I'm going to embarrass myself but I'll still tell you what funny I pulled. It was Friday morning and our first morning in Tuscaloosa. My husband, bless his heart, is the world's worst to wait until the last minute to look for something that he needs, and in this case it was the phone charger for his cell phone (I mean, he could have charged it up while we were asleep right, LOL). Anyway, he had looked through the luggage and all the extra bags we had in the room and still couldn't find it so he woke me up to see if I knew where it was. Since he already gone through everything else I figured it had to be in one of the bags we had left in the car. I told him I would go see because (don't let him know I'm telling this, LOL) he was just in his underwear and couldn't go out to our car which was parked right outside our room. Thankfully we were on the bottom floor. I was wearing my nightgown which went to the floor. This gown had spaghetti straps and it was a purple background leopard print gown. I told Steve "I'm decent and hopefully no one will come out when I go to the car." So I opened the door and carefully looked every direction. Seeing no one I went ahead and started to our car and suddenly, doggone it, the door to the room next door opened up and this man came walking out. Needless to say he had a surprised look on his face. I instinctly covered my arms across my chest and said "Excuse me!" My face was turning blood red and my hair looked like PeeWee Herman!! I ran to the car, thankfully found the bag with the charger in and ran back to the room as fast as I could!! I never did see that gentleman again Thank the Lord!!! My husband was, of course, standing there getting a hoot and a holler out of it. :) :) That night when I put my nightgown back on to get ready for bed he was kidding me and said "Have you got anywhere else to go hon?" I just looked at him and said "Meow". Ha! Ha! Life can be full of surprises can't it? I hope this will give someone a good chuckle. I hope no one is having a bad day but if you are maybe this will cheer you up, I sure hope so. God Bless You All and Have a Wonderful Evening! SheliaLee

Thanks for the best response. Yes, I had a very nice vacation. Got in the ocean for the first time and jumped the waves. Was at the beach everyday. Vacation way to fast.Already been back to work a week. Probably be another year before I get to take another vacation like that again. Though it was a cheap vacation, my photographer friend, he did the cooking, I made the salads, and did the dishes and my brother paid for the food and let us stay at his place. The only expense we had was the gas to get there and back.

Oh mercy, it was the first time anything like that had happened to me before, but no it was out of my control. But if I ever have to go out like that again I'll put a jacket or something on LOL.

I totally enjoyed this story. I have had this happen to me before. I went out to get my newspaper one morning at six in the morning. There is never anyone on my street that early. However, this one day my neighbor was going to work late. I was dress ok but my hair was sticking striaght up in the air. My neighbor is also a good friend of mine and he has not let me live that day down. Now I never leave my house no matter what before I brush my hair and am completely dressed.

I know what you mean sizzle, LOL. If I ever have to go out like that again, I'll make sure I have at least a jacket. But hopefully I'll never be in that situation again.
