I've had a kind of eventful couple of months - mainly because my car got stolen. Turns out Kia's are easy to steal, who knew. (Well, I actually did know that by the time this happened, but I didn't know it before I bought the car!) So dealing with that was, um, not fun. BUT the police found the car - all the thief had done to it was rip out the ignition, along with a bit of body damage. It's all fixed now, and we just had to pay the deductible, of course. And I got a call a week or so ago saying they even caught the guy who stole it. Hope he's enjoying the county jail.
We went over to my sister's for Thanksgiving and watched movies - a couple of movies Rob had seen earlier this year, "Companion" and "Drop" - his tastes and mine don't always line up, but I liked both of those, and so did everybody else, fortunately.
P. (my sister) wanted me to come back over Friday so we could watch the UT-A&M game, but I had to work. (She went to A&M & I went to UT, so rivalry week is always interesting.) A&M was ranked #3 and we were like, 15, so I said if I was a person who bet on sports I'd've been betting on A&M - which I guess is why I don't bet, because UT won, go figure. P. was trying hard to be a good sport about it, and I was trying hard not to rub it in too much, so we got through it without any major sisterly drama.
