Okay "crash" isn't the right word, because I didn't technically "hit" anything (or anyone, thank God). But I did try to stop at a red light and instead ended up careening madly off the road, over the curb and onto the front lawn of a prison!! A PRISON...!!!!!!

At first I thought a patch of ice was the culprit, but it turned out that my right front tire burst. How, I don't know! But I am okay, and the car is okay (except for the tire, oops), and therefore everything is okay. TK and a very nice man from the Bank of America helped me change the tire and everyone got home safe.

Yikes!

Good thing I'm getting my first paycheck Friday. New tire for the baby!

I HAVE A CAR!!!!

Because the publishing scene has been so sucky lately, I had to get myself a "real" job. But in order to hold down a job I needed a way to get to it, so my parents found me this adorable silver PT Cruiser off Cragislist! Isn't it cute!? My folks are so awesome I love them so much <3333

Some of you may remember that I didn't get my driver's liscence until two years ago, so this is my first time having a car of my own. It's weird to go from working at home for 5 years and then suddenly driving myself to a job every other day. Of course for most people reading this, that is nothing special. BUT IT'S NEW FOR ME OKAY!?

And speaking of the job, I'm working part time at Gamestop. I've heard from others who've done it and didn't like it, but I've had a great experience so far. All the guys I work with are really cool and have been helping me out a lot. Even when I almost broke the printer >.> That printer is my nemesis, I swear.

In other news, I've been working on a new writing project while I continue to push the one I finished last April. It's a dark, Sleepy Hollow-ish old American horror story (but with less Johnny Depp - sad, I know). I'm hoping to keep it much shorter than my last story so it's more appealing to a publisher. Wish me luck~

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
