us in. They ordered a new radiator from SLC, and by the end of the night, our car was fixed! I'm pretty sure the boy who always works on our car has a crush on me, which is why the service was so speedy and awesome. ;) Jk, but he did pump some air into our disabled tire, which was nice. So the total of everything, including the part, service, and whatnot didn't even end up being $300! I was sooooooo happy. Crazy how things work out, eh.

Anyway, surfing the internet today I discovered Circle Contact Lenses, which are big in Asia. They're just regular contacts, except they have an extra ring of color around the edges to make your eyes look bigger - I like them a lot, but would probably never get them. Pretty!

*On another happy note, I got a raise! I was so excited, I went and bought myself a new shirt.*
