Oh Friday night.
After Jantz got off work he picked me up and we went to get some Panda Express for dinner (brilliant idea on his part). Then we decided it would probably be a good idea to get some drinks, so we stopped at our favorite gas station (is it weird that we have one? apparently their Mountain Dew is amazing - and who am i to dispute that? i can barely tell a difference between Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi - although I DO know there is a difference, but i love both...anyway....). We got our drinks and looked across the way to the Walgreens Redbox and decided that we definitely needed to check for Harry Potter because I haven't seen it and I have been desperate to.
Now the story gets good. We were on our way home when Jantz had to break for a stoplight. It wasn't even a hard break, but I guess it was sudden enough that my Diet Coke sprang from it's cup holder and exploded all over the front of the car. On the dashboard. On the seat. On the floor. On the bag of food. On my precious leather bag from Florence. Even inside my shoes. It was everywhere. We were both so shocked we didn't even know what to do. I think we looked at each other, laughed for a second, and then freaked out.
As you can guess, the next hour was spent scrubbing Diet Coke out of the car. We got it all out (thankfully!) and even cleaned up my purse (which I was most grateful for). Jantz insisted that we get me another drink (because he just loves me like that). After we finally got home, we set our food out, put in the movie, and had a very pleasant night. Harry Potter is amazing (in case you didn't already know that) and I can't wait for the final movie.
The moral of the story is: don't trust your cup holders

Oh no! Those are the absolute worst moments haha today when I was riding home from work my water bottle cap came off in my purse and emptied itself into my bag without me knowing. Not only did it soak EVERYTHING but it seeped out of the seams and into my lap so it looked like I had peed my pants haha. I guess you just have to laugh those things off!
PS- belated congrats on your engagement!!! THAT IS SO EXCITING!! Do you have any wedding plans yet??
I am having total flashbacks. Strawberry shake. And you eating it off of the car mat. hahahaha. good times.
