Happy Weird Day to Me

Yesterday was one of those weird beyond weird days. I was already floating in a sleepy fog, since the Hub decided that two hours of sleep was all I needed. He did it again last night, only this time he opted for letting me have a thirty minute nap, instead of the whole two hours. Rough sleepers SUCK! Anyway, I got a couple of happy birthday surprises a day early. The first one wasn't so happy.

My body hates me. I got a gift a day early for my birthday, but a week early from it's scheduled delivery. The day before yesterday was the day that we discovered that moving slowly in the In-Laws hallway is a good thing.It's a good thing she put her hands up when she did! I plowed into the Mommy-in-Law while running full tilt down a windowless hall, first thing in the morning, trying to get to the bathroom. Ouch? We both survived unscathed, but now for phase two of my dilemma. I'm unprepared. GAH! Two hours and three pants washes later, I am now prepared and fully unhappy. Tomorrow is my birthday and my body has decided to make sure I spend it on my butt. How uncool.

So, I'm planted in the only place safe, a black vinyl chair, trying to find anything at all to occupy my time, when I get 2 birthday cards. The first was from the the Hubs parents. Very cute. The second threw me for a loop. Marlboro? Really? Complete with coupons. O.o Well, alrighty then. Weird.

Skip to an hour later. The Daddy-in-law is asking me where the paperwork on the busted ass Navigator is, which I'm clueless. He says "We'll need to roll it over there." gesturing from the Nav to the empty side of the driveway. From my vantage point, I can't see anything. "Where?" I ask, thinking he's saying we need to move the Nav out of the driveway. "To that." he answers. Now I'm really confused. I lift a little, so I can see better. There's a green vehicle in the drive. "Who's that?" He chuckles and says "That's yours." O.O ...."Huh?...Wait...What? From where? Since when? WHAT?" Now both of the Hubs parents are laughing at me. I was completely speechless after that. We now have a green, 1997 Ford Explorer.

I think I'm still in shock!
