Fact # 3, 4 & 5

#3-I don't own a computer or laptop as you can tell...So I bet you are wondering how I have interntet access now...ahem, work. Ok, maybe I should be working, but, I've completed my project for the day and have nothing else to do. Yes I have internet on my Crack-berry, but the screen is too small for me to use! #4-I don't have a bed. You see, when I was moving my mom and dad decided to help me move my bed. So we loaded it up in my mom's truck and off we went...well 5 minutes into our travel we hit rain...and 3 seconds after that, we lost my box spring and mattress...Yes I am that white trash person who loses their belongings on the highway. Let me back up here. My mom was in her truck, my dad in his car, and Andersen & I in my car. I was ahead of my mom and I called her to tell her to turn around b/c of the rain, but as soon as she picked up, she told me we lost the mattresses...so I do not 1, but 2 illegal turns in the median of the highway, at 6:30 at night, during a down pour, w/ my son, and it was dark out. I find my parents and I pull off to the right of the road as far as possible without going into the ditch b/c I was worried about Andersen. We load up on the mattress...what about the box spring you ask? Well that was in the median about 1/2 a mile behind us...so we get the mattress to our destination and we were able to retrieve the box spring after that. So they sat on the front and back porch drying out for a couple of days adding to my check list of reasons why I'm oh so fabulous...dirty, tore up, and disgusting...no way to salvage them. At least they were almost 9 years old so I don't feel so bad...so in the interim...I have slept on the couch, the pull out bed, and an air mattress that needs air every night for the past 3 weeks. Go on, send the jokes...I don't expect anything less...and no I don't need a mattress you may find in your neck of the woods, nor do I want one off of Free.Cycle or Craigs.list...I want a new one...hopefully soon b/c my back is killing me! #5-I also do not have a T.V. at the moment...that also got broken in the move. Thankfully, it was also several years old...you know the kind where the dvd hookups are in the front of the tv. And it weighs about 100 lbs...So instead of moving to save money, I am now having to spend money...but at least I'll have new things right? How did I break my tv? Good question. A certain 'muscle head' decided to lift it off my entertainment center w/out checking to see if was still plugged into the wall and the cable outlet causing the face place to the cable to get ripped out of the wall and pulling the cable hook up on the tv out... Yup, good times have been had in my life lately...I just want to get settled...stop living out of boxes, get a tv, a mattress....
