An oldie but a goodie.

I wish I had a pic to go along with this next one because words can't describe what a pic can show. We were celebrating my birth a few weeks ago with my extended family and my dad brought up a story that was totally blog worthy. My cousin-in-law Lindsey even asked why I hadn't blogged about this, so Linds, this is for you.

I'm going to start out by warning you about the Flying J in Nephi. Apparently all the creepos hang out there and this story is just a glimpse of what I have seen take place. Gas stations aren't usually the classiest joints but you definitely see all kinds there. Case in point. We were coming back from our annual Powell trip with the Haths. I wasn't looking my best as I had been on the lake for 7 days and if you know me at all, you know I don't shower too often at the lake. We were on the homebound stretch, and made our last stop in Nephi to fill up. I ran in do use the bathroom and get a little treat. I was standing in line with Brooke when it happened. In walks a trucker that was probably the creepiest man I have ever seen. He gets in line behind me and whispers this in my ear...

"I'll make you a deal. You give me a smile and I won't tickle you."

What?!?!? I have never been so creeped out in my life! I casually laughed but secretly wanted to cry. Meanwhile, what looks like his granddaughter, walks in to say something to him. He proceeds to yell and swear and this little girl while winking at me. Brooke kindly waited for me so that I that I wasn't taken out back and molested. Not sure if I have ever thanked her for that, so thank you Brooke!

Ahh Alli, It is the creepy stories that make the best blog posts. I'm so glad you posted about it!
I loved Steve's reaction when you were telling this story. Stewart's never disappoint.
P.S. It was fun seeing you at Liz's wedding. That is so funny. Scott was looking at some of the pictures and realized that he knew Judd from Waterford. Small world!

Oh, and where is my facebook invite?
I couldn't find you on there or else I would totally have sent you an invite. Who are all of these people that have 600 friends? Do you have 600 friends? I'm going to be happy if I can get 20 (or maybe 30 if I'm super lucky).
It's a weird internet world.
