So this.... Happened.

In my last post, I mentioned that a couple things happened last week that made me go, "Wow. I'm blessed, hawt dang!"

I didn't talk about them really because I didn't have pictures. But now I do! SO! I'mma tell you.


The first good thing that happened... Was actually a week and a half ago. But anyway, I ordered a bracelet and it didn't arrive when it was supposed to, (no big deal, misunderstanding. I was actually fine with it.) But when the package arrived, I opened it up, and besides the bracelet there was also this necklace with my name on it.

MY NAME WAS ON A NECKLACE AND I DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR IT AND IT SORT OF MADE MY WEEK.

thanks, dear. :)



And then Kit, Amy, and I got lifetime Front Sight memberships for free. Those things cost a fortune usually, and because we know people we got them for free. It was so awesome! FRONT SIGHT.

All the happy!!!!

I'M GONNA SHOOT STUFF. WHOOOOOOOOOO!


Another epic thing was that we finally freaking got WIFI.

 FINALLY

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! I'm not gonna lie, after the guy who figured out why it wasn't working left, I did a little dance of joy in our flat because... we haven't WiFi for a good, um... six months, and that's a long time, folks. So yeah, I can finally blog at my own place and the novelty of this makes me flail a little.



But hands down, the best thing that happened last week was the biggest shock. 

Let me set it up for you, kay?

It was almost closing time at the flower shop, and Amy and I were the only ones there, getting ready to start locking doors and doing the cash out. I peered outside and I saw my brother's car pull in to the parking lot, followed like five seconds later by this lovely Land Rover Discovery, (Which.... as most of you know, are kind of my dream cars.)

So anyway, people pile out and Joe came in with Maria, and Kat, and Jess (who's cute). He hands Amy and I this little package, and inside are two sets of keys.


Yeah, you guessed it. My brother, (who is more awesome than your brother) bought us a Landy.


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGH!

WE HAVE A LANDY. AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL AND SHINY AND.... OURS.


It was seriously the most unexpected and insane thing that's ever happened to me..... And it took me a little while to wrap my head around it. Just... still kind of speechless. How do you even go about being properly thankful for that?



Meet Jarvis. 


Jarvis is beautiful. 


Jarvis is fabulous, even when we have to put gas in it. 


Jarvis is our precious!! AAAAAAH, I'm still just sort of having a hard time comprehending that he's ours.


So.. ehem. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Joey! Best surprise ever! You are the coolest and most awesome big brother ever, and... and....! Just yes. Love ya. :)


Did anything good happen to you guys lately, or am I alone in my happiness? Let me knoooow.


Cheers!

  1. Wow! That is so awesome! If someone just gave me my dream car like that I don't think I'd know what to do either (except drive it, ha! of course! ;). But really. That's amazing! I honestly wouldn't know how to thank someone for that. I would probably just wildly and flailingly thank them profusely every time I saw them until they got annoyed and finally told me to "stop doing that," in which I would meekly subside with a final, but subdued "Thank you."

    And grin like an idiot. (I am good at that.)

    I think one of the best things that happened recently was that it snowed last week (which never happens), and so the college was closed. Which meant that I had a whole week to study for a test, instead of just the one or two days heads up that our professor gave us. :P Yes, he's incredibly informative like that.

    1. Right? I probably stood stock still for like ten seconds until the realization hit me hard. lol. But yeah, it's so fantastic and amazing, and I just want to drive and drive and go somewhere on a picnic or something. :) (I might take your advice and just start thanking him all the time haha.)

      Oh I grin aallll the time, and I vacillate between going, "JARVIS!!!!!" and patting it's nose while fondly calling it Baby.

      Oooh, snow is fun. We normally get a lot, but it's been a really dry winter, so I'm grouchy when other people get snow and we're still sitting here in the 50*s. (But hey, the extra time to study must have been a freaking blessing, like, "HA TAKE THAT, PROFESSOR!" lol

  5. Aww, Shaylynn is a sweetie :) Her jewelry is awesome and someday I'll buy something! What bracelet did you order?

    Yay for lifetime subscriptions! I need to learn how to use a gun....

    YOU HAVE WIFI NOW?! *joins in the dancing* Hallelujah! I SO HAPPY! Hehe, I like how your minion is right next to your Evil Plans journal XD That's perfect.

    Your brother IS awesome! Oh my gosh. I don't know how well I would be able to wrap my head around that either! I'd be pinching myself repeatedly :D My brother is pretty awesome at gift giving so I can't complain. He just hasn't remembered to drop off my keys yet, okay? :D

    The pic of you guys at the gas station is ADORBS and Jarvis is beautiful!

    Nothing bad has happened lately, which is always good.......My boss told me that I work too hard last week, which made my day. I like feedback from bosses. Especially when it's compliments.
    Ummmm, Robert and I made our very first BIG, non-thrifted furniture purchase a month ago! Two extremely comfortable recliners that will be OURS in 2 more weeks! I can't wait. My back needs it.

    So yeah, I'm pretty happy with life right now :)
