Oh No!!!


Last Monday I had a Geography test and my professor let me take it later in the afternoon. I was supposed to be at her office at 4:30. When I got to the building I realized that I had five minutes to spare so I decided to use the Ladies Room. As I was walking out to wash my hands I leaned over to grab my back pack when my phone fell out of my pocket and into the toilet! NOOOOO!!! I just starred at the phone for a few seconds not knowing what to do. The first and only thing I could think of was DISEASE!!!! Hello, college campus, dirty toilets, eewww! For a second I considered leaving it. "Just break the wrist and walk away." But, then I thought Ryan would probably throw a fit if I gave up and left it. So, with much hesitation I quickly put my hand in the toilet (the water had already been flushed) and pulled out my phone.

Good thing I was the only one in the bathroom because I was whining and repeating "eeww, gross" the whole time. Once I had my phone I ran over to the sink and put it on a ledge under the mirror. I sat and washed my hands over and over for a long time with scalding hot water and mounds of soap. After I scrubbed my hands I looked at my phone for a second wondering what I should do with it. I didn't want to put in in my backpack while it was still dirty. I tried to turn it back on but it didn't work. So I did what any germ-a-phobic crazy girl would do... I washed my phone. Yes, I washed my phone with lots of soap and hot water! I figured the phone was a goner but at least it was clean when I put it in my backpack.

When I was done I ran to my professors office. Thankfully she had disinfectant wipes! I quickly took my phone apart and cleaned it again! When I got home Ryan could do nothing but tease me all night about washing my phone, but I feel justified in my actions! My phone isn't entirely broken because I can still text message but the sound does not work. So if your trying to get a hold of me don't call, just text! I still need to get a new phone. Ryan thinks that if I had not washed my phone then it would still work, but I still stand by my decision to wash my phone. I'm sure some of you would have done the same too!

New Background

First of all let me start by saying that the new James Bond movie is awesome! I don't care what the critics or anyone else says, I thought it was fantastic!! Now on to more important things... I'm sure all of you are wondering why I changed my blog background to this new checkerboard print. Ok, maybe some or all of you don't care what the background is, however I will help you understand the importance of it. If you were to pick up the last instalment of the Twilight series books "Breaking Dawn" you might recognize that this pattern is on the cover along with the two chess pieces. Why is this so important you ask? Just look below and you will see my last post about the Twilight movie! Yes, I'm a little consumed by my excitement for this movie! For all of you who don't share my excitement or who have not read the books, or do not agree with my comments from this post, please remove my name from your cell phone and delete my email address because we are no longer friends. -Sincerely, Ashley

Twilight!!! I know you are all excited!!!

Election Day!

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm happy to say that Election day is OVER!!!! Enough already!!!! There were pros and cons about the election but I wont go into all of them except for Proposition 8. Thank goodness that prop 8 passed and restored traditional marriage in California. It was a long hard fought battle but it worked! Great work to all of those who were involved!!!


On a different note... It is known that we have a friend who is a Democrat... Andy Fields. Andy has worked long and hard to get the votes in for Charlie Brown (No, not the cartoon) who is running as the democrat candidate in the 4th congressional district election. Our group went to visit the election night party to say hi to Andy and get a peak into the mysterious and confusing world of Democrats! We were still confused when we left! Just kidding! We still don't know who won between republican John McClintock or C-Brown. The results for now are beside the point. We just wanted to say congratulations to Andy no matter what happens!!! Now get some sleep and something to eat!




I just wanted to point out the two young girls on the right... Do they look underage to you? And what do they have in their hands?... Glasses of Wine! Great job Democrats... on promoting underage drinking.

The girl on the phone is clearly 14!
