Bits and bites

Left to right, top to bottom: Strawberry shortcake, empty fuel tank alert, new wallet, tiramisu!

***

It was my first time getting the empty fuel tank alert, and I think I might've screamed. It was completely my fault, of course; I knew I was low on fuel the night before, but then we got lost (you know the drill), and by the time I got back home, I was so pooped that I'd clean forgotten about it. Until the next day when I was driving, and that orange light popped out, scaring the living daylights out of me. I pulled over at the first chance I got and turned off my engine. It made zero sense, yes. But I only realised it when I was sitting in the car, stuck in the middle of nowhere, with the engine switched off, so.

Also, my friends will all be glad to know that I got a wallet for my birthday; they've been trying to make me get rid of my furry green pouch since... well, since the moment they saw it. I hope you guys are happy now! I still don't see what was so bad about my purse, but it was getting a bit flat and dirty, and I was thinking of throwing it into the washing machine anyway, so it's just as well. :)

X (taking a bite of the strawberry shortcake): "Mmm, I love strawberry shortcake!"

Me: "Can I try some?"

X: "Sure. Oh, but can you take all the strawberries? I hate strawberries!"

Me: "???"

Theorem: When the low fuel indicator lights up, you can get from one end of Singapore to the next and drop into the sea with the engine still running.

Assumptions: 1) No traffic jam, 2) You take the shortest as the crow fly route, 3) Drive below 90 km/h...

Note: Said theorem's proof has been executed in at least two models of Japanese family cars over a period of 5 yrs by yours truly (and friends) on more than one occasion with success.

And yes, green is such a hideous color for wallets. Green = slime, radioactive bad stuff, algae, fungi etc etc no? Gross...

Woof!: I miss him too.

Vandice: I think the burning question I have is WHY WOULD ANYONE RISK IT?! Why didn't you stop for gas?!

And green is my favourite colour, so thanks.

I was doing a search on the song which has the refrain that you've titled your blog, so I went ahead and read a little and I just want to say that its so wonderful to know that there are other Christian blogs out there! My name is Lisa, here is a link to my blog http://www.crazylife.org/users/sassychick50317/

I hope I haven't creeped you out.
