the dangers of driving at night

i'm home again for the weekend. it feels good to be home. free laundry, free food, good company. . . you can't go wrong.

so, i decided to drive out here a few days ago for the long weekend (classes were canceled at the last minute b/c CUI decided to be politically correct for a change & honor MLK Day). i was originally going to drive out super early saturday morning, but as i was packing up my car at 8pm on friday night, i decided to forgo said plan & leave that night instead. BAD IDEA! we've already discussed the perils of my near-death accidents and/or bad decisions. this was is definitely on the list.

it started out great. i drove through riverside and hemet just fine, but once 11pm hit, i just couldn't seem to focus. i'm pretty sure i dozed off for a few seconds at the wheel. i ended up stopping about half a dozen times to wake myself up. i finally got home around 2:30am (AZ time) & went straight to bed.

lesson learned: kelsey should NOT my no means drive at night without adult supervision!!!

this week is my interview for internship! i'm so excited to finally have my interview, but i'm a bit nervous about being grilled on church doctrine & verbally expressing my ideal church or job description. i'll let ya'll know how it goes. prayers would be awesome, though!

here are the news briefs of the week:

i got my hair cut. just a trim, but it still feels weird when i run my fingers through.

vote for obama. he rocks!

jesse & bethany are ringing in their new engagement with a fun-filled (somewhat of an excuse to get together for a beer) party at bj's monday night. yay for engagement parties!

happy birthday, alyssa! my sister's another year older: 19! i feel so old.

i am really enjoying the new mac commercials. they still make me laugh.

school is great! it's my last semester & i really like my hebrews class. dr. mueller rocks my face off!

i hope san diego makes it to the super bowl.

weight watchers lasagna is super nasty. oh, and i've lost my first 10 lbs so far!

that's it.
