Bad things come to those who try really hard.

Yeah. So, I have had a lot of things to write super awesome blogs about, but the moral support just wasn't there.

Well, actually Jon and I are in the midst of moving and we have just entered Stressville. Which leads me to my first vegan story of the day:
Exploding Cars.
Looks really cool in movies and TV, right? In real life, when you are traveling at midnight between Dayton and Cleveland, and the car starts to fill with smoke, it's just not that cool. Burning oil, transmission melt-downs, billowy white smoke; to me = Ford Explorer Explosions. All we wanted to do was safely arrive back in Cleveland with a trailer full of our belongings, you know, Hello Kitties and spice racks and stuff; is that too much to ask? 2 hours later, I peed on my feet, avoided death by axe murderer, and had an encounter with a friendly neighborhood firefighter (of whom did offer us a ride anywhere in the world in his fire truck, which was tempting, but we had to wait there for Jon's Civic to come rescue us.). Ford Explorer died that night, giving Jon's Dad the opportunity to buy another vehicle to haul our crap around in. We slept at a rest stop (under the watchful eye of Father Truck Driver) for 2 hours before making it back to Cleveland that night, finally arriving at about 6:30am. Then the Hurricane hit.

My Second Vegan Story of the Day involves a little girl, also known as previous me.
My maiden name received a Subpoena today. Apparently, when I got married and changed my last name, my old self decided to do some naughty and illegal things, like not pay her taxes. I was married in 2006, filed taxes jointly with Jon for that year, but for some reason RITA (the local take your money tax org.) decided I have 1 social security number, but split personalities, so I must pay local taxes twice. I don't know. They are pretty much the worst people I know. So, if in the near future, you try to call me and my phone goes straight to voicemail, the cops may have mistaken me for my other self and thrown me in the slammer. I hear there is no vegan jello in the slammer. Please help.


Vegan word of the day: Crumpet- A round soft, unsweetened bread, resembling a muffin, cooked on a griddle or often toasted, can be made vegan? A woman of loose morals, can be made vegan?
