A friend of mine has a boyfriend who is constantly giving her a hard time over her Twilight obsession. Last week he sent her the below video with the caption, "I'd consider watching this version of Twilight". While I am NOT fond of the ending, this was pretty dang funny so I thought I would post it for all of your viewing pleasures! Enjoy!

Love Story Meets Viva La Vida
A friend of mine on facebook posted this video and I just LOVED it! It is a mix of two of my favorite songs and the little story of Jon Schmidt's daughter who inspired this arrangement is just adorable! Enjoy!! ;)

Who else does this stuff happen to???
Ok, so those of you who have known me a while know that I am no stranger to bizarre happenings. I don't know why, but my life just seems to be truly filled with them, but none that compare with this morning.
I have been having some issues with my toilet. The lever or floater or whatever its called does not seem to drop when I flush so the tank doesn't fill with water. Of late this seems to be happening a lot. I have been meaning to investigate the problem, but just haven't gotten to it.
Well it happened again this morning, but this time once I got the water running it wouldn't stop. So I lift up the lid and see what the problem is. My little toilet bowl disc had floated over and stopped the stopper thingy (that would be a technical term) from allowing the tank to fill with water. I moved it and reached over to the sink to wash some black stuff off my hand before I put the lid back down, when the lid slipped and fell into the tank, breaking it and causing a flood all over my bathroom floor. Then I couldn't get the water to stop....I couldn't get the water valve to turn off. I finally find a lotion bottle close by that is the right size to put under the floater to at least temporarily stop the water flow.
Not a great start to the morning for sure. I called the landlord who informed me that this would be my responsibility as it was not caused by "normal wear and tear". Well this point is debatable, but it is what it is I guess. A plumber was called. He called me to let me know when I could expect him. He also informed me that it might be necessary to replace the toilet if he didn't have a tank that would fit my current toilet....I was freaking! HELLO I can't afford a freaking new toilet!!! The plumber was very nice and let me know that he would do his best to make this as inexpensive as possible.
Well when the plumber shows up, he takes a look at my tank and says, "wow I've never seen a tank break like that." Of course you haven't! Typical of my life. But on initial inspection, it looks as though the tank in his truck will fit. (hurray, a hint of some good news) He has to take the tank out in 2 pieces. As he is working to get the second piece out I hear, "Oh no!" Not what you want to hear from your plumber as he is working on your toilet. He comes out and asks if I have any gauze or anything as he has cut himself on the broken piece. Looks like he will need stitches....it is a pretty bad and deep cut. He asks if I'm queasy, I say no to which he replies, good cuz I am. Visions of my plumber passing out on my bathroom floor fly through my head. CRAZY!
We get him temporarily bandaged up, he says he thinks he can finish the job before he goes to get stitches. I say, if you need to go, I can wait. He decides to finish the job. The tank fits! Hallelujah!!!! I'm soooo relieved!! He is able to finish the job, it works great! And my water filling issues are also fixed as he replaces all the hardware inside the tank as well....HURRAY.
Then he comes to me and says he wants to try something, but needs my help. Would I be willing to help him superglue his injury? Really? Are you kidding me??? I figure it is his arm, so I will give it my best shot. So he goes and gets superglue from his truck and we proceed to superglue his cut arm in my bathroom.
So today, I broke my toilet, called a plumber, injured a plumber had injured plumber fix my toilet and performed superglue surgery in my bathroom....all this before noon! Can you believe it??
