Just a random (reoccurring) incident that I thought I'd share:
A few fun facts before the story:
1. Friday is garbage day in our neighborhood
2. I am 22 weeks pregnant
3. Bad smells have always made me gag. Just ask my sister.
4. I walk 2 miles around the neighborhood everyday.
Ok, now the story.
It never fails that at least three garbage trucks pass me on my Friday walks...no matter what time of day I go! If someone, anyone, just happened to be sitting on their front porch enjoying the morning paper and coffee (or looked out their front window to check the weather), when the previously mentioned incident occurred, they would most definitely witness the following order of events:
Kelly briskly walking enjoying the beautiful day...garbage truck driving slooowly by...Kelly holding breath...juicey junk dripping in long trail behind truck...Kelly turning many shades of green...wind blowing...Kelly breathing a teensy-tiny bit...horrible nasty disgusting smell wafting through the air...Kelly gagging.....gagging...swallowing...gagging...swallowing...Kelly walking even more briskly, almost running to get away from the incredibly horrible smell!
It's quite a sight I'm sure.

Happy Friday!
I am seriously *hurting* from laughing SO SO SO hard! Mom and I just had a hilarious time reading this! You are just so awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I can totally see it all! :)
Love and miss you!
Hahaha!! I love it! I don't miss that part of pregnancy one bit - with my last one I would actually gag at the smell of coffee. Now if that isn't cruel, I don't know what is! :P
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, by the way! Babies are exciting!!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!
ReplyDeleteWhat a [sadly] funny story! I can't imagine!! Being pregnant and enduring that - wow! Haha! Thanks for sharing!
Girl - I've been there! Those pregncny smells are THE WORST! For me, it was the smell of raw chicken (couldn't even cook it) and the smell of a loaf of bread (don't ask me about that one, I just remember getting so gagged out over it).
ReplyDeleteI would love to have been your neighbor, drink my coffee, witnessing your gagtastic moments :)
Ooh yuk! I gag at anything slightly gross in the fridge (read: food that I haven't chucked out yet) so I feel your pain! Blessings on your random weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations... and
ReplyDeleteoh dear! That does not sound fun at all. I too am a gagger of smelly things....and cannot imagine being pregnant and that happening! But oh my your description was fabulous and oh so funny.
At least it's only one day a week?!?!
