WD-40 and Cupcakes
I think its about time for my once-every-couple-months posting. So today I finally got paid, and celebrated with a trip to Target and proceeded to buy 78 cent cupcake mix and 1.29 funfetti frosting- yes, I am baller that way.
As Chris knows, Aysha's place is right on a street corner where a car gate continuously opens and closes throughout the night with the loudest creaking ever heard. Our solution: midnight mission.
Midnight mission took place approximately at 22:45. Aysha and I slyly crept down to the noisy gate, WD-40, flashlight, and guns in hand. Westwood is still busy this time of night, so we had to take cover in the bulganvilia bush until the coast was clear. Some cars drove through the gate, we listened for the source of the creaking. We saturated the area (per WD-40 orders) and waited. Fail. We proceeded to saturate every crease and hindge. No cars. Our attempt to set off the senors failed as well. 200 lbs a car does not make. We retreat back to base to listen for the results of our mission.
As of 23:11: SUCCESS! We celebrate with cupcakes. Our slumbers will be creak-free from now on.
Aysha's conclusion: "We should do many shady things."
And we shall.

omg this is amazing. I'm really glad you went on a secret mission, reminds of when Aaron and I almost died. And I am glad you were successful.

I was just thinking about WD40 the other day, and how the sea world sky tower needs it, but I like how you made a secret mission out of it, like chris said,
especially if Funfetti is involved.
