I was at the Verizon store today, checking on my bill, and was told it would be faster to just call 611. I got in my car and dialed the Verizon number, and got 911. Imagine my surprise when the dispatcher said, "911, what is the nature of your emergency?" To which I wanted to say, do you have record of when I paid my current bill? Of course I didn't say that, I was too shocked, and I just said, "oh my gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to dial you." The dispatcher wasn't sure at first, and asked me if I was sure I didn't need them. I wonder how many false calls, pranks, etc. they get in a day? I was so flustered, I just told her I made a mistake in dialing. How many people dial 911 instead of 611? Well, look at your phone and the placement of the numbers 9 and 6. Yep, one right on top of the other. I did feel stupid, though.
I did a little bit of coupon shopping, and scored pretty well with my coupons and above normal shopping abilities :) I paid just around $20.00 for the items in this picture. I think the pre-coupon price was around $40.00, so I feel pretty good about it. I do have an abnormal amount of shampoo around the house, now, so for all of you coming to visit this summer, DON'T bring any shampoo!
Don't forget that the second horse race (The Preakness), for the triple crown is today. Go Super Saver!
Aww, dang it, "Lookin at Lucky" won the race. Good thing I didn't bet on Super Saver (not that I had any money to bet, anyway).

Hey mom, good job! Is that detangler for kids? If so, I use that for Lauryn. :) Welp, watch out for those keys on your phone, or else we'll have to start calling you the "old" lady! just kidding.
