What day is this?

     Okay, so jet lag got to me.  My last post was for a Friday but it was really Wednesday eve.  Today is Thursday, I am tired, but having a great time.  We went to the new WW II memorial today it is beautiful, but my favorite was the Korean War memorial.  I love the soldiers statues walking through the park.  So mesmerizing.  I thoroughly embarrassed myself in the subway today.  We were trying to get on during rush hour and I was not seated when the train started.  I was thrown off balance into a strange man's lap.  I grabbed his leg and squeezed hard as I went down trying get my balance, then I face planted in his crotch.  Yep, zipper fly blue jeans right into my face.  He helped me upright myself and asked me where I was from .  I told him Idaho and apologized.  My family was in hysterics.  I said I was not used to the subway in Idaho I was used to riding a horse!  I thought this was a cute way to diffuse the situation.  He said he would take that as a compliment.  I shut up after that, know matter what I said it would have been taken the wrong way by everyone.  I am a terrible klutz!
     I am looking forward to a new month and when I get home I am going to burn up my debt!

Have a great and productive day!

  1. Oh no! That completely sounds like something that only happens in the movies! I must admit I did have a chuckle... but I feel bad. :)

  2. LOL! I'm sorry, I laughed too! It was pretty funny. The Korean War memorial IS impressive isn't it? I thought it was very striking when I saw it. We went in the winter and it was snowing and it actually seemed as if they were moving through the snow. Glad you are enjoying your time there...
