...And You Know I Want to Ride Out
Like I mentioned before, the 24th of June marked the day I became legal. Heidi put it best--in the birthday present she gave me she included a letter. She started the letter by pointing out how old I was, then said, "Now you can do things that are completely irrelevant to us!" Isn't that the truth. Believing in what I do, and having the standards that I do, makes turning 21 just another birthday.
But, Darren wouldn't hear that. He took me at midnight to Maverick (the only thing open at midnight in Rexburg) to buy alcohol (of which we were going to immediately dispose of). But, the story gets better. Not only were we at Maverick (classy, right?), but when I got carded they wouldn't let me buy it because it still said 'under 21' around my picture. We convinced him to pose for a picture anyway.
All of us on our way to the barbecue



Don't be jealous. This is post picnic and Catch Phrase, and pre Toy Story 3



So, we headed home. Upon pulling in, wishing Brynnly a goodnight, and hobbling up the stairs, we realized someone was standing in our apartment. A dear group of boys from our ward had let a squirrel into our apartment while we were gone. When the realized we were gone the majority of them had walked away. All except one, who had stayed and gone through all of our stuff trying to find the stupid animal. We escorted him out, gave them a little taste of their own medicine, and then went to sleep. Assured there were not longer wild animals lurking in our apartment.
Come Friday, I was sitting on the floor in front of the couch, doing my homework, and minding my own business when I heard scratching on the tile in the kitchen. I screamed, "Squirrel!" at the top of my lungs, making Tanya throw her scriptures she'd been reading, and waking Taylor up from her nap. I immediately sprinted to Darren's and recruited him, he followed the urine trail to Taylor's bedroom where it had apparently had a slumber party.
Fantastic.
