A couple weeks ago, I had a friend call and invite me, along with some other ladies, to go and see a movie (The Time Travelers Wife). Adam and I were out of town. When we got back into town, I asked her if everyone had had a good time and if the movie was good or not...
Michelle: "yeah, we had a good time. But the movie had a lot of bums in it.
Me: "Really?" (thinking homeless people)
Michelle: " yeah, everytime I'd turn around there was another bum!"
Me: "REALLY!?!" (still thinking homeless people..which I've seen maybe a dozen here in my whole life!.. and, at this point, wondering if it had been a FREE screening of the movie)
Michelle: "I was a little disappointed..."
we finished up our conversation, and not until I was halfway down the hall, did I realize she had been talking about NUDITY the whole time!! DUH...
NEXT...
I went to back to school night on Thursday and, once again, was having a conversation with a friend about her kids only being in grade school together...
Me: "Well, maybe you will live in a district with middle school by the time they are older?"
Hilary: "did you grow up with middle school?..
Me: "I didn't, but that district does now."
Hilary: "..because I did. That's one thing I never understood about Idaho. You don't have middle school and you drive so early!"
Me: I actually didn't say anything, but thought to myself, "I was just in New York and there were cars driving around at 2:00 in the morning?!? what in the world is she talking about!"
Hilary: (possibly seeing the confused look on my face) "I didn't learn to drive until I was 16?!?"
oohhh, I get it now! DUH....am I the only one lost here?!?

The bum story cracks me up every time I think of it. I had to tell it to my book club ladies b/c it was just too funny!
You are so dang funny. Did you really think that I was talking about homeless people? You have a pure mind. Good for you. That movie ruined my any pureness I might have had. Love the stories. You're awesome!!
I think it was b/c I was still in the New York mode?!? I truly don't know...and yes, I AM that Pure :)
You are sooo funny and sweet! You have always brought out the "best" in people. And you were always the sweetest and most innocent among us all. I think that its a wonderful quality to have and hold onto! You are so sweet its good to check in and see whats going on with you!
LOL - I grew up in NY and we had "Middle School" not Junior High and I also didn't get my license until I was 16.
