One Strange Day...

Have to blog this because it's just been a weird day...

1. Gammy and Dapaw were at it again, tag-teaming injuries. (for those of you who are unaware, the first incident was a couple of years ago when dad had foot surgery, Mom was taking care of him, ended up breaking her shoulder, and he had to take care of her instead!) So Dad did this ill-advised maneuver on a loading dock, flipped backwards, mom catches him in mid-air, thereby preventing his head from crashing into the pavement, but in the meantime, he kicks her accidentally while in motion, now she possibly has a torn hamstring. Sigh. Other than that, everyone's OK. No broken bones.

2. Went to go pick up Hubby Nugget's vehicle at the dealership, it was being fixed and maintained in preparation for our trip, only they didn't have it done because there was another warranty part that was broken, need to replace it, here's your rental. Uhhh, is it OK if we drive the rental to Denver? Ummmm, no. As a joke, HN asked if they would give me a new hubcap to replace the stolen one in lue of the rental and they said "DONE!" I guess they really didn't want us to drive the renter over two states, in the mountains...

3. Traffic on way home from dealership was so slow due to several wrecks, so we dove into a Buffalo Wild Wings to wait it out and have early dinner. Also, we were hoping to re-establish our World Domination in the trivia game. So we were enjoying our tasty Guinness's and they start moving this table next to us to make for more seating. Except the burly guy picks the table up and attempts to lift it over our precious Little Nugget's noggin. Talk about maternal instincts kickin in!!! Before I knew it, I was screaming "AACCKK!" and placing my hands over her head like a useless hand helmet. In the process, I knocked over my tasty beverage! I was freaked out on adrenaline, let me tell you!!!! I guess the guy was afraid we might sue, so he bought us another round. So that was pretty nice. But we only finished second in the trivia game.

4. Little Nugget had SO MUCH FUN at the RESTAURANT (this is odd in itself). Not only did she eat a WHOLE CHICKEN TENDER, but when it was time to go, she didn't want to leave! Now this is usually the girl who wants to leave as soon as she's done eating. No. We were ready to leave before her. She REALLY liked the trivia keyboard thingy. Might have to get one for her for her birthday.

So there you have it.

Must be some weird planet alignment or something.

All for now,
Nugget
