Today's Chuckles
1. Overcoat
2. Sunglasses
------------------------------
Overcoat
A meek little fellow in a restaurant timidly
touched the arm of a man putting on an overcoat.
"Excuse me," he said, "but do you happen to be
Mr. Smith of Newport?"
"No, I'm not," answered the man impatiently.
"Oh, well you see," continued the first man,
"I am, and that's his overcoat you're putting on."

Sunglasses
by Janet Mackin Hunt
So this morning I loaded everything we would need for
the day in the trunk of the car - including my sunglasses
and a birthday present for Hailey's friend (we went to his
party right after the parade).
I am at the parade and realize I don't have my sunglasses.
Oh well, no big deal.
We get to the party and I forget all about the glasses.
Hailey and her friends are having a blast. Then comes present
time. You guessed it - we got this kid a spiderman thing, a
lego thing, and - surprise! - some sunglasses!
They were in his present bag!
Now I don't really know these kids or the other parents that
were there all too well - this is one of Hailey's new first
grade friends - so the goal here is for her to make friends,
be normal, and not have the "weird mom" who makes a scene.
His grandpa remarked, "Wow, and those are some nice sunglasses
too! What do you say, buddy?"
Uhm - #awkward - I didn't know them so I didn't want to jump up
and say, "Yah, um, those aren't actually supposed to be his
present. They're mine." I wasn't about to take a "gift" from a
little kid that I hardly know. He was wearing them for awhile
and really seemed to like them, too!
And the whole rest of the party, there they are, laying on the
table with the transformers, Nerf guns, ninja turtles and all
of the other gifts...and I am there, afraid to take them back
for fear another mom will see me and think Hailey's mom is a
klepto who steals from little kids at their birthday party and
then my kid will never get invited to anything again...
Oh well - reason number 968 why I will only buy cheap sunglasses
until the girls are older! Enjoy them, kid! LOL!
