losing my head


I had the hardest time getting a shot of my whole body this evening.  I assure you I have not lost my head for reals. I have been writing an awful lot though. I am just going to give my brain a break.  Lovely Hump-day everyone!  ( mean like, as in the middle of the week, Wednesday sort of hump.  You know what's funny! When I was very young I was sitting in the back of the car while my mom was driving and I asked her "Mom, what does hump mean?" because I had heard some kids using that word around school and I was pretty sure it meant something naughty but my mom just said "oh, hump?  you mean like a hump in the road?  Like a speed bump?  You know what a hump is. right?"  and that made me more curious about the word since I could tell my mom was pretty uncomfortable about this whole conversation and if it only means like, a hump in the street then why would she be acting so weird?  But I dropped it.  I just asked my friends the next day and they told me all about it.  Whoa.)  Seriously though, I just mean like happy Wednesday! We are half way to the weekend!  Whoo hoo!  And Claire from Casual Ambiguity is coming to my house while she is on her whirlwind trip though the States, all the way from Australia!  So excited!

top, shoes, most bracelets: thrifted
jeans: levis

That's hysterical. I had a similar experience learning why the term Hump Day seemed to elicit giggles from my friends.

Those shoes are awesome, by the way! I love the jeans rolled up like that too. You wear things (and look fantastic in them!) that I'm terrified to try! I really wish I had your (well-deserved) confidence!

LOL Your story had me cracking right up. It's true though that parents acted really awkward and funny when you asked them about potentially naughty words.

Do you have a similar experience with your kid??

Love from Toronto, Canada.

Carolyn said...

Great story! And I have my own funny memories of when my kids asked me those sorts of questions... when you're least prepared, or in the supermarket queue or some such... Laugh!
Love how your shoes match your top in pattern as well as colour. And hope you have fun with your Aussie friend!
