So, today was a day full of sweets and joy... and joyness... No, really, though, good stories.
I was working Coat Check this morning for the big event going on up on campus. It was minorly boring, at least until... The Incident.
My coworkers and I were trying to condense the tables down as people came in and picked up their bags and their coats and what have you so that we wouldn't have to keep running clear across the Garden Court to find so-and-so's bag (that gets tiring, let me tell you). Well, we look down at this one table and someone goes, "Umm... is that what I think it is?" "What is that?" asks someone else. We poked the object with the bag it was sitting next to only to discover that "it" was a pair of lacy black panties from Victoria's Secret. Awkward! We laughed for a long time and someone finally got up the courage to get rid of it. Don't ask how, I was screaming "ew" the whole time trying to keep my eyes closed while at the same time attempting to see what was going on.
Tonight was also full of good times. Chilly invited me to go to the General Relief Society session of conference with her and some other dear, dear people. We got to go on this cool little golf-cart ride through the under-ground tunnels and ended up sitting about 5 rows back from the stand. And then, but what would you know it? Mary Ellen Edmunds was sitting just a few seats down from me! The General! In person! Live action and everything! I went up to her and she sort of tackled me with a great big hug then proceeded to Knight me with her umbrella. It was so awesome. She's amazing and I love her. I want to be just like her when I grow up.
Meanwhile, the "check engine" light on my car has suddenly decided to turn on and won't go away. The way Lola's been acting causes me to think that the transmission might be on its way out, which is so not cool. I'm going to take her down to the Ford garage on Tuesday (maybe Monday, if I can get out of class fast enough) to have her checked. I'm hoping she's just upset with me because I haven't been driving her as much as I was all summer long. That's got to be it, right?
It's nice to smile and laugh again, if you're wondering. And it's nice to have such amazing friends like Chilly and DL and Krishna, too. And Bob (I love you most, Bob).
