5 Mistakes Before 2:00 pm

You know the phrase "Everybody makes mistakes"? It's true.

And I had an interesting day yesterday to prove it.

Here, in list form of course, are the mistakes that I made in just one day before 2:00 pm (be prepared to be amazed):

1. Walked into the men's room. An occupied men's room.

2. Didn't immediately realize that I was standing in the men's room, the occupied men's room, until the man said "Can I help you?" as he zipped up.

3. When calling the City Parks Department, I inadvertently pressed 1 for the Police instead of 9 for the Parks Department. Then I had to explain that no, I in fact do not think that my desire to have season passes to the pool this summer constitutes an emergency and yes, I'm very sorry to have been such a nimrod and yes, I'd be delighted to make a donation to the Shop With A Cop program.

4. Didn't consult my rear appearance before I put on zebra striped undies with light khaki capris. Ever have a pair of pants or shorts that requires more than a cursory thought at your choice of skivvies? For me, it is my light khaki capri's. Basically, I flashed my zebra print Vickie's to everyone at the library, the 4H Extension Office, Target, Goodwill, Subway, the Parks (not Police) Department, the gas station, and Kohl's.

5. Got a little too close to a shoestring when running the vacuum. Spent the next fifteen minutes trying to unwind the darn thing and the next six hours trying to get the burning smell out of the house.

Tomorrow has got to be a better day.
