I Would Not Advise....

....walking to your van while the Medivac Helicopter is taking off nearby if there are eight inches of snow on the ground. One word: Blizzard.

....spinning your tires for 20 minutes trying to get out of a mud hole in your driveway. Two words: Bare tread.

....eating a bowl full of Doritos and drinking a large glass of chocolate milk while watching Dane break a Biggest Loser record by losing 100 pounds in eight weeks. Three words: Big Fat Pig.

....setting the (doggie bag) other half of your breakfast down on the counter while paying your bill at the restaurant and then forgetting to pick it up again, thereby leaving your delicious belgian waffle with peach, cherry and whipped cream toppings forever behind. Four words: My brain is mush.

....putting the window down at the automatic car wash to answer the attendant's question and then forgetting to put it back up again. Five words: What is(n't) up with that?!


For God has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of power and of love
and of a sound mind.
(so what's MY problem?!)
2 Timothy 1:7

First of all, that picture cracks me up!!
Second...I seem to have the same problem! I can't tell you how many doggie bags I've left at restaurants.
Thanks for a good coffee spitting laugh this morning. We're all the same aren't we...some just don't admit it.

Never beat yourself up over soggy Waffles and wilted Strawberries.

Doritos and chocolate milk?!?! Yuck!

Deb said...

Brillo Man....waffle wasn't soggy --everything was packaged separately in its own little neat cup with a lid --just waiting to be poured over a hot waffle.... sigh.

Cheryl...and as for chocolate milk and doritos...don't knock it 'til you've tried it

Dear Deb,
What makes ME mad is that sometimes when I open a creamer to put into my coffee, I pour it on to the table instead of INTO my cup!
That Jadi Gigi doesn't know what she's missing.
I wonder how she would like peanut butter and mustard sandwiches with lots of black pepper sprinkled inside?
For sure and it is just yummy!
Love Terry

Deb~ it's good to hear that I'm not the only one that is absent minded at times. This lighthearted, funny post was just what I needed.
And doesn't chocolate milk taste good with everything???

Deb said...

Peanut butter, mustard and pepper?
...sounds interesting...I may have to try that one day!

Oh my, where have you girls been all my life?! I swear, I would lose my head were it not attached to my shoulders!!! My Mom used to say that all the time. Now, I know what she meant! I searched the house over the other day looking for my eye glasses only to find them on my face! Now, is that bad or what?! Great post!
