Side Swiped...

Well...This week went pretty fast! Monday was Valentine's day and I did get some roses and really good chocolate. Dan got an art print and some Xbox points. We went out to eat the Chile Verde Cafe, and it was delicious!
All in all a pretty good week.

That is until Wednesday night... Dan and I are in a bowling league with my work. We play every Wednesday, and it pretty fun. On our way to the bowling alley on Wednesday night we were side swiped...There was a car trying to get off the exit onto the interstate, but we were there. Most cars would slow down and go behind, which this car eventually did, but then it went around us came up on our left side, came into our lane and hit our car and then drove off...
WHO DOES THAT?!??!

It was probably once of the strangest thing that have happened to us while driving. I don't think Dan saw it coming, as most of it occurred in his blind spot. Once I saw the car that hit us was not going to stop and in fact sped away, I yelled at Dan to get the license plates number while I tried to call 911.

I called 911, and it was strange experience. I never called them before so I am not sure what I expecting, but it was weird...
I hadn't seen the damage that was done and was expecting the worst, but it was not as bad as I had imagined it.

The officer came out and gave us the info of the person with the license plate number we provided, it was for a Hispanic woman, but I saw a white male driving. Which doesn't mean it wasn't her car, but we aren't 100% sure we had the right plate number.
I don't think any charges or tickets will be issued to the person, but our insurance company is looking into it...

Not sure if we will fix it or not, because in all honesty it isn't super bad, and would rather get a couch.

Here are some pictures I took aright after we pulled over at the Speedway gas station and were waiting for the police officer to come check it out.







We were lucky that this is all the damage that was done, and that we only missed 7 frames of bowling, and could play our whole second game!

Feb, R U Ary?

Well we are well into the month of February, so I thought I should probably write about something...

Last week Abbie and Alexis came to visit me and it was a lot of fun! It makes me miss when I could see them everyday!

The weather has been really cold here, it really feels like Iowa here...Dan and I ordered new coats, and they should arrive next week, just in time for our 50 degree weather....The ONLY reason I will be sad winter is over, is that Boot season will be over....BOOOO! Speaking of which Zappos and Piperlime are having sales!

I am still trying to get through the Freedom book, for the book club I joined...

Lately I have been feeling a lot like Jessie Spano at work, minus the caffeine pills. There are lot of projects with deadlines looming and I am finding myself saying,"There's not enough time...there isn't any time...." a lot. Don't worry I have people checking in on me!



I am working with Abbie and Alexis on planning Sarah's Bachelorette party on May 7. WE are going to go to the Cubs/ Reds game. I will cheer for the Reds. I want to make some schnazzy shirts for it...Any ideas?!?

Dan and I will probably do the same thing we did last year for Valentine's Day! It should be nice, and I will probably blog about it!



Now that February is almost over, March is well on its way here, which means March Madness is coming! YES!!!!!
