Boy did I get spoiled last week. I got to sit back and watch while my favorite people wrote blogs and generated traffic for me. Hello, this is the life. It was almost as if God was looking down on me and saying, “You know what? She hasn’t gone grocery shopping in three weeks. Her bathroom looks like Nessie has been living in there for seven months, and her dog has recently decided it’s fun to run across the park far far away from her and not come back when she calls. Let’s give her some friends and some traffic and a swift kick in the pants!” I don’t pretend to understand the logic of the Almighty.

There were a few things that got me excited over the weekend. We purchased our domestic Argentinian flights and started to make some reservations for our vacation. Matt set me up with a Zipcar account and we ogled the Volvo parked down the street - available to drive on my every whim. I went grocery shopping and had so much fun that I came home and cooked for the first time in weeks. Scallops and brussel sprouts over pasta with a vodka cream sauce. We ate in front of the tv. Life was returning to normalcy and I was liking it very much.

Until I got the email. The email telling me that I’ve been rejected from Zipcar because of my highly suspect driving record. Apparently they’re not into my two speeding tickets on average per year thing. Bite me, Zipcar. I hate your Volvos sedans and Honda Elements. My dog and me are way too good for your services. Guess what we’ll do!? WE’LL WALK! AND WE’LL LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!
