Yiasou!
Kalispera!
It's the favorite time of September - the Yiasou Greek Festival! Chris, Vania, Mom and I went for the food... Sophie for the rides. At least she had fun!

HWJD?
How Would Jesus Drive?
Alright, all of you hypocritical, phony Jesus-fish touting, maniacally-driving Tartuffes out there...
I got a few words for you. If you are so brash to brandish a (cliche) "symbol of God's love" on your vehicle, it would behoove you NOT to:
1. Cut other drivers off
2. Flip them the bird
3. Weave in and out of traffic at 80 miles an hour while on your cell phone
4. Drive so close to my bumper that I can see your pores in my rear view mirror
HWJD? Let me guess:
1. Jesus would wave after waiting patiently for you to let him in! He would acknowledge your courteous gesture! And perhaps put a blessing upon you!
2. Jesus would not ride the lane that is running out, just so he could swerve in front of a semi at the last possible open 5 inches of lane.
3. Jesus would not park his car in a busy parking lot diagonally as to avoid a scratch, taking up two parking spaces in the process.
4. Jesus WOULD USE HIS TURN SIGNAL!
(No Lisa, this post wasn't meant as a dig for you. I know you avoid driving the Jesus-Mobile for this very reason.)

Vending machine 2, Megan 1!!!!!
This time it was for a Dew. Maybe that's what swung things in my favor.
Had $1.25 in quarters this time, put 4 in but kept spitting the 5th one back at me. So I pressed the buttons and sure enough it read, "Sold Out." Okay. So I hit the refund button and out came 3 quarters.
"NOOOoooooooooo!!!!" I exclaimed, determined to avoid another Friday incident. So I feverishly hit the refund button and swept around the change return opening with my finger... until it loosened up not just one, but two quarters.
Net gain: $.25. Take THAT, Vending machine!!
Behold the power of Dew.
In case you're NOT keeping score as religiously as I am...
that's
Vending machine $.25
Megan $-.25 (up from $-.50)
Just you wait, Vending machine. We've got a looong road to travel together and I will reclaim what's mine!!

Well, what else is there to do in Alaska?
It's dark for 6 months! Is this not the most perfectly horrific time for something like that to happen? Wonder if the McCain camp knew about this beforehand... yikes. Glad I'm not invested in that Republican vote... (not that I'm invested in the the D one either...).
