Do you ever have one of those days where it seems that everything you say comes out completely wrong? I seem to be having more than my fair share as of late.
This morning, I went over to a friend's house for a play-date. Another perfectly nice and unnassuming mommy was there. I'd never really had the chance to speak to her before so I was looking forward to the meet and greet. Unfortunately, her home had been severely damaged by water from hurrucane Katrina and she was having to stay with relatives here for an undetermined amount of time. She's also pregnant with twins.
She was very nice and the meeting started out well. Then I actually began to speak. From that point on, I mentally attempted to barricade my mouth but still the stupidity ensued. By the time my brain caught up to my mouth, I'm pretty sure I was negative 10,0000 points. I felt like Homer SImpson juggling glass bottles of beer. Doh!
I guess this is just the way life goes sometimes. Maybe it's sleep deprivation or perhaps I just need to be socialized all over again. I'm sure this happens to other people (or so I tell myself) I just haven't had the pleasure of meeting them. Rob insists that I married one of them based on my reactions to half of what he says. I always retort with, "What do you know? You married me!"
I wonder if there's a finishing school for grown-ups. Perhaps I would qualify for free tuition based on my project status?
