Keep On Walking

Ever have one of those moments where you want to crawl in a hole and hide?

Well, I had one of them yesterday.

And, surprisingly, it had nothing to do with my kids. Shocking, right?!

I'm leaving Costco and it's super crowded. I'm outside and there seems to be some kind of party going on (not really but there was a large group of people standing around talking.)

Anywho, I pull my car keys out of my purse and push my way through.

I must have dropped something because an older gentleman poked me and said "Miss, you dropped something."

I looked down and it was a tampon. And, it was laying right in the middle of the foreamentioned party of people.

For a split second, I thought about ignoring it and keep on walking.

But, he poked me again and repeated himself.

I groaned and walked back and nonchalantly picked it up and shoved it into my purse.

I'm sure that everyone was looking at me but I wouldn't know because I kept my head down and just kept on moving.

And, before you ask, no...I didn't take a picture. I just wanted to get out of there. I don't think that the man knew what it was. LOL.

And, then I got into the car and cracked up. Because, it was funny and I do amuse myself.

Kim - drop your tampon with pride. NOw really - why do women feel the need to hide this stuff - it's not like people don't know that it happens - women menstruate - deal with it. :p :)

ROFL! I would have loved to have seen the look on your face. But wait, that's happened to me too. My son pulled one out of my purse at the restaurant with the male waiter standing there and asked "Mom, what's this?"

ROTFLMAO!!! That is hilarious! I've got one better than that...as a reward for some of our really great kids, my teammate and I took them outside to play earlier this year. One of them dared me to do a cartwheel...I had to in order to save face in front of them. I did one on the track and because it was Feb. I had on a blazer style jacket. I had a tampon in the pocket that went flying when I cartwheeled...in front of about 15 seventh grade boys! UGH! :)
