Concerning Valentines, Saturns and Great Little Sisters
by coie - February 18th, 2008.Filed under: Uncategorized.
On Valentines Day I worked 7-4. As I was standing there waiting for customers, I heard the phone ring and ran to answer it. The conversation went like this:
"Thank you for calling Sevierville Home Depot, this is Coie, how may I help you?"
"COIE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Hi dad!"
"Happy Valentines Day!"
"Thanks!"
"Ok, bye!"
"That’s all you called for?"
"Yep– bye!"
Hardy har har.
Yesterday we went to Pull-a-Part so that we could look for parts to fix my car. Got the headlights, but the only gold Saturn that matched mine was missing the hood. I didn’t want a mismatched one, so we went on. Dad also took time to find a Saturn logo for me that was not scratched. It was raining the whole time, but he didn’t tell me I was silly, even though I know I am.
Got the headlights in with some difficulty due to a bent frame. But oh joy! dad was able to get a lot of the dents and damage removed from the hood, so I’m not concerned about it anymore. And my Saturn logo is back on the front. 😀
I had to take Ryann to the Orthodontist today and she let me take her take me on a birthday date. Catch that? We had a yummy meal at Ruby Tuesday’s and mochas at Starbucks (thanks grandma for the gift card!).
I came home and saw more presents for me on the bookshelf. Mom was bummed that I figured out two of the gifts, and I wasn’t even being sneaky! The second one I figured out on Tuesday. I said I was going to stop at the health food store and get Sucanat (raw, unprocessed sugar that looks like dirt) since I was almost out. She said, "No……Coie, I’m SO MAD at you!!!!! You’re ruining EVERYTHING!" I was utterly confused until she told me that was one of my presents. Whoops.
Tomorrow will be the first birthday that I’m forced to get up at 5am to go to work. Isn’t that against the law somewhere?

Yes, there aught to be a law!
Nobody should have to work on their birthday!!!!
Happy Birthday Coie! You are a special gal and I hope we get to see you again one of these days.
Your dad sure is a sweetie! Glad he is there to help with the auto.
Give that wonderful Mom of yours a hug for me, ok? And one for you too!!

for some reason, when I came to your blog earlier, this post wasn't up yet (well, it was, but oddly enough, my computer wasn't showing it- it does that a lot to me. It must take longer to get to Alaska). So I just left a comment on your last post. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I wrote a story about you and me in your mom's blog (as a comment).
Love you!

Hi! This is AuthorElf, BookFreak's cousin. As you have probably noticed, Book hasn't posted in some time, and I think she needs some encouragement. If you have the time, it would be great if you could write an encouraging note to Book and PM it to me. I'll paste it into an email and send it to her. Thanks!

Hey, how did the cake turn out? How come you never comment on my blog- ever? and did all of Ryann's friends keep you up all night? Also, I think you should come visit us- I miss you too much. I made a carrot cake last night too. I thought of you. Only, I haven't frosted mine yet. Charley HATES fake frosting. It's time for you to blog again. If you say you don't have time I'm going to hack into your account and blog for you. I'm tired of reading about your valentine's day. It was cute the first 12 times.
