And that's how the...key... crumbles?

Yep, that's my key! Without the key...ish part to it. It all began after a fun-filled night of disco skating. Just to quickly catch up everyone since I haven't updated in forever, my friends and I have found a new love which is disco skating down at Classic Skating. It's such a blast! But anywho, back to the story, we had exited Classic Skating into the bitter cold, dancing around to keep warm. I got up to my car and went to unlock my car with the key when a friend came up and asked for a ride. Right when I was about to answer, "Sure, no problem"... sure enough when I turned my wrist, my hand broke free. I looked down to see that the door was not unlocked, and that my key was missing it's most important part! The rest of it, was jammed in the key hole. I couldn't help but laugh, and when my friend Alec asked what's up, I simply just showed him my stump of a key. haha Alec's was the best reaction, he kinda squeaked when he exclaimed, "No way!". We all just sat there laughing. Soon, everyone gathered around, and we started scheming ways of getting me into my car. Lucky for me, in my Blue Van, all we had to worry about was getting me into my car cause I had another key made for starting my car. For once, that was a feature that I was very happy for. But, we each brainstormed ideas on how to break into my car. We are a very creative bunch. People were looking for bobby pins, coat hangers, "sturdy" sticks, etc. After awhile, I had an idea, which wasn't as creative as everyone elses, but effective none-the-less. Sadly, I had noticed that the other door on the otherside had the lock slightly unlocked. So we went over, and opened the door. AY AY AY! SUCCESS! So, after a 5 minute victory dance with everyone, I was able to get home. It was a VERY eventful and VERY fun night.
I call him, "Stubs". :)

so what is with the needing designated driver comment on your facebook? Is this why? because you broke dad's car?

Mandi West said...

hahaha no, the whole designated driver is a joke with the team because the team feels obligated a lot of the times to drive me home in our car. Somethin about my eyes goin funny, running into things, and always sleeping... yeah i think you know.

ps, I DID NOT BREAK DAD'S CAR! That key was rusted to the max and warped. I was just lucky enough to have it the night it decides to snap in half.
