so last night, we decided to have a little girls night rendezvous.
marissy got tickets for love happens at the dollar and we were so excited to watch jennifer anniston and we all got into the durango and headed to smiths to get fizzy lemonade and swedish fish to smuggle into the movie.
everything was going just great until we attempted to exit the smith's parking lot and the durango died.
mariss tried and tried, but it would not turn over.
all five of us said a quick prayer and then seconds later, a sweet little apx selling-fake true religion wearing-cowboy booted byu student came and tried to help.
we all got out, except mariss, and he pushed the durango to the back of the parking lot and then attempted to jump the battery.
no success.
he even got into marissa's seat and tried his own luck at revving the gas, but still, the durango was not going to come back to life.
this sweet helping man then left, and told us to try starting it in ten minutes once the battery had time to recuperate or something.
so he drove off in his mazda-6 and we sat there for a while and then as a couple minutes passed and we wanted to try again, we realized that
we did not have the keys.
we searched everywhere, on the ground, on the seats, behind the seats, and then we realized
our helper man accidently stole the keys to the durango.
so here we are, all five of us girls, in a broken down durango, with the windows rolled down, with no keys and no way to contact this helpful stranger.
pretty much helpless.
mariss made some phone calls, only to find out that the spare keys to the durango were currently lost, and basically we were out of luck.
so we decided that our sweet helpful stranger would probably realize he accidently stole our keys within the hour, and so we should just wait it out in the parking lot.
so we ordered some papa johns pizza, played the marry-do-or-die game, ate a lot of swedish fish, and patiently waited for our helper man to return.
two hours later, a large pizza and order of bread sticks later, and a visit from marissa's bitter brother later, the mystery helper returned and apologized for accidently snatching the keys.
needless to say, we missed our movie.
but had quite an adventure in exchange.


alpha: i have really great people in my life.
delta: my room is a mess. seriously.
