Brainless Brian


On Tuesday I had a couple of final exams, and after I got home from school, I was in a little bit of hot water. You see, Wicked is currently playing at the Durham Performing Arts Center, and I had been instructed on numerous occasions that every night until we won tickets, Lindsay and I would be going to the ticket lottery. As it turns out, Tuesday was such a day, and I forgot. Lindsay was incredulous that I could forget something we had talked about so many times. I tried to explain that although I'm actually a pretty decent listener, I'm a really bad remember-er (I know that's not a word, just work with me here). Fast forward to yesterday (Friday). We had just spent a pretty late night hanging out with some friends, and we all slept in a bit. Lindsay was in a hurry to get to work, and since we only have one car, she needed to drop me off at school before she went in. We grabbed everything we needed and ran out to the car. On the drive to school I was finishing getting ready, putting in my contact lenses, putting on my belt, when it hit me. I forgot my shoes. That's right kids, the bad remember-er forgot his own darn shoes. So I walked around the school in socks all day, and got a few funny looks, but in the end it might have been worth it since it proved to Lindsay, that yes, sometimes I really am, Brainless Brian.


After making this post, I got all excited about Garbage Pail Kids, here are a couple more Brians

I love those Garbage Pail Kids cards! We were just reminiscing about those yesterday. And that's funny about the shoes! But you're not alone-- my husband Pace has gone to church without any shoes! Except he did it on purpose because we were visiting his fam in NC and he didn't want to pack his church shoes. Haha! P.S. At my sister's bridal shower, I just saw Julie for the first time in 8 years! That was fun. :)
