Totally Awkward Tuesday: Bloggy Playdate Gone Awry

Remember that playdate that ended in playdoh boogers getting blown all over Ann Rants' kitchen? Well, first go read that, if you haven't before.... I'll wait right here. *whistle, whistle* (Braja whistles when she doesn't have anything say, btw; you might've seen her leave it as a comment on your blog someday and said "what the heck does THAT mean??" but now you know. :)

The playdate was hoot; Ann and I talked all things blog, kids, marriage, and mid-life crisis. Interspersed with a delicious salad and loads of laughter.

After my boys destroyed her kitchen with the playdoh, it was time to hightail it out of there as quickly as possible make a graceful exit.

Gabbing away, a mile a minute, I am stuffing the Animal into his coat, scanning the area for his boots, hats, mittens, etc., as Ann rounds the corner to help me collect stuff and get me out of the house say goodbye.

She stops and I swear to God that one of her eyebrows lifted about 3/4 of an inch higher than the other. She folds her arms across her chest and raises her chin at me while looking at the Animal. She says, "Um, Amy...."

I look down at the Animal. Only it ISN'T the Animal. It is Ann's Two-Year-Old that I have manhandled into my toddler's outerwear!!

I howl, "OH No I didn't!!!" As Ann doubles over simultaneously laughing and cradling her almost-absconded-with-Precious.

I really do need to pay attention better when I'm flapping my gums. I mean I almost kidnapped my friend's kid! ;-) Awkward!

Thank you to Tovah Darling for hosting the fab Totally Awkward Tuesday! (Why more people aren't getting into this Mr. Linky that she hosts is a mystery to me!!) Go join in the fun of self-deprecation at its finest!!
