Dumb things of the day

Typically when I take my dog out it is after I have gotten ready and I am just about to leave the house. Yesterday, he just couldn't wait. So before I was ready, I ran down the stairs, threw on his leash, grabbed my jacket and ran out the door. As I was standing out there, my neighbor walked out and we proceeded to have a conversation. Mind you this is someone I hang out with! We chatted and as I began to walk back inside, I remebered that I had a banana clip (yes, I use a bannana clip--in the privacy of my own home--in the morning to hold my hair back) on top of my head in a very JAWS shark-like fashion. Good Day to you neighbor! I know you think I am hot now!

So then, I am driving to work and I have to merge with traffic at a stop sign--something I hate having to do because in some towns, people just don't believe they should have to let other people in "their" lane. So I am holding my travel coffee mug and drinking away and Mr. Nice Driver lets me in and rather than wave, which you should typically do to someone who is following the proper driving courtesy rule book, I naturally give him the 'ole "CHEERS" signal with my travel mug. As if we were in an Irish pub. What was I thinking? Well, I suppose I was thinking "Yo, ho, ho and a bottle of Rum". I have no idea what I was thinking. But hopefully it started his day off at 7:20 am with a laugh as well.
