Have you ever had one of those days you should have just gone back to bed? Well, today was that very day. First of all, I had an appointment at 8:30 am--missed it. Completely missed it. For no good reason other than I missed it. Then, I was supposed to meet my sister and sister-in-law at the gym at 10:00 am. I was a good 25 minutes late, at least, because I was rushing around trying to fit in the appointment I had missed earlier.
I arrived at the gym dressed in my every day clothes, so I had to change (but miraculously I did remember my gym clothes--I do have a point here). I ran into the Locker Room and rushed to change, so I could meet up with the girls. Quickly, I grabbed my handy hand towel (because yes, I'm sweaty like that) and my music, etc., and ran out of there as fast as I could. I hopped on the stair-climber (that thing is hard!) and after about five minutes, I wiped my brow with my little hand towel. It is then that my panties spill onto the stair-climber and then onto the floor. For all to see. In all their glory. And I'm not talking my special ones, I'm talking my spare-bright-blue-gym panties. Yes, that's right. I carry panties around like I do a towel. I wanted to die. I had to hop off really quickly and act like, "What? Please disperse. There's nothing to see here." So, I returned the panties to their rightful location asap, and then finished my workout.
Lovely.
As I was trying to wrangle the kids into the car after my workout, I noticed I'd missed 6 calls (I'm never that popular), only to realize I was supposed to have some friends over that morning and I wasn't there when they showed up. (PS girls--I'm sorry again, if you're out there!)
I mean who does that? I honestly think I might have some undiagnosed retardation or something, because Holy Freakin Cow. I can be special. And not in a good way.
I'm going back to bed...

ah kristi... i'm sorry, but the panties made me chuckle. i have days like that WAY too often. my luck - i would've accidentally just grabbed the panties. and would've wiped my face with them! haha. cheer up, the days almost over. and people will forgive you for missing activities. we all have s*$&@y days.
I feel your pain Kristi. I haven't thrown my panties around the gym floor recently, but I was trying to get Connor into his car seat today at the library only to realize there was a man waiting behind me to get into his car. That usually isn't such a big deal, except I was doing plumber's crack. I'm blaming it on maternity pants. The ones that are cute below the big fat belly instead of having a panel. Seriously, I wanted to die.
I meant CUT below the big fat belly in that last comment. I wish we could go back and edit comments!!!
I pulled out my spinning shoes one time and had a tampon string stuck to the velcro and then I flung it across the room. The little critter escaped from it's package and just got loose and stuck! How embarrasing.
We all have days like that though. It's almost done, rest assured it can only get better!! Your friends will have something to tease you about. (i didn't finish my thought before I pushed publish)
oh that was some funny stuff. I love the undies picture. I went to a wedding(civil ceremony) last year, I was having a super heavy period. The best man was an hour late. So by the time it was over we had been sitting a long time. I stood up the chairs were white and I had bled all over the chair. All through my skirt the whole bit. Everyone saw the blood, I raced outside,started crying,didn't even really say hi to the bride and groom, and drove home. We came clear from Vegas to Utah for this wedding. It was the worst! anyway glad I'm not the only one these things happen to.
that rocks, kristi. you did have a hum dinger of a day, didn't ya? i forgive you for ditching me, then! just kidding, i didn't care in the first place. wait, that sounded harsh. i cared. i just figured you forgot. not pissed or anything. i love everyone's great stories. plumber's crack, flying tampons, bleeding out at a wedding?! merciful heavens, y'all. my best one was a panty showing occasion, too. but the ones i was wearing, not extras. and they weren't exactly panties. one day i was crossing the street at a crosswalk at the u of u and my wrap skirt came untied and all but blew away. there i was i my undies and hooker boots chasing my skirt down the street. it was great. really great.
I did laugh about the panties, probably because that would be something that would happen to me on those kind of days, MOST days I should say. What a terrible day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Oh Girl! I've got enough of those stories to write a whole book. It is comforting for me to know I'm not the only 'Josie Grossie' out there.
Hooray for your stories! They crack me up. Thanks for making me feel better!
