Crashing

it feels like so much has happened since i last updated. i was home for a week following hawaii and then spent a week in cali with dane... one of his good friends from home had died in a car accident and we went down there for the funeral. on the plus side, the byu volleyball team was playing uc irvine that week so we were able to attend that as well.
unfortunately, dane wanted to go home sat night (against my, my moms, and his dad's wishes). i knew i would be driving the whole way (dane gets tired and he was taking nightquill) and i didnt want to drive all night. the car we took down (dane's roommates) had terrible tires... so much so that when it rained in cali i was sliding everywhere so i didnt want to chance bad weather. also there was a storm coming in that night and my mom and his dad didnt want us to hit it. well we did. i made it mesquite nevada with no problems but it was 3 in the morning and i wanted to take a quick sleep. i slept for 3 hours and when i woke up the storm had caught up to us. i got through the pass ok but around st george i ran into some serious snow and hit a guard rail. it put a large scratch down the drivers side. i was so shook up when i got to a gas station i bought 3 tires... the guy said i shouldnt go out again on the old ones (they were really bad). the new tires were great and i had no more problems. unfortunately the first estimate is 2,500. suck. i definately do not need this.
dane and are aren't doing well either. my luck needs to change. i can't take much more. i need to make some changes in my life. its hard to know where to begin. it will take a lot of effort... and that seems weird to me. its so hard for me to make changes. why??!!
work is busy, i may update again in my life.
Quote of the Day: The city of Los Angeles once named a street after Jack Bauer in gratitude for his saving the city several times. They had to rename it after people kept dying when they tried to cross the street. No one crosses Jack Bauer and lives.
