As I continue my education, I also continue making an ass of myself.
As usual school is kicking my ass. I’m struggling to balance work, school and personal hygiene. This morning I was in such a rush to leave the house that I didn’t brush my teeth. Shut up. That’s why Baby Jesus invented gum.
I realized my transgression halfway through my first class. While rummaging through my purse for gum I felt something that didn’t belong. Much to the surprise of my classmates I pulled out a giant cucumber.
Rather than explain it was from my mother’s garden and going to be my lunch I just kept my mouth shut. I knew I’d somehow end up talking about tossing a salad, AND there’s just no recovery from that. So instead I threw the cucumber back into my purse, unwrapped a piece of gum and continued taking notes because that’s the kind of Monday I’ve had.
Are you sure it was from a garden and not a plastic one that vibrates? Not that I would know anything about having one of THOSE in my purse ….
You are the only person I know that I wouldn’t have blinked if you had pulled a cucumber out of your purse.
… is sure to make the embarrassment go away — sounds like you need a glass of vino like so many of us XXs

HA! (I’m laughing *with* you, right?)
Cucumber for lunch? I’m not buying it.
hahaha! nice. i am also walking the fine line(s) between work, school, and hygiene. and eating. i never remember to bring snacks. at least you have your giant cucumber!
HAHAHAHA and to top off how funny the story & pic already were, you add in something about Tossing a Salad..!! And that is WHY I love you dearly!!
I freaking LOVE that purse! You always have the best purses. I think that fact alone makes up for the fact that you don’t brush your teeth and carry vegetables around with you.
