A Funny Story..Although at the Time I Didn't Think It Was Funny At All!!
A funny story just came to mind and I decided to share it with you just for the heck of it:) Now I can laugh about it years later, but at the time I thought I'd surely die of embarassment!
Almost every weekend when I was a teenager, I'd go to the skating rink, because it was the cool thing to do. It was a place to hang out and act cool and show off for the boys:) One Saturday, my friend needed to go pee, and of course as you know, when a girl goes to a public bathroom she always asks her friends to go with her. I skated in there and hung out fixing my makeup, brushing my hair, etc. till she was done. I rolled out of there and headed back to the rink to strut my stuff. I could hear this voice somewhere behind me yelling "Stop!", "Hey Girl", etc., but there were so many people there I didn't even think the voice was talking to me. I got out to the rink and starting around the oval. I could hear the voice still yelling and people laughing. As I rounded the oval, I could see something white out of the corner of my eye. Imagine my complete embarassment when I saw the owner lady running behind me with a massive amounts of toilet paper in her arms, yelling at me to stop! Seems that somehow my skate wheels had gotten caught in a roll of toilet paper and I was dragging the whole roll behind me from the bathroom all the way to the rink!! So there I stand, in my bell bottoms and Pink Floyd shirt, trying to act all cool...WITH TOILET PAPER HANGING FROM MY SKATE!! I wanted to sink right into the wood work, that's for sure. Vowed I'd never be able to show my face there again, but the next weekend, I changed my mind and was back out on the floor:)
Hope you enjoyed my story..it's quite a tale:)

Angie, that was so funny! I enjoy your blogs. It's such a good connection, journal, fun, and a way to get things off your chest. We can thank Larry Brown for getting us going. I only wish I had the time to write! I love it so and it's such an outlet and friend. I miss your teenage years, they went by way too fast. I was a fresh bud, then a blooming rose, and now I feel like a shrinking violet - - my social life is quite quiet!
Love you,
MOM
