Nothing like a brisk run in the morning!

I had a rather odd/frightening experience this morning.

I walked out of my apt building, only to come face to face with a very LARGE goose.

We stared down eachother for a second, and then all of the sudden it opened it mouth and started making this hideous noise and heading towards me.

Not one to stick around and find out what would happen next, I immediately started running for my life.

(And wouldn't you know it, I was parked almost to the opposite end of my building, thanks to getting home late the night before.)

I ran to my truck as fast as I could hearing it chase me as I ran, hit the automatic unlock button and hopped inside, clutching my huge purse to me. If I had been thinking straight I could have just hit the darned thing with my purse. That would have stunned it for a second at least!

I look out my passenger side window and there is the goose staring at me! It had evil eyes. I think it was glaring the death glare.

So I think to myself, HAH! I will show you stupid feathered friend, I'll start my truck and scare the goose poop right out of you.

Great idea in theory.

The Goose was not scared by my truck, but it was very angry.

I started backing up and it started flapping its HUGE wings and coming after the front of my truck! I managed to swerve by it, and drove off. I mean I do have a truck but that was a stinking HUGE goose. How would I explain that to the insurance company? Um, I'm sorry but this goose came after me and started attacking the hood of my truck. I had to be at work early and didn't have time to fight it off, so I just ran over it!

Yeah, PETA would be all over me..

I'm a slight bit afraid to go home tonight...

I love Jesus & Sephora!!

 I am not a morning person. There are very few things I will get up early for. Friday morning I got up while it was still dark outside. My alarm went off at 6:45 am and let me tell you I have not seen that time for a very very long while! However, something really exciting was happening that morning! Sephora came to Tippecanoe Mall! THATS RIGHT FOLKS SEPHORA!!!!!!!! I love me some Sephora! Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is amazing, and in reality I spend less on Sephora products than trying to find something that works with my wacky skin at the drug store. I have been looking forward to this for weeks. I set my alarm early and ran out the door in a hurry! I got to the mall at 8:02 am. Sephora was opening at 10. I was not the first person there! I was about the 12'th person there and at first we were all smushed into this doorway which was really not comfortable at all. Thankfully the kind people at JcPenney let us inside the store so we could line up outside of Sephor...

Who needs a Knuckle anyway?!

 If you are squeamish and do not like pictures of fingers stitched up, now would be the time to close this post and come back another day!  I put this picture of my struggling get up for my shower first so that no one has to see the stitches if they don't want to. Call me kind :) Also, this get up did not work at keeping my finger dry.  So last night i was opening a box of books, and accidentally opened my knuckle as well. It's funny, it didn't really hurt at the moment. I felt it of course, but it wasn't horrible pain. Blood started gushing and I ran for the bathroom to get some tp on it and bandaids. I do NOT do well with blood and seeing all of it made me a tad bit light headed. I managed to find some gauze and tape and after looking at my finger and noticing that i could see INSIDE my finger and the knuckle skin was WIDE open, I almost passed out. hahahaha.. it was GROSS! I dr'd up my finger and tried to decide if it would heal on it's o...
