It looks like a battery...

So I'm feeling guilty for the amount of time between posts. For Thanksgiving I went to my parents in Alabama with my roomie. After driving all night, sleeping for a bit we enjoyed a nice massage and facial. Going home is the best!!
The food was fabulous, if waddling and tight pants are any indication, then I at way too much food while we were there. I experienced a first this Thanksgiving...I participated in the phsyco that is Black Friday. I alway thought those people were nuts (I still do). But Friday morning...somewhere around 2:30, my cousin Becky, my dad and I headed out to Best Buy to try and save money. It worked after waiting 3 hours in the cold, I was the new owner of an extremely discounted laptop. Its so pretty---ok maybe not pretty, but I'm very happy ;-)
Next year--2:30 in the morning...you will find me warm and in bed sleeping soundly, because I am never doing that again.
Our time in Auburn ended but before my car could make it home to Florida it needed a new battery.
We headed over to Auto Zone (a very fine establishment) where they will put the parts in for you!! I bought a battery and then a boy who didn't look like he was more than 14- but who said he was a student at Auburn- installed it in my car.
When he was almost finished he came up and kindly asked- "Would you like to look at it before I bolt it in?" I walk to the car and look-I then reply "Yes, it looks like a battery - thank you." The young lad smirks at me and says, "No, I mean would you like to start the car to make sure it works" Stupid, stupid Erin....I just thought it was a trick question.
Oh well, my trip was awesome and now I'm back in the heat...hooray
Good vacation and good to be home!!
