Yay me

I got my first Chemistry test back on Wednesday night. I got a 94! The two I missed were stupid mistakes that 55/68 students missed. Now, most professors I have had give those points if that many students miss the same question...not this one. Oh well, it is still an A even if it is an A-.

So, Tuesday when I took Cameron to daycare my car made a funny noise as I was pulling into the parking lot. I didn't know what it was, but I didn't worry too much. I then heard the same noise as I was pulling into my school parking lot. I called Michael to tell him what I heard so I wouldn't forget to tell him when he got home that evening. He said he would look at it. Ok, so then I left that campus to head to another, left that one to head back to the first after a class and when I was getting on the freeway I heard the noise, but this time while driving. I called Michael and told him, he told me to head home to get the truck to go to my last class, but since I was almost already to school I just told him I would go home after class.

Got home after school, Michael got home and he and the neighbor took a look. They thought that some half shaft was bad so Michael would replace it on Wednesday. The neighbor said that I could drive on it for probably a year without any problems. Flash forward to Wednesday afternoon. I was heading to lunch from work and my car starting shaking really bad and making that terrible noise. I pulled into the Subway parking lot and looked at my tire to make sure everything was ok. It was NOT! I could see a lug nut between the hubcap and tire. I was on the phone with Michael and he said that they didn't take that wheel off so it couldn't be mine. Well, I got the hubcap off and what did I see? Two out of five lug nuts holding my tire on and they weren't tight at all. My tire could have fallen off while I was driving. How scary is that?!?! Had my car towed home, Michael put new lug nuts on and drove it around because the neighbor said that the noise could have been from the loose tire all along. Yep, that is what it was. Had they taken that hubcap off the night before we might have found all of that out. Oh well.

Sorry for that long drawn out story, but you know, I was really writing it all out for myself anyway.

I have LOTS of studying to do today. I have a quiz on Tuesday in anatomy lab and a test on Thursday in anatomy. We are studying two different things in each class so I have to fill my head with MUCHO information.
