That reminds me ...
Okay, the last entry I posted totally reminded me of this incident in college. This, by the way, is not a mom story. When I was a college freshman I was having lunch with this new acquaintance of mine named Mark. We had some sort of bio. lab together and lived in the same dorm area. SO, I'm sitting at this cafeteria table with Mark and a whole bunch of his other friends.
They're all shoveling in their food as quickly as possible because they all have class soon. I am the only one at the table who happens to be done for the day, so I'm fairly relaxed and eating casually until Mark happens to say something like, 'Wow, isn't Mindy a perfect eater? She's like a really dainty eater.' What?
Suddenly total strangers, staring. Probably wondering, Who is this Mindy? Does she really eat all that well? How dainty of an eater is she? Great, right? And next I feel something really wet and cold all down the front of my shirt. I had totally dumped my entire glass of water down the front of me--out of nerves from Mark's ridiculous observation and the resultant stares of the entire table. All this had happened in about five seconds. Nice. Funny now.
Anyway, that was my little sidetrack for the day.
