A couple days ago I checked my bank account and it said I had over $10,000! I was like "WTF?! Where did THAT come from???" Mom and I looked at my account together and we found a bunch of Social Security deposits, like for $4,000 and $1,000 and other weird sums. We thought it must have been a mistake, so we went to the Social Security office and told them about it. The lady checked things out, and turns out it WASN'T a mistake..they owed me money and since dad gets SS too I'm entitled to get money from him too (or something like that..too complicated for me to remember haha). So all that money is indeed mine. Um..wow. O__o I actually feel really guilty about it..I know people that would LOVE to have that kind of money and need it more than me. Maybe I could find a place to donate some of it to. A vacation to somewhere like Iceland would be cool too. That's so crazy..

Social security only wants people to have $2000 in their bank account(s). In Bank of America I had a bunch in my savings so I put some in my checking to spend to get down to $100 and make the math easier. From amazon I bought 2 glacier books, "Odyssey" by Symphony X, and "The Crucible of Man (Something Wicked Part II)" by Iced Earth. Mom wants me to buy winter stuff with it too :P

Aww the chickadees are out..cute hehe

Today's stupidest quote: actual courtroom testimony
Lawyer: What about the research?
Witness: I don't think there is any research on that. There's a logical hunch that may be true, but I know of no research study that would support that
Lawyer: What about just common sense?
Witness: Well, I'm not here using common sense. I'm here as an expert

Holy cannoli. I started my new class practical writing today...and I'm not staying. It wasn't what I thought it would be and the teacher said "et cetera" every five seconds...I'm not joking. It amused me at first then got incredibly annoying...maybe she took Latin. I think half the class is gonna change too cause they were also annoyed...dunno which class I'll change to but I'll see tomorrow

I had to go back to the orthodontist today and they put the retainer thingy in so it could pull my tooth up. It'll take a few weeks...good thing there's no pain
