Contractions, Rain, and Car Trouble... What a Friday!

I'd love a full night's sleep... I know that in just a few short weeks they'll be a thing of the past, but I'd love one... just one, before the baby gets here... but of course that probably isn't going to happen.
Woke up at 2:30 this morning with contractions... yay, right??? well, I was getting all excited and then, they just went away.... GRRR!!!! seriously???!!! ugh. Anyway, finally fell asleep when Patrick left for work at 5:30. Got up at 9 to get ready to be at work at 10. Decided that I would go by Mom & Dad's on the way to work to make myself a sandwich for lunch... and as i was pulling in...  "POP!!!" (followed by a loud hisssss)..... GREATTT!!!! So something's obviously wrong with my car and I have no idea what it is. Not apparently the tires cuz they're all still inflated and when I checked my fluids yesterday they were all fine... AND Dad and Patrick are out of town till this evening so I obviously never made it to work. I am so thankful I have the best boss ever who is totally understanding about me not making it to work... which is happening increasingly often these days.
And now it's raining... Which I really don't mind, but this weekend is Oklahoma State's homecoming weekend... the greatest homecoming celebration in the nation and Friday night is the WalkAround. I'd looove to go, but once again, it's raining so I don't know if they'll even have it.
Wow, so that  was quite a rant! But, I feel better now so I'll leave you with this lil nugget:
