So I might have Native American in me??

So this Thanksgiving I was at my grandma's house in Marshall, Texas and while at the table with my cousins, aunt and grandma and we were talking about something and it lead to us talking about our family and apparently my great great great great great great grandma was full blooded Native American. Sooo I guess that means that I have some in me?? If so that's whats up. My cousin started to work on a family tree so I might find out more later. I think the Native Americans my family came from is from Oklahoma. I wonder if I have enough Native American in me to get some money for school?? If so that would be ballin.

My "WTF" Saturday

This past saturday was crazy. It's a long story so let me get started. It started on friday night when I had pulled into the parking garge (Mattew Street) from getting my haircut at around 9:30. I parked my car, turned it off like I always do and nothing was wrong. I then came back 45 minutes later to my car to go to Tower to meet up with Matt and Stanley. When I got into the car and turned the key nothing came on.....not a thing....it was completely dead....not like car battery dead dead but a complete lock down dead. I couldn't even get my key out. So I call Matt and Stanley  and my co-worker Tiffany to see if they could help and when they got there we messed with it to see if we could get it to work but nothing happened. So I call UPD and they send one of the parking services guys out to my car to see if I need a jump. When he gets there he hooks up my car to his and jumps it and it comes on but when he took the plug off and I turned the car off and tried to turn it back on it went dead again. The parking service guy didn't know what was wrong so he jumped me again and I just got my car key out and locked the doors myself and just said I would wait till the next day (Saturday) to mess with it. Saturday comes and I go to eat with Tiffany at Harris and my dad calls me and tells me to just find someone to jump me and then go to Autozone to get a battery test and see whats wrong. After me and Tiffany get her car and then park it next to mine I then realizes that not only could I not get in my car with the remote but I couldn't get in with the key itself. So I call UPD again to see if they can get inside and they said they can't cause my windows are powered and it could be a liability but they do give me a number to a tow truck guy who could open it for me. I called the guy and he came and opened my car (for $35). After that me and Tiffany then went on to try to jump my car again so I could go to Autozone. She takes her cord and puts them on her battery but when she picks up the other end she touches them together and they spark in her hand which causes her to scream bloody murder in the garage. When that happened we both knew we couldn't use those plugs so she gets in her car to move her car its dead....just like mine but the only difference is that she can take her keys out...so there are two dead cars now. Oh by the way after I had called my dad after I got my car unlocked he told me he was on his way to San Marcos....from Arlington. So Tiffany calls around and finds one of her friends (Rachel Haverkorn and Sara Darby) that has another plug so we can try to start her car again. They get there and then hook up the plugs (no sparks this time) but nothing happens to Tiffany's car. I then call my dad (who is driving from Arlington to San Marcos) and he tells me to look in the fuse box to see if something was blown so I am now looking in the fuse box to see if I had blown a fuse and while I am doing this Sara's boyfriend and sidekick aka the magical white fairies come from nowhere and hop out there car with a tool kit tell Tiffany to pop her hood and then they just tighten her positive on her battery because apparently when she sparked the cords they loosened it which triggered her security which shut her car down . Then homeboy comes over to my car while I am still messing with my fuse box then just tightens my positive on my battery and my car magically comes on......WTF....we had been in that garage for 3 hours and they came in five minutes fixed both cars and then dipped......I didn't know what to say or think. Later we all went to Zookas then me and Tiffany went and saw unstoppable with Denzel Washington....it was alright but not worth 8 bucks.


Things learned from that day:

1. Mattew Street Garage is haunted
2. I learned how to check my fuses in my car
3. I will never take the sound of my car starting up for granted
4. Unstoppable is a stressful to watch
5. Denzel is still on point with the acting
6. Magic white fairies from mechanic heaven do exist

Something everyone should go do.......

Go watch a pee wee football game. Either flag or tackle it doesn't matter. But you have to go to a hood league  cause it's more entertaining and the talent is better. I went this weekend to see my nephews play and man it was more entertaining then a cowgirls game. These little kids can ball. I saw moves that I didn't think kids in the third grade could do and all of them are competitive and were ballin out of control. I wish I had video taped it cause the games were good. If you want to be entertained and are tired of seeing the sucky cowgirls play you should go to a hood near you and watch a game or two....trust me it's wroth it.
