I should really be studying right now...but I have a story that MUST be told.

So, I got a call this morning. And by morning I do NOT mean 8 AM. No, no. Morning=2:39 AM. I'd only been asleep for two hours...so it's not my best time. The first time the phone rang, I was completely asleep. By the time I had made it off my loft, it had stopped ringing. So, back in bed, the phone rings again. This time, I'm completely awake (not ready to jump up and answer a phone, but awake none the less). I make it off the loft and even have time for a quick conversation with Jas before I pick up the phone.

She thought it was probably "The Whisperer" a weird sicko who gets his kicks by calling girls super early in the morning to ask if he woke them up. But even this was about 4 hours too early for him.

I pick up...and am greeted by the sound of a completely awake female voice. MSU police department.

Apparently there had been some kind of water break in the parking lot (by where I used to live in Mason-Abbot) and I needed to move my car immediately. I found this very interesting, since my car is not on campus. It's in Grand Rapids with my father who drives it everyday. And even if it were here, I would not park in the location of where the woman was telling me I'd had to move my car from. Maybe, a year ago. So excluding a time warp or the car having been stolen (but really, why take the car to MSU? In fact, why steal THAT car?), this was not my car.

I mumbled as much to the lady and hung up. (Not mentioning time warps, I wasn't awake enough for that) So, upon waking this morning, (At a much more decent hour) I called my mom...to tell her my story. She confirmed that our car has NOT been stolen.

Thank you MSU for the 6 hour early wake up call. As if I wasn't having enough issues with you due to class scheduling issues.

Maybe the lack of sleep and hilarity of the situation will help me on my quiz and possible pop quiz.
