Sorry for the frequent posts, but I found a verrrry interesting story or two from last night. So as most of the McCullochs who have lived in our house know.. our power goes out quite often. For some reason our circut thingy just isn’t very good. So it’s Sunday night, having family home evening, and talking about how to recognize spirits, good and bad. Dad goes “And remember when there’s a bad spirit, you’ll shake his hand and you can’t feel it. KAAWHOM! Every light in the house (and half of charlotte) goes out. Dad then says “Well lets NOT TRY IT NOW” Yes that was funny, now on to story numero dos! So we didn’t know that more than just our neighberhood was out, when our good friend johnny calls. He asks if we have power. That’s wierd because the Williams NEVER lose power. We usually go to their house when we lose power. So we decided to go out driving, to see how much was out. We get in the car with flashlights and all and drive out. We see over half the arboretum is completely dark, and everything past that was also. (locals: taco bell’s side and on was out, wal mart and past was still on) So we drive around and decide to stop at the Williams just for the heck of it. Dad suggests we go around the back to scare the crap out of them.. heh heh heh. So we do, we go around very stealthily, walk onto the deck and point flash lights into their house, we see Johnny jump, and run upstairs, we keep doing it and see elizabeth jump too. So we decided we were done and went to the front. We get to the door to find elizabeth standing there on the phone and when she sees us DIVES to the floor in the room next to her. Then when we knock on the door she peeks out, sees us, opens the door, and screams at us. We then hear the story of how johnny saw a light, ran upstairs and got out his super sharp knife (it’ll kill somone) and elizabeth told their parents, who both didn’t believe them. It reminded us of one of those movies were kids are actualy telling the truth but the parents don’t believe them so the kids are left to save the world. Yes well sorry for such a long post. But it was an extensive story.

Pace mentioned Epsom salt in the post revealing myself as an author, and my mom read it and suggested i told the story. So here goes..
Mom was gone to Utah for the 2 weeks, and we (my dad, me, and my best friend johnny) were going to ci-ci’s. (An excellent speciality pizza buffet) On the way there in the car, johnny is sittin in the back and is being regular curious johnny, and looking around. He finds a bag of white powdery, shelly, salty, like stuff. And goes “Why do you have cocaine in your car?” Me and dad look at each other and dad says “Must be mom’s secret stash.. Lemme see it” While driving opens up the bag, smells it, looks at it, puts a bit on his finger.. and.. Sticks the finger in his mouth. He immediantly spits it out and makes the wierdest “This is the worst thing I’ve ever tasted in my life” face I’ve ever seen. Me and johnnny (johnny and I sorry) begin laughing. I pull out my cell phone and call mom. She picks up.. here is what was said.. “Hello?” “Mom why do you have a bag of cocaine in the car?” “(gasp) Did you get pulled over??!” “hahahaha no dad just ate some, what is it?” “HAHA he ate some!?” “yeah what is it?” “It’s epsom salt” “It’s epsom salt dad.. what’s that?” “It’s stuff I soak my foot in.”
Yeah we laughed some more as dad decided he couldn’t eat very much pizza with foot taste in his mouth.
