I just have a quick story to share before I head off to dreamland.
I had a class on campus tonight and it just happened to be rainy. It's a good thing I keep an umbrella in my car for just this sort of occasion. As I was leaving school, with a mob of people, I proudly carried my umbrella over my head. There was only 1 other in a pack of about 20 people who had one.
Then, I got to my car. That's when it happened...I somehow got the umbrella stuck on a bobby-pin in my hair?
What? No! This isn't happening. Snap!
Pull it together, Amy...don't let on...
I ever so carefully freed my hair from the mechanics of the umbrella and I don't think anyone saw. Well, if they did, I'm sure they'll know to keep their comments to themselves.
Once again, I find myself in a clumsy mess. That's twice in 3 days. What is wrong with me?
OK...go ahead...it's OK to laugh now. ;)

I wonder if it's not just an Amy thing? lol. Being UBER accident prone myself I get it... The latest for me was torn ligament in my ankle when I thought I was rescuing a child from the tub... Slipped and got hurt instead... It's somewhere in my blog if u get the chance to check it out, lol... In the meantime, just remember the mini first aid kit and the icepacks!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you are still going through the stages of grief. Hang in there!
ReplyDeletelol. I used mine to get out of the car at you place. As I ducked to get out of the car, the apple in my purse fell out and rolled under my car. Ther I was hold the umbrella, shifting my purse and trying to look under the car at the same time. I got frustraed and decided to let the squirrels find it. As I straightened up and closed the car door, there was the apple by the back wheel.
ReplyDeleteyet another reason why a raincoat is always better than an umbrella!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the previous poster about the rain coat, it really is better. That's really too bad glad you made it to class.
ReplyDeleteFunny! I recall once leaving campus late at night, exhausted from a long, boring lecture. At the time I drove a dark green Saturn SL, but that night I ended up getting into a dark blue Saturn SL. I didn't realize it until after I attempted to turn on the car and my key wouldn't fit. Then I tried to slink out of the wrong car without the floods of people coming out of classes seeing me. I didn't want anyone to think I was trying to steal it - I had my own Saturn!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, to this day, I have no idea how my key alarm opened that car, or if it was just left unlocked and I thought my key alarm opened it.
