Car Trouble

I told John it was his turn to post something, but since he's been working so much I figured I would give him a break and post instead :)

To add to the list of bad things that have happened to my car, someone tried to break in sometime this weekend... My dad guessed that they caused about $800 in damage, just from bending the frame of my doors, which should technically be painted, and need new weather stripping...yay... I have LOVED my little Jetta, except that it seems to always find a way to get damaged somehow. In the past year it has been:

1. Rear-ended, luckily nothing really happened to it, except that I was scared to death because my dad had just finished painting it and making it really nice for me to drive.

2. It was backed into. The same day I moved into my dorm at USU, someone's dad backed into it while it was parked in the parking lot. After I freaked out a little we found that he was kind enough to leave a note, so my freshly painted car was fixed and put back to normal.

3. It was almost stolen by a stupid tow truck driver who had mistaken my car for my neighbor's black Jetta that he was supposed to be taking to the dealership.

4. And it was almost broken into by someone who obviously didn't know what they were doing, especially because the car is almost 15 years old and there was nothing in the car except a $20 FM transmitter, and they weren't able to get into it anyway...

In other news...the wedding plans are coming along great! I just had my bridals taken, invites are almost ready to go out, and we have enough furniture that we can probably get by! John's dad found us a kitchen table and chairs at a yard sale and seeing it just kinda made things more real for me! It made me excited to think that we would have somewhere to eat dinner and do homework! John and I are also going to the Oakley Rodeo with my family for the 4th, so hopefully we'll post some pictures of our cowboy and cowgirl adventures when it's over!
