Ok people. I've got another 'moment' for y'all. So I stayed over at a friends house the other night due to inconvenient weather conditions and was the last to leave the next morning. After warming up my truck and making sure the house was locked up, I started to scrape the snow and ice off my truck. While standing in the door frame I must have hit the door lock and, you guessed it, locked myself out of my running truck. To top it off my phone was locked in the truck as well. Since a convenient ranch work truck was parked next to me, I started rifling through the bed for wire or tools that might help me break into my truck since I became an expert at it with the Chevy (I am notorious for locking my keys in my trucks....). Needless to say I discovered this is almost impossible to do with a Ford unless one literally 'breaks' in. BUT! Low and Behold! The work truck is unlocked and has keys in the ignition! Normally I would NEVER borrow somebody else's vehicle without asking, especially on icy roads, but I think this consititutes and emergency. So one spin-out (little truck, no traction, icy roads...forgive me) and 2 hours later I return with a spare key. Fun, Fun!
The spare is now wired to the frame of the truck.
So y'all want to know MORE details!?
I said I wasn't jinxing anything and just taking it as it comes, but to satisfy a few bodies...Shane is 33, about 5'10" or so, has dark hair and eyes, announces rodeo, works a ranch, rides, and occasionally reminds me of a few of my obnoxious students (minus the irresponsibility part). He pretty normal looking but has one hell of a personality (I suppose you have to when you work in front of an audience for a living), and really is adorable once you get to know him. He makes me laugh and seems to genuinly want me around...which I think is a good thing because we're both at an age where drawing things out seem really pointless. I figure, 'get to know a person, if they aren't who you want, move on...' No sense in wasting time. Jump in and have fun! If you aren't having fun...well....
Sorry. I'm not posting a pic specifically of him, but maybe he'll pop up on a future slide show or something ;)

Was your truck still running?!?!?
Sounds like a great guy...
My truck was STILL running! But I almost had a full tank of gas when I left...sooo...expensive day!
Yay for details! I'll be waiting for a picture!
Did you ever get caught for borrowing the truck?
The guy sounds awesome....can't wait to see pis.
It was Shane's truck and I gave him money for gas and told him not to ask, but he still managed to get the details out of me as well as refusing to accept any money. I was then teased about it all night at a party.
ooooh, sounds hot. I like outgoing/articulate guys, which you'd have to be to announce rodeo.
that sucks when you lock the keys in. haven't done it since I've owned a VW (past 3 cars). I used to run out of gas ALL the time, too.
