funny stories friday

So… I have the habit of saying goofy things when not intending to do so.  When I was younger, probably middle school age, My great grandfather had just passed away and my mom told me he was being buried in a mausoleum (yes I had to check the spelling on that one).  So I rightly responded, “is he Muslim?”  After a good long laugh at my stupidity innocence, she explained to me what a mausoleum was.  I learned that my great grandfather was not Muslim (I didn’t think he was anyways).

  or  ?

In more recent days, on the way home from a very loud - yet awesome - Toby Mac Concert, I was checking my ear drums for permanent damage, making sure I would be able to hear again.  I told Mike, “I think my ear drums need to be moisturized.”  He said I had to add that to the list of things Katie says without thinking.

So to tell a story on Mike =) I was sitting in a large client meeting earlier this week, when I realized that Mike had called me twice on his way into work (which is not normal). Here is the text message sequence that followed:

Me: Is everything ok?

Mike: Yeah, took out my contact on the way to work [45 minute drive in a stick shift car], tried to put it on my tongue, thought I had swallowed it

Mike: Checked the car at work, could not find it, drove home [45 min drive], tried to induce vomit, no contact came up, so thought I might have inhaled it

Mike: so put in a back up lens, then checked the car one last time

Mike: saw a small shiny glimmer in between the seat and center console

Mike: so cleaned it up, took out the replacement, put in the original, and drove back to work [45 min drive], got in around 9:45, long morning

Me: [hahahhaha] glad you found it

 

 

Plus the best video I’ve seen recently

 

I hope each of you have a wonderful weekend and a happy Friday!

  1. You know, Mike always was good with both losing and finding his contact lenses. He once lost one in the high school pool and somehow managed to find it... so crazy.

    Plus, that video is hilarious! It was even on the national news this week during their morning newscast!
