dumb dumb

i went to see the sisterhood of the traveling pants with siobhan today. before the movie, i made a quick trip to larry's market for some bulk candy. i wanted some chocolate covered raisins and the bin they were in was not one with a scoop. there was this funnel-like thing at the bottom, where the candy is supposed to exit. i stood there for two minutes too long figuring out how to get the candy out of the holder and into my plastic bag. somehow, i had failed to see the black plastic pull-down handle that would release the candy. i was standing there trying to pull/push the stationary plastic funnel. i was almost on the verge of asking for assistance, but luckily, the light bulb went "ding!" the larry's market people would've for sure looked at me like i was dumb. heck, i felt dumb and then was amused by my slowness.

later, we were at chris's apartment trying on our bridesmaid dresses and i had hung the dress on their wood/screen panel thing. what i failed to realize was that very close by, was chris's painting that was drying. so, oil paint got onto the plastic bag that was holding the dresses and i totally didn't notice. and so, when i took my dress out of the bag, some oil paint smeared on it. it was truly sad. now i'm hoping that the dry cleaners will be able to get it out, or at the very least, make it less notable.

i am a tool.
