I was coming home from Luckys last night and I saw the vehicle come across the median, and the passenger landed infront of my car, thankfully I wasn't going fast at all b/c the I slowed down when I saw the headlights coming my way.  Onstar you rock for aiding in such a fast response time, I'll definitely say it's the best money I ever spent, although it wasn't fast enough.  I sat on the road with the passenger that did not make it until the paramedics came.  It was a sight that I will never forget, telling him to hang on as he was slipping away.  Please remember to say a prayer for his friends and family and the other two people involved.

One dead, one critical in wreck


Staff photo | David Reynolds A wrecked Isuzu SUV sits in the southbound lanes of College Road on Sunday night.One person is dead and another in critical condition after a wreck on South College Road Sunday night, officials said.

About 10 p.m., Wilmington police officers were trying to figure out what caused the two-vehicle collision, though they had no independent witnesses, said Sgt. D. Yanacek, of the Wilmington Police Department. The three people involved were at New Hanover Regional Medical Center, he said.

Authorities were called to the scene north of the intersection of South College Road and 17th Street at 9:37 p.m.

The windshield of a blue Isuzu SUV was smashed in and two beer bottles lay on the road next to the wrecked vehicle.

A second SUV, with less front end damage, sat facing it. Yanacek said he didn't yet know who was at fault in the crash. The person who died was a male passenger in the blue Isuzu SUV, Yanacek said. The driver of the Isuzu was in critical condition. The driver of the other SUV was taken to the hospital with injuries, which authorities did not believe were life-threatening.

I found this in my inbox as I was cleaning it out...it always makes me smile.

I may be a little strange at times...I might really like being lazy and complain about everything...I might be the person that likes to get as much sleep as possible but if I could wake up like that everyday I think I could deal with only like three hours of sleep.

Last night...I definitely got served a little bit too much of that poison...but we had to go all out...geeze the Turd won again!  Four straight weeks...either the questions are that easy...not necessarily the case last night (with the exception of the 3rd round according to my team mates)...or everyone else is just that dumb...or they just don't have the ability to pull random facts out of their ass quite like we do haha. 

My goal for tonight...NO ALCOHOL...haha...so that way after I bust my ass playing volleyball (which we all know I will do b/c let's face it the last time I played was probably for like 10min in hs gym class) I will be able to sleep tonight...never can really sleep when there's alcohol in my system...don't get me wrong I'll want to...it's just not going to be an all night kinda sleep...little nap here, little nap there...but like I said before, the out come was well worth it. 

Coffee is wanderful...ya know...I love coffee...I'm procrastinating getting started b/c right now all I want to do is drink my coffee and enjoy the nice quiet whatever of the micro lab...Kelly...get your ass back to work...it's way too quiet when you're not here...what am I going to do while you're on your cruise? Forget how to talk to people?  haha  Oh well, guess I've procrastinated long enough...but I'm taking my coffee with me in the lab...it's only bacteria anyways...I don't understand why people are so jumpy about the whole issue haha.  Hope everyone has a thrilling Thursday...if you feel like a good laugh come out to Capt Bills tonight and laugh at me trying to play v-ball

Ok so I just heard the funniest thing ever...it's out of context so for those of you that don't know anything about anything then you won't get where it came from....but for the rest of us normal people lmao...."if you get a phone call at 3 in the morning it better be for SEX!" Totally true...

I totally couldn't help but share that.  Hope everyone had a great day!

Ok so just to clear some things up a bit...my favorite color is pink, my favorite wine is duplin black river red, I'd rather be hot than cold and I'd rather be on the water than on land any day.  I'd rather live in a small town where I don't have to hear sirens every time I turn around and I'd rather live alone than have a room mate....I hate taking out the trash, I like to cuddle on the couch but yet not such a big fan while I'm trying to sleep....I was raised to be independent...it's very rare that I ask for help b/c I'm hard headed and extremely stubborn like my dad, yes I'm admitting it.  I'd rather sit outside on my balcony then watch tv...I love the sound of the ocean but hate sand.  I sometimes dream in spanish and wake up wandering what the heck happened haha...I'd rather be with someone that drives me up the wall then someone that is just there....however, I don't "fight for love" I believe that if you want me bad enough you won't make me and if not then it's not worth my time.  My favorite phrase is 2.5 seconds.....I often eat cheese with my crackers but don't like to anything when I'm drinking my one glass of wine a day.  Call me white trash but I'd rather be in my jeans and a t-shirt playing in the mudd then in a dress with my hair and nails done...although I will admit I've changed alot since I moved to the big city of wilmington (hey it's way bigger compared to columbia haha).  When I moved here I was very nieve...everyone was good and no one would ever intentionally hurt anyone...some lessons you have to learn the hard way I suppose.  My family is my life, don't ask me to choose between you and them b/c you won't like the answer.  My friends are right below my family...once again the few people that I call true friends...don't ask me to choose...I'd take their back any day and I have complete acess to lots of scary shit.  (not that i'd ever do anything like that ) haha j/k.  Above all other things is my love for God...he's been there with me through the worst of times and the best...through his love I've gotten over many things.  Like everyone else on this planet...I'm human and I've encountered hardship...not as bad as some others and for that I am thankful...I feel fortunate to be able to enjoy life's little luxuries like tv in bed, running water, a roof over my head and the fact that I've never gone hungry for lack of food.  I have many things to be thankful for...the love my god, my family and my friends are the things that matter most to me.  I finally realized here recently that life is way too short to hold on to stupid grudges that don't really matter in the long run.  Live, laugh and learn but above all of this love like there is no tomorrow

