Oh my. I don’t know if it’s the baby sucking the nutrients out of my brain or the lack of sleep… but I am not functioning at 100% lately. My recent adventure involves a REALLY embarrassing moment.
I went to the convenience store and could not find my crave of the moment (chocolate covered raisins).
I approached a young employee and asked her for help.
I asked, “Do you sell Gillette raisins?”
She looked at me like I was crazy.
I then reiterated my point… “You know, the Gillette raisins.”
She looked confused. I thought to myself, I realize she’s young but I’m sure she’s heard of Gillette raisins before!
She said, “I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
Good grief! I was getting frustrated and I wanted my chocolate covered raisins asap!!! What was wrong with this girl?
I then said, “You know the Gillette chocolate covered raisins?”
She smiled and said, “Oh… Glossette raisins.”
I wanted to find a hole to hide in. Poor girl. She was probably so confused and trying to figure out whether I wanted razors or chocolate raisins. Hopefully she just dismissed me as one of “those” crazy pregnant ladies.
Haha – I REALLY needed a good laugh. I’m sooooo tired and grumpy…. teething baby… Ahhh. Now I think I can carry on.
Thanks :)
:o) Great story, so funny!
Hello, I found you through Mom Bloggers network. I know what you mean about baby brain. It was like I had massive ADD when my son was born. It hasn’t changed all that much in the two years he’s been with us.
don’t worry!!! everything is under control!!! LOL
LOL! When I met my friend Judi, years ago, she’d invited me over for coffee. It was delicious so I asked her the brand name. The next time we get together I ask if she’s going to have “Starburst” coffee. She busted up laughing because she’d actually served me “Starbucks” coffee. To this day, she always says, “Come over and we’ll have some Starburst coffee.
LOL GILETTE! During my 3rd trimester Sees Candies had these cute little chocolate balls I loved! Once I ran out, I went to restock only to find out they didn’t have them any more because it was a holiday item. UGH! The saleslady offered a square chocolate alternative and I said to her, “No that’s okay, I like the balls, they’re so much easier to just pop in my mouth.” I didn’t realize how bad it sounded until she looked at me with a blank face. I DIDN’T MEAN IT LIKE THAT COME ON! Sigh.
LOL that’s hilarious! I remember playing dodgeball about a decade ago with a big group of friends and bellowing out to stop grabbing at one another’s balls. I’m just starting to live that one down. Oh… the things we say without realizing it.
