Wonder Woman

Okay, I was thinking of something to write. So here goes............
A while back I thought I was Wonder Woman, or Super Woman, whatever. I went to Sandia Casino to meet a friend or my family. It was for lunch. I go there often with my family. Anyway, I was there to eat with someone. I pulled into this parking space on the west lot, got out of my car and was ready to head for the stairs. All of a sudden the truck next to me started rolling out of it's spot!!!! (there was no one in the truck!!) What to do??? I just screamed out, "someone help me!!" NO ONE HEARD ME!!!!! All I knew was that poor car behind it was going to get smashed!! So what do I do??? I ran over to the truck and tried to open the door and it was locked! So I just pulled on the door handle hoping that my super strength would stop it from rolling into that car! Boy was I wrong. It kept going!!!! OMG!!! What are those people going to think when they come out of the casino (hopefully they won enough money to not worry too much!!!) Ha! Anyway, I was able to stop it from rolling too hard into the car. (After all, I do have some sort of super strength!!) I just let it roll till it barely bumped it and left it like that. Nothing else I could do. I got the license plate of the car and went inside and told security what had happened. Pretty soon you could hear the announcement, "Will the owner of such and such a car, NM license #, please report to the Player's Club. And will the owner of such and such vehicle, license # please report to the Player's Club." I don't know what happened with that as I was already in line to eat and really didn't worry much about it.

Driving in Bernalillo

One evening I was driving back home from Bernalillo, NM. I was heading east on that highway that comes in from Cuba (can't think of the name of it or number!!) Anyway, I was coming up to the intersection by the Giant gas station when I noticed this car with it's turn signal on. For some reason I knew it wasn't going to be turning. There was a pick-up right next to it. Then the light turned green and both vehicles took off but that car was going to hit the pick-up, which I don't think the driver knew it. But somehow the driver in the car swerved back into his lane and went too far to the right. First thing I thought was 'a drunk driver.' I couldn't think of the number you call to report drunk drivers. I just dialed some number and the phone kept ringing so I thought it was the wrong one. Then I was wondering if it was ok to use the cell phone while driving in Bernalillo. So I kept my eye on that car and wasn't about to pass it. The driver kept swerving back and forth, into the other lane and then back to his. We were coming up to the next traffic light and there were cars waiting for the red light but this guy kept going and I don't know how he missed all those parked cars, but he did. He went into the intersection and mussed those cars that were there. He lucked out and was now in the opposite direction. I don't know if anyone else tried to call the DWI line but I had to wait at the light and lost track of that car as it headed east. I don't know where he ended up as I didn't see anything on the way up to I-25. Didn't see any car on the interstate heading back into Albuquerque that seemed to be swerving. I don't know what happened to that person. I don't even know who was driving or what kind of car it was. That was pretty scary, especially in that intersection. I was sure there was going to be a big crash. Luckily no one was hurt.

October 2009

This is the year that Juella turns 21. Well, she did turn 21 one week ago. Anyway, she moved out of her mom's apartment and lives with 2 of her best friends. So far they are getting along quite well. Juella took along her pets to live with. So far she has Jimmy, Brownie, Chocolate (my name for her cuz I don't remember her name!), and her newest pet, Mo Mo. Jimmy is the cat, Brownie and Chocolate are guinea pigs and Mo Mo is her dog. They all get along together. Will have to get pics of these guys to share. These guys live with other pets at that household and they all seem to get along. I think they added two more cats to their growing animal kingdom!
The Balloon Fiesta has come and gone! Some days were good, most seemed to be bad with the winds. I did go see the Glowdeo. Didn't really get to see the balloons up in the air much. Well, they seemed to have flown in the other direction from where I was. I was not ready to go to the other side to watch them! So I just watched them go away!! There were several accidents but none were fatal. I think that was on everyone's minds because whenever there was mention of an accident, first question was 'did anyone die?' One morning the pilots were told they can fly at their own risk as they cancelled all ballooning events due to the winds. That was the day several balloons were blown into the power lines and one landed at the airport on one of the runways. I think they got in trouble for doing that. But what else could they do? It's not like it's done all the time. Then there's Sandia Pueblo that said the balloonists could not take off on their land but they could land there. Hmmm. sometimes I wonder about these Pueblos.
The State Fair was in September. It was pretty much ok. For me now, it was, you've been to the fair once, you've seen it all. It really wasn't that interesting to me. It's always the same thing each year. Why go each year and spend more money that you could use in a more sensible place. The one thing that people do look forward to is the Navajo or Indian Taco (depends on who makes it!!) That, you don't find anywhere, but the fair. You can get your turkey legs, cotton candy and whatever else people go for any where else. The Indian Village is one of the more popular places because you can't get that kind of food or entertainment any where else but there. Now if you have friends that are Native Americans and can make such food, they you are in luck!!

It's About Time

Yeah, I've been lazy about updating my blog. Not much to say, I guess. When you lead a boring life, then there's nothing to say!!! Ohhhhhh, wait a minute! I don't have a boring life. You see, the reason I haven't updated my blog is because my life has been nothing close to boring. Not enough time to sit down and write something down. There aren't enough hours in a day for me!!! If you have any spare time to lend me, I could get much more done!!
Well, it's the middle of October and there's been lots of things going on. Maybe I will get some time to do some updating but can't make any promises. I will do the best that I can. So hopefully all will work out for me to get this thing going.
I've been enjoying reading other people's blogs. Some hadn't been writing either. So now that those people are updating theirs, then I better get to it too!!!
