What the ... who says that?!

Okay, some strange things have happened to me at the grocery store lately. Today I was at the local grocery store, getting ready to check out and this man comes up behind me and says, "It's a good day not to die, isn't it?"

I'm sure I gave him the strangest look, and then I just responded, "yeah, of course it's a good day not to die."
It was the most odd thing I'd ever heard anyone say. Weird! Who say's that? Seriously... Now I'm wondering if I should have asked him if he had a brush with death or something. Then I was wondering if he was planning on killing me. It was very strange.

Now rewind a few months. I was at WalMart in Springville, I was by myself and I noticed this man looking at me in the store. I didn't think much about it, I just went about my business. Then, as i was loading my car up with a few groceries, the same man comes up to me and asks, "Do you want to be my friend?"

I thought he was trying to get some money out of me or something, so I responded, "Why do you want to be my friend? Do you need something?"

He said "No, I just want to be your friend."

I was so confused. I thought he would ask me for something if I said we could be friends. I just kept saying, "You must need something if you want to be my friend."

Finally, he said, "No, I just was wondering if you would like to be my friend, you know... like go to dinner with me... be my girlfriend."

I kind of laughed and said, "Well, sorry, I'm married."

He started to back up and began apologizing saying, "I didn't mean to scare you, I just saw you in there and wondered if we could be friends. Sorry, no disrespect, just sorry!" He walked away and I quickly got in my car and drove away.

Although it's nice to know the strange man found me attractive, it makes me wonder why these wierdo's keep approaching me. I must look like I'm a weirdo too...

I just had to write this down, strange. Seriously though, who asks someone out by saying, "will you be my friend?"

A Good Day!

Just a quick update on what's been going on lately. Chris and Staci had their sweet little baby today. It was a rough road for them... really long story, but after 6 long years of trials they finally have little Ayla Rose. She was 7 weeks early, but is healthy and beautiful! We are so happy for them. They are great examples of hard work and perseverance. We love them and hope they will get to enjoy their sweet new addition at home soon!

Also, although very trivial compared to the great news above, Cedar High took 1st place today at a USA cheer competition at Riverton! I was so excited for them. They are 3A and won two 5A teams and two 4A teams. It's been so fun helping with the cheerleaders! They really are awesome!

That's it... just wanted to do a quick post:)
