Will regret posting this for the rest of my life
Thursday, April 17, 2008 at 12:57PM It's never a good day when you emerge from sleep, put on the first clothing you can find on the floor, give the baby to Ferris, put the dog on the leash, and head out into the wet foggy morning before the sun is fully up. Ferris usually takes care of Jackson in the morning, but for some reason I got wrangled into it.
Off I went across the street into the muddy park when I looked up and saw a bright blue spot on the ground about 40 feet away. I wasn't wearing my glasses so I had to move closer to get a better inspection. Underwear...a woman's underwear...geeeeerrrrosss...some poor girl lost her underwear in the park...trying not to think about how a woman lost her underwear in the park...must think of a way to dispose of said underwear before little kids take over in a few hours...find a stick...move in...holy crap those are MY UNDERWEAR!
No...yes...noooooooooo!
How in the SAM HELL did my drawers find their way clear out here? HOLY CRAP THOSE ARE MY UNDERWEAR! Grab drawers, dispose of drawers, yank Jackson back into the house, wake Ferris.
"I found my underwear in the park!"
"Those were yours?"
"You knew about this?"
"They've been there since yesterday."
"MY NEIGHBORS HAVE BEEN STOMPING AROUND MY UNDERWEAR IN THE PARK FOR TWO DAYS?"
"Seems that way."
Mortified beyond anything you can possibly imagine, Ferris and I poured over every detail like we were part of a very bad, VERY BAD, episode of CSI. From what we could gather, Ferris put on a pair of flannel PJ bottoms the day before when he took Jackson out in the morning. The PJs were folded atop a stack of laundry which must have been adjacent to the pile of my lady things. Apparently, one of my lady things static stuck to the PJs and took a very ominous ride out into the daylight and found their way onto the muddy ground in the park. WHERE THEY WERE KINDLY INTRODUCED TO MY ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR TWO DAYS!
Unbe-FRIGGIN-lievable.

Steph - I saw a link to your blog on Sarah's and thought I'd say Hi. I have read a couple of your postings and have seen your great pictures. Can you believe it's been 12 years since High School? I hope things continue to go well for you and John (well except for the underwear thing!) Jolie
My wife once found one of her socks on the sidewalk. I suspect the cause was the same.
This is a really great story.
I bet there were cute little panties. Hilarious.
This is my favorite blog post. Ever. So damn hilarious! Are you sure someone didn't break in and steal your undies?? Scary and weird. Tell Ferris to stop wearing your underwear! :)
That was great! I wish I had a funny story like that to share.
Hi there may I use some of the insight from this entry if I link back to you?
