I've had a rough day and some laughs. Here is my story.
It makes me laugh every year when school starts and we prepare our birthday calendar. We put all the names in appropriate months and we include Jesus for 12/25. We are a Christian school.
The first year I subbed in a class I was looking at the calendar talking with the teacher about the ages of the kids. So I asked her who was " hay sues." Teacher gave me a blank look and said " uh Jesus ". I could of felt embarrassed but it was hilarious and we both laughed.

I've had a rough day too and could use a laugh. But I can't think of anything funny myself . Yes, it's been THAT bad.

Where would a person with a name spelled Jesus not be called Hey-suess? That's the only way I've ever heard it said.

Well my co-workers all got a good chuckle, but my DS is super annoyed.
All summer I've been under the assumption that school starts on Thursday, September 4th. DH and DS are on vacation until Monday the 1st. A co-worker and I were talking today and he said he drove by my son's school and the sign out front says it starts Wednesday the 3rd. I said, my 6yo nephew told me it was Wednesday, but it's Thursday. Co-worker said, you might want to double check, so we looked and they're all right - it's Wednesday.
I texted DS and said, whoops you go back to school Wednesday, not Thursday. I seriously would have been that idiot mom that missed the first day of school. Who does that?!?!

My four year old nephew was staying last Friday and after his bath he tells me "I smell like bath and flowers and lovely". I thought that was so sweet.

My dad pronounces my nephew, Wyatt's name, WITE.
He also checks the pressure in my TARS, makes sure I'm not low on ALL, and deems them COPACETTI.
Once, at a Mexican restaurant, he asked for FRY-JOLIES on the side.

Well...there was the time I was going through airport security and the TSA agent shoved my bag through the scanner and that set off my electric razor.
By the looks I was getting when I picked up my buzzing bag, I'm pretty sure most people within earshot did not jump to the conclusion that my bag contained an electric razor...so...yeah, that was kind of funny.

Years ago I went with my then SO to his company's Christmas party. It was held at his boss' very nice home in his boss' very nice neighborhood. Not a formal event, but a dressy one, KWIM? As we were walking up to the door I felt my slip start to, well, slip. Yeah, just as it puddled around my ankles, his boss and the boss' wife opened the door. I was completely mortified!  But it's funny as hell now!  |

A few months ago, I was moaning to my DS16 that I still couldn't find the rings I put in a'safe place' last June. As usual, he was only half listening. I then said to him maybe I should try hypnotherapy to see if that helped. He looked up and said "To lose weight?" No, to remember where my rings are, you little bugger!  |

Ok, one Christmas my best friend and I were baking cookies. As we were toasting the almonds, we got to chatting and they burned. So off to the grocery store we go. It was a small store that I rarely use and I was a little unfamiliar with the layout. So, I marched myself right up to the front of the store near the registers and said to the first employee I saw, "Excuse me, where are your nuts?".  Everyone in line started to snicker and I thought the cashiers were going to pass out from holding their breath. I fumbled around and mumbled something like "um, you know like almonds and pecans". The young man that I asked just looked at me, blinked and then stuttered "uh... Aisle Two?" I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me whole. |

My mother was hard of hearing. She was getting chemo in a center and the place is ajways very busy. I was wearing a new bra. I am barely a B. My mother said "you look bigger up there." I felt the need to reply in a voice that she could hear "I am wearing a padded push up bra. I need all the help I can get."
She and everyone there heard it. They all snickered.

This reminded me of the woman who went to Home Depot, ask the cute guy in the front to point her in the direction of his "caulk" haha |

The other day I had a need to go to the courthouse. I live in a small county, but they recently put in an x-ray machine and metal detector. I put my purse on the belt and walked through the metal detector. The deputy said, "um, ma'am?" "yes?" "could you tell me what that metal object is in your bag?" There was a 6" long tapered metal thing in my purse. I had no clue what it was, but it definitely didn't look safe on the x-ray. I looked in my purse and found a pair of full size scissors. I had forgotten about them when I went to the courthouse. Luckily they were the cheapest scissors imaginable. Picture one step up from kindergarten paper scissors. It would take Jason Bourne to make a weapon out of these. I showed the deputy. he snickered and told me I could go ahead and go in. I was embarrassed and I believe I will check my bag before I go to the courthouse next time.  |
