Tornados and Car Crashes... read on!

I thoroughly enjoy making lists.  A lot.  So if you'll excuse me, I think I'll make one right here! :) A list of why my life is strange, but that could get pretty long so I think I'll just limit it to 3... haha.
A. St. Louis is not a dangerous place but where does the tornado decide to hit? St. Louis.  And not just anywhere in St. Louis- specifically Maryland Heights.  Where do I live?? Maryland Heights.  Of course.
B.  Things tend to happen to me.  Like the fact that I was driving home in the rain when I get hit by another car.  And then the tornado warnings started to go off.  AGH! WHY LIFE? WHY?!
C.  Oh! Did I mention the fact that MY CAR WOULDN'T START AFTER THAT? So the police man calls the tow truck.  And that was all fine and dandy, but as soon as the tow truck arrives my car decides to start.  Yup.  Story of my life.

That all happened Friday.

my not too awesome blog...

I've traveled all around the world.  I've been to Australia, El Salvador, Guatamala, Spain, France, Canada (not too foreign there), Italy, Luxembourg, Belgium, and many others and when do I choose to start a blog? Nope.  Not when I'm going there.  Only when I'm stuck in good ol' St. Louis.  Of course.  So you can hear about my oh so interesting life.  But mostly this blog is for me to write down thoughts, feelings, and when I'm sitting in St. Louis Bread Co. waiting for three hours to go to work...  But we won't mention that that is part of the reason I am getting this thing. Lets see here, what should I start with? Oh.  I'll start by telling you I recently acquired and murdered my squirrel.  I named him Hammy.  You are probably wondering or thinking- Huh?  Thats kind of what I'm thinking too.  This squirrel was following my Dad around as he was working on a lawn one day so my Dad took him home for me! I was so excited we put him in a box and I gave him some milk.  The next morning Hammy couldn't move.  I was so worried so I read up online (something I should have done before I gave him the milk) of what sort of foods he should eat, especially as a baby.  Apparently Pedialyte was a good idea so I went and bought that,  he seemed to be improving and was sitting on my shoulder but he wasn't as energetic as other squirrels.  My mistake for not noticing.  I woke up the next morning to a dead Hammy.  Thats it.  He only spent two days with me and he still broke my heart! Can you believe it?  Well I have work in a bit, but here are some pictures of Hammy!
Me and Hammy :'(

How can you resist a creature so cute?

But I do tend to have more "interesting" stories... so I'll try to not make it boring for you by throwing a few of those in :P.  Well I don't really know how to end this post.  So. uh. BYE!
