Back in Dover

Yup. I'm back. I'm becoming a whiz at driving back and forth from DE to CT. This time I actually made the trip in 3 hours and 20 minutes AND I stopped to get gas. I felt like my car had wings. Thankfully, my brother let me borrow his EZPass even though when I was going through one of the tolls, the cash line was actually SHORTER than the EZPass line! I decided to just pay the stupid $1.00 to get through faster, so when I started to get out f the line I realized why the line was so long. As it turns out, people were looking at a car crash that has just happened. A car must have gone out of control and hit the left guard rail and then flipped over. The car was actually resting on it's side! The guy had gotten out and was sitting against the guard rail and there were also people standing around him that has stopped to help. He looked very shaken up of course, but miraculously he was alive and didn't look too hurt. I don't think any other car was involved in the crash either which is also a miracle. Not long after that, I was weeding through traffic and as I went to change lanes, the car in front of me decided to stop faster than I thought he was and I was THISCLOSE to hitting the trailer he was pulling.

I thought I'd share that story since all I seem to do lately is share pictures. I was tagged by the lovely Lindsay to do a randomness survey so I'll probably post that later today or tomorrow (click on her name to see her blog, she's also an AF girlfriend and her blog is one of my faves!)

DB went down to D.C. to spend the weekend with a friend and watch football (ugh, guys! soo glad I'm not there!), so I won't have him in my hair while I do some housework and errands. Although you all know I'd rather have him in my hair than anywhere else...

*Update 1:00 pm
Just got back from running around town and I am so mad that I didn't bring my camera! I ALWAYS have my camera on me and since today I was carrying a purse that is heavy all by itself, I decided to not bring it. My poor little town is SWARMING with race fans!! I'm going to go out later just to take pictures... I'm such a nerd (right babe?!)

Ahh the race fans. I've been to a Nascar race or two, but just so we are clear, I ONLY enjoyed it for the tailgating and peoplewatching factor. I swear!

Wait, is my red-neck showing? Dangit, I hate it when that happens...
