Yesterday I learned that Marjorie, my landlady of almost ten years, had passed away. I just saw her last week and she seemed fine, so it must have been sudden. I was so surprised and sad..she was always so nice and we had good conversations about cats and stuff lol. She will definitely be missed..it'll probably be hard to replace her, since she'd been working here so long. So sad, and scary to be reminded of mortality D:

Mom asked me to go to bingo with her to help her and her boss celebrate a customer's birthday, so I was like "suree" haha (it was a surprise party, and she started crying! Awww). I still feel weird going there, but it is fun. On one game someone got a bingo, and for some reason after that the caller tells us the next three numbers that would have come up next..if that person hadn't called bingo, I would have gotten it! (It was number 16 too!) Darn haha, maybe next time?? :P

It's supposed to be -29 on Friday and -32 on Saturday..looks like winter has caught up with us now D:

Day 347-351 )

Today's trivia: New Mexico's Department of Transportation added grooves to the section of Route 66 between Albuquerque and Tijeras that play music when you drive over them going the speed limit of 45 mph. The grooves work just like the rumble strips, which vibrate your car if you drift out of your lane. These particular strips are positioned to create different pitches when you drive over them, and if you do, you can clearly hear "American the Beautiful" play through the vibrations in your car's wheels (I want to try that!)

Woohoo, I found my 900th geocache today!! (Sorry about the lame sign though. :P) It'll be super cool to get to 1000 next :D

Yesterday mom *insisted* I go to Bingo with her and her boss, so I did..it definitely felt super weird because most of the people there were older than me lol, but it was still fun. I came close to winning on a couple games, but others got there before me. I also tried Pull Tabs for the first time..you buy a bunch of cards and pull off the tabs to see if you won anything..I won $2.00! I could have kept playing, but that was good enough for me haha (mom's boss said I'm corrupted now LOL). I was SO tired at the end after staring at numbers for two hours, and even had a dream about dabbing Bingo cards haha!

And OMG THIS!

Ahhh they recently dived the Terror with a robot and took this awesome video!!! I got CHILLS when they shined the light into Crozier's cabin..wowwww. And there might even be salvageable documents in his desk?!? Oh man, I'm jealous of whoever gets to do that. Amazing how well preserved it is! Dad actually called me just to ask if I had seen this yet, Christine from Juneau posted it on my wall, and because I'm a member of Remembering the Franklin Expedition, my Facebook is blowing up with Franklin news haha. So cool!
