I have a few funny stories to tell. The first involves my face. I recently was "hired" to sing in a church choir up here in Boone. Well, on Sunday, this elderly lady walked up to me and said "Do you have a birth defect on your face?" ....and I'm so not kidding. She meant birth mark....but totally said DEFECT. So I said Yes....because I knew she was about to tell me to wipe the chocolate off of my chin (I've gotten that many times before). Then, as if that wasn't enough, she starts telling me that I can have it removed, or go to the skin doctor on "so and so street" and get my skin blended or something...then comes her showing me her age spots. I just found this funny. I mean, I've been told that I've got something on my chin, but never asked if I have a birth defect on my face. Haha, it just kills me.
This whole gas thing is just annoying. Boone is a small town, with a TON of people....whether it be people that live in town, out in the hills, or the thousands of college students...there just aren't enough gas stations. So I waited in line for FOREVER today to get gas. To make things just peachy, no one was allowed to use their credit card at the pump, they had to go in for whatever reason....AND the man infront of me was driving a truck that was big enough to park 6 lawn mowers on the back....seriously. He only had one lawn mower in the back....and a good many gas cans. So I got to sit there and wait. After my insomnia did me such a favor last night and I had just gotten out of being in class ALL day running off of maybe 3 hours of sleep, I was a little less than pleasant while watching this man fill up his stupid gas cans. BAH! Anyway, that's not the good part. The good part is when my friend Tracy went to get gas. He said there was a LONG line and some extremely brave woman nosed her car up in between the two cars at the front of the line so that she would be very next to pump her gas. Well since she passed about 30 people, obviously it wasn't a good situation. Apparently when she pulled up to the pump and got out of her car to pump her gas, the woman on the other side was mad. She was in her 60's and sporting a lexus. This woman proceeded to walk to the other side of the island to the lady who had passed everyone and punched her dead in the face. Right on the nose. HA! This apparently knocked her off of her feet and the whole crowd of people watching and waiting that she had passed...were applauding. Lexus lady turned around and got in her car and left, while the moron picked herself up off of the pavement and went ahead and pumped her gas with a bloody nose! I'm just surprised she touched the gas pump after that! Haha...the story alone just cracks me up!...Ah, if I had only been there!! :)

Oh my gosh!! That is hysterical and crazy about the fight at the pumps!!! People are CRAZY about gas! We should start driving french fry grease fueled cars! People are OBSESSED!
We have gas in Troutman (or we did earlier) so we're okay. I was actually half full but decided to fill up-just in case. I was third in line and waited about ten minutes mid afternoon. Not too bad! I would be scared to pass thirty cars..wow!
