La Palma and the Dryer Sheet


So this blog is rapidly turning into Mollie's interesting and awkward moments.
Next moment came at dinner with Mom, Shannon, Angela and I. We were all at La Palma laughing, eating having a great time when all of a sudden in the middle of all of us eating i feel something in my pant leg.
I lean down to figure out what it is, and discover a dryer sheet STILL in my pant leg from pulling it out of the dryer ( keep in mind, i had also worked out in these black pants and didn't feel it then..only felt it at dinner)
I proceed to pull it out and saying nothing, hold it up in front of Shannon. I then say, look what i pulled out of my pants. She laughed hysterically as did Ang and Mom.
What can i say...God put me on this earth to be an entertainer:)

Sandwich Saga part 2


Many of you might recall my sandwich story from about a month ago. The sandwich war that was fought. Sandwich down. Well, on Tuesdsay another such story occurred. Once again for the board meeting i was asked to get sandwiches, so i did...but THIS time i was thinking ahead and asked the sandwiches to be cut ahead of time! So smart:)
With those plastic trays carrying the sandwiches, it's important to hold them from the bottom so the weight of the sandwiches doesn't detach the top of the tray and the sandwiches do not fall into peril.
As i was walking out to the car the top of the sandwich tray started to come apart from the bottom. I thought, no worries, i can attach it back together with a snap in the car. Since the top was off, i decided to help myself to one of the smaller sandwiches on the side ( since i myself was going in to a meeting and wouldn't be out for about an hour and a half). I enjoyed my tasty bit of sandwich and then tried to attach the top plastic part back to the bottom....it wouldn't fasten. It had to be on a FLAT surface to fasten together correctly. Problem. It would appear to the rest of the meeting that i had been into the sandwiches if i came back to the office with the top of the tray askew. I tried everything i could...sitting the tray awkwardly in my lap, sitting it on the passenger seat next to me...nothing worked. It would not fasten together....Finally i had to get out of my car and in the parking lot of Safeway..set the tray on the ground of the parking lot and fasten it. It fastened with a quick snap and i was on display for all of Hermiston, crouching on the ground fastening a sandwich tray together.
Sheesh. At least no sandwich wars were fought on this front...and i got to eat a tasty sandwich out of the deal:)

The Infamous Barf Story

So by now all my stories are kind of legendary. Random things happen to me, and they are usually hilarious. I am now going to share the latest story. The infamous barf story. SO i went to the beach last weekend with manfriend and my cousin and his girlfriend, and of course the fam was there! So anyway, great weekend, had a blast! Manfriend and i were driving back to Portland Sunday afternoon...and i started feeling NOT so great. By around Salem i was like barely holding it in....yikes. I am finally like..PULL OVER i'm going to spew. He like pulls over in this weird pullout field thing around Brooks. I like fall out of the car and am throwing up violently. He rolls down the window to be funny and throw some jokes in, i am not so amused. I am like ROLL UP THE WINDOW ( the reason i yelled to vehnemently was because when one throws up with that much force, one cannot always hold in flatulance that can come out...yes i was farting and barfing. And manfriend and i are still in early relatinoship phase. Not prime time to reveal this about myself) I consequently get barf on my sweats and my hoody...so attractive. I pull myself into the car, only to exit one more time to let some more fly. Manfriend is finding this hilarious by the way. So i'm feeling better the rest of the way to Portland...feeling great actually! Our plans had been to get Sushi before i headed back home, manfriend was like "Maybe sushi on a sick stomach..not such a great plan" I am like " I NEVER get good sushi, and i feel great! We are going" So we go, yes i walk into the restaurant with barf hoody on...i'm just so classy like that. We eat... A LOT....my meal included fried calamari...so delicious. About 20 minutes after we got back from sushi...stomach started to gurgle....not feeling great...and the great barf fest of 2009 starts again. But THIS time i made it to the bathroom....and the toilet. Fine fine...but when i was washing my hands some more came out....in the sink.....and they were whole pieces of calamari. I tried to unclog the drain by using bobby pins because i was so embarassed...couldn't do it. So manfriend had to like use a plunger on it and tons of drano...and i was mortified. Very embarassing......And then he sent me flowers the next day to make me feel better:) So apparently i didn't scare him off with barf fest 2009!
