Scary Experience!!!

So, yesterday I had something super scary happen to me. It's been raining here in Mesa so Devin called me from work and asked me to move his truck, which is a single cab. I said sure and went out there, unlocked the door and got in. Then I made the huge mistake of closing the driver side door behind me. I put the key in the ignition and his truck wouldn't start! The battery was dead. You can't open either of the doors in Devin's truck from the inside, you have to roll the windows down and open them from the outside. But with the battery dead I couldn't even roll the windows down since they are electric! The battery was just too dead! I am very claustrophobic and started to freak out because I was stuck in Devin's truck. I kept looking around for someone to help me. I then started worrying about Indiana because she could be waking up from her nap any minute. My brother was here visiting from Las Cruces but he had just gone up to take a shower when I went out to move the truck. I started crying because I didn't know how long I was going to be stuck in there. Then I realized that his truck has one of those little sliding windows in the back that leads out to the bed of the truck. I opened it up (after quite a few tries because it was stuck) and then really doubted that I could fit my huge preggo body through that little square window. Well, I did and it was painful!!! When you are pregnant you don't have any stomach muscles to help hold your lower body up and my legs got all scraped up and then my knees are bruised from landing in the bed of the truck. I was finally free!!! When I think about it now and when I told Devin about it later I couldn't help but laugh. But at the time it was super scary!!! Sorry this is so long, I am very detailed when I tell stories. Anywhoo, that's it. I'm done.
