Is it pathetic or just really pathetic that I almost forget how to write an Awkward & Awesome post?
To make myself not feel so bad, I will just stick with the first option.
Please excuse me as I have been slacking big time when it comes to my usual Thursday musings.
Today though I am regaining my title as the A&A Princess {pretty sure this girl is the Queen}
Where is my Burger King crown when I need it?
Enough small talk, let’s get crackin’.
Awkward
1. I was conversing with another co-worker of mine about one of the most important topics you could talk about at work–food. We got on the subject of soup and she recommends some certain brand saying
“Oh it is the best because it is so chunky!!”
If you think you are going to win me over on a food because of it’s “chunkiness” level, we have a problem.
I may or may not have threw up in my mouth at that moment.
2. Remember here when I was poppin’ corks like it was my job?
So naturally, I pop the cork out our patio door to watch it fly into the grass.
Turns out a DirectTV guy was at the neighbors, on a ladder none the less.
Thankfully, nobody was killed in the popping of the cork.
If only I could’ve videotaped the poop that must’ve come out of his pants when he heard that explosion.
That or the look on his face when he saw me run in the yard in my slippers and apron to pick up the cork.
3. I was grocery shopping the other day and I stopped to purchase some flowers.
As the flower lady was wrapping up my pretty little stems, a woman walks up to my cart and walks off with it {thinking it was hers}.
Just fyi here-chasing after somebody in a grocery store yelling “That’s my cart!!” is a little uncomfortable.
4. I was conversing with a Subway employee the other day and she says “Happy Halloween”
I say “Oh yeah, I keep forgetting that it is today!!” then I say “I guess at our age you kinda forget about those things” Totally normal comment except she was 70.
I now categorize myself with people 45 years older than I.
Awesome.
5. Minutes before that Subway incident, I stopped at the Post Office to mail out 5 boxes of cookies.
After realizing that sending cookies internationally is more expensive than buying new furniture, I decided I would keep the cookies. Until the man says “I’ll have the cookies–I love cookies!”
Being the sweetheart I am, I gave him the cookies.
And then proceeded to write down for him my blog URL.
I left feeling like a complete idiot for just giving a 40+ yr old male cookies and my blog address.
Sir, if you are reading–I apologize you have suffered through my non-sense.
Hope you liked the cookies at least.
Awesome
1. If you were not already aware, I dropped the .blogspot like a bad habit.
Founder and creator of LIY, Erin turned her dream of a hobby blog into a full-time career which she now runs alongside the LIY team! When not in front of her computer screen [with a La Croix or wine in hand] or in front of a mirror taking mirror selfies, you can find Erin spending time on the water, cuddled up with her two pups and husband most likely watching the latest Shark Tank episode, or getting lost in an easy beach read.
The wonderful world of meal delivery services. Also known as, the easiest way to whip up delicious meals in a short amount time, no grocery runs required. I’m sure you have heard of several different brands of dinner boxes, meal delivery services, whatever you want to call it [I prefer “those kits that magically appear […]
If there’s one thing the LIY Team did this Summer [besides go for boat rides and drink seltzers] – it was read. Audio books, Kindle editions, good old fashion physical copies… you name it, we read it. While we went through a few that weren’t so great, we did find a few worth passing along! […]