Yay! I got a new car...I finally got it!  Mom and Dad were there to share the experience with me although they didn't get there in time to see alllll of the craziness...I was just really glad that they were there.  I might just be a sap but I like it when I get to share  moments like that with them...the moments where I realize that hey I'm grown up  still a little bit crazy to think about.  I'm so excited though...it's all new and wanderful the whole experience of it gives me butterflies to think about.  Me and my dad we've had our moments and God knows he has done a lot in the past that some would see as unforgivable but ya know what he's my dad and I would not be who I am today without him...I look up to him although I don't always agree with him.  Family is family, they will always be there for you no matter what may come...after all blood is thicker than water.  Now me and my mom we've pretty much always gotten along well except for when it comes to the guys I've dated...haha...she never really liked any of them.  Which is understandable, b/c now I look back and I'm like why?  Never thought I would say it at the time but I'm sure saying it now haha.  Right now I'm still planning on moving home in the next three years...but I'm not going to say that IS what I'm going to do b/c I don't know what is going to happen between now and then...all I know is life is too short to hold on to grudges...I'm taking things one day at a time and living for now

Ok so I am currently cracking up!!! Last night I had a dream that Aaron's (wilmo aaron) only job was to drive around my grandparents...I mean we're talking driving ms daisy kinda driving lol...so anyways it was really random b/c he was taking them to the fair...I was riding along then when we got there my grandfather decided he didn't want to go anymore so they dropped me off and off they went...I was just like what?  Then after that I turned around and I was back in middle school and I was being chased by a lion....I mean let me tell ya the dreams I had last night were just a bit weird...but of course I got the lion under control when I became Indiana Jones and got my whip out haha...I just kind of chuckled to myself b/c let's face it if we ever figure out the inner workings that is my subconcious lord help us all lmao! Oh then since I tend to tell most people when I have a dream about them I went to his page and found out that he moved in with his ex...no I'm not a mystalker I hadn't looked since the last time I saw him...but it's fucking halarious to me how you can go from hating someone to living with them plus to top it off he bought a fucking huge ass boat...that cracks me up...well good on 'em b/c he said he wanted one...I'm still chuckling though b/c it's just typical.  Speaking of boats can't wait for this weekend so I can go out in a boat...looking forward to it :) Well until next time!

What a wanderful weekend...so beautiful...too bad I've got to work all weekend boo on that.  I even had tickets to the chowder cookoff and everything...sigh...oh well no chowder for me.  Sadly enough I'm not even doing anything tonight...nope I am currently sitting in my house listening to some 80s music while I wait for the dryer to quit so I can change over the next load before I go to bed.  Although I did make cabbage tonight so I'd have leftovers for lunch this week...that excites me, which is also sad haha.  Oh well, today I basically got paid to sit around and watch tv b/c I watched five episodes of Sam Who and three and a half episodes of Lipstick Jungle...both good shows by the way.  Oh joy a Cher song just came on...lol...that brings back some fun memories of when my sister was the biggest fan on the planet and had one of her cds on repeat constantly...haha...good times .  Ya know it's my own fault that I'm sitting here by myself cruising myspace on a Saturday night...I had someone call and wanted to hang out but idk...I kind of wanted to have me time...lazy time...haha....and yet I often wander why I'm single hmmmm...lol.  I'm totally aware that I sabotage most of my relationships...we've come to call it the Mo affect...I'm working on it though...I guess I just hadn't met someone worth sticking around for....we shall see.  Anywho, the dryer cut off so yay...switching out laundry time! lol...I'm such a loser.  But then again I'm a loser that has almost achieved her dream...so close...and probably will be fulfilled within the next year!!!! I totally rock my own world haha

Wow what a St. Patty’s day....not comparable at all to last year but then again you can’t beat perfection...Jillian and I celebrated our one year anniversary as friends on this night by going on the St. Patty’s day bar crawl...what fun it was...sadly I have to work tomorrow...hence why I’m home writting this blog.  But I just wanted to comment on the fact that I missed my Dan tonight...so sad you couldn’t make it.   But then again you could always make it up to me next year.  haha.  Hope everyone has a happy and safe St. Patty’s day...I’m off to shower then to bed...up at 5ish and back to work tomorrow.  Luvs to all!
