Awkward & Awesome Thursday

It was brought to my attention by Becca Barclay that there is a day called “Awkward and Awesome Thursday.” Started over at The DayBook, it’s essentially a post highlighting both the awkward and awesome moments that happened to you during the week.

Awkward…:

When I was home alone, and I burnt my hand while making my husband a delicious meal. The burn wasn’t awkward, but when I started to scream silently and flail my arms around, it got awkward.

When a certain person continues to tell me the same story (yesterday, I think it was the 8th time). And each time it still doesn’t make sense. And I’m so confused. And I just nod and kind of smile trying to strike an expression of amused.

Cooking Spaghetti Squash for the first time.

When a semi-accquiantance in another state asks if their girlfriend can stay at your apartment. After saying yes, the person follows up with a text that says “Do you have any cats or large dogs?” After replying no, the girlfriend decides to stay elsewhere. Fair enough.

When I tell someone to text me their number and I accidentally make excessive fake typing gestures with my thumbs.

Awesome!:

Finally feeling like I’m accomplishing stuff at work.
