Wow, what a day of emotional irrationality. It all started at Michela's house when I walked to see her sitting alone on her couch, sobbing uncontrollably with the TV paused on a commercial. She greeted me with an 'OH MY GOD' and continued to tell me about "the saddest thing she had ever seen." Thinking this was going to be a typical Michela exaggeration, I braced myself for some stupid reality TV moment that meant nothing to me. I ended up being half right, because what she introduced to me on this lovely night was the show 16 & Pregnant. I scoffed when I saw the title, but the show was so sad and good! I'm sure not every episode was like this one, but these two 16 year old's who were (you guessed it) pregnant were giving up their baby. They were in love and it was so sad because they were both way more mature than their failure parents, and wanted what was best for the baby even though they loved it and didn't want to give it up they knew they couldn't support it. It was really emotional, and not what I expected to do on the Friday night before I left for a week.

It only gets better. Can I just say I easily laughed the second hardest I've ever laughed in my life. The hardest I've ever laughed was at Jenny's house once when I was taking wicked funny pictures with her and Bry. HA. That's neither here nor there. (I never understood this expression, it was there at some point, wasn't it?) Anyways, let's just say So You Think You Can Dance? is an amusing show. God why did I watch do much reality TV tonight? Baby Brandon. So funny.

Then, on the ride home in the pouring rain, I was the most scared I've ever been by something that happened in real life. I thought I was going to die. It was thundering and lightening and my old dim car lights were barely lighting the road with my high beams on. The detour of Princeton was throwing me off and I somehow managed to turn onto a dirt road, called School House Road. It got darker, and the road got narrower. My car was running low on gas and my phone didn't have any service. Perfect set up for a horror movie right? Lightening flashes, illuminating what seems like the entire sky. It dispenses just enough light in a brief flash to reveal a humongous tree down in the middle of the road. I was left with no choice but to back up down the entire street light deprived road, where I could barely see out my back window. It was truly frightening and the thunder and lightning heightened leaving me in a panic state as I made it back to the main road. My heart was beating so fast and I had the feeling when you just "know" you are going to die.

All three over-exaggerated feeling today resulted in my now nauseous and exhausted state of mind. Vacation is like a gift send from God. I will have internet, hopefully so I can tell you all about it. I leave tomorrow morning and I have yet to pack.
