Ya'll know I have done some pretty stupid things in my past. I'm the gal who
has fallen into a pond while on a hot date. I'm known to trip, say ridiculous
things and so on. But never have I walked around the city with a large branch
in my hair.
Okay, let me give you the details. This summer I took on one of my
fears-college algebra. Get this, I passed the class but as a result I have gone
ninety miles an hour. I didn't see friends, family and I didn't do anything
fun. All I did was study. You know how it is-if you're going to face a fear you
have to give it your all. Now, I'm trying to get back to the basics. I'm
cooking (okay, more like I'm burning food but whatever) I'm seeing my Gnomies
and just living life.
So this weekend I went on a shopping spree. I bought boots, skirts and
darling lil English Fascinators. I walked around the outdoor mall with my
friend Jameses. I must have been on cloud nine because I walked right into a
tree. This is normal thing for me. I'm always tripping so I just rubbed my head
to make sure I wasn't bleeding and then went on with my business.
I continued to walk around the mall and the more I walked around the more
people started staring at me. I figured I must have been looking goooood. I had
on my tennis skirt with my chucks. I even wore this funky lil headband. I kept
shopping and all the while an old man stared at me with a confused look on his
face. A child even grabbed his momma's skirt and his momma whispered, "It’s
not polite to stare."
I shrugged my shoulders and just kept shopping. It wasn't until I got home
that I realized I had been walking the streets of the city with a gigantic
branch in my hair. I must have looked like I walked out of a jungle. The branch
was thick and as long as two pencils put together. The branches had green
leaves and everything.
Yep, someday's just aren't going to go the way you planned. Even so, live it up, my friends.

Hahahahahahahaha! Russ, you are the best. We need to shop.
great one! you should compile all your embarrassing moments! it would sell! people like to laugh at other people's mistakes =)
nice to meet you thru gutgaa too!
I apologize for laughing--that was funny. Totally embarrassing, but funny.
So did your friend not notice either? Or just thought the mall patrons could use a good laugh?
Maybe they thought you were trying to pull off a radical new hairstyle? ;) (Says the person who once had the misfortune of having a bird poop on her hair...)
Russo, you make me feel good about all the stupid things I've done! Thank you!
Oh, dear... that just won't do at all, will it? Very funny!
Did you keep the branch? It would work well in a Halloween costume . . .
Love it! All I can think of is -- The Odd Life of Timothy Green (I think that's the title) -- the little boy who comes from the garden and has...leaves and little twigs growing out of him...
