Julie Moments

My friends call them "Julie moments". From when they have said "that was a Julie moment",I take it to mean that it is usually when something awkward, random, or embarrassing happens to me. I suppose these happen at a higher frequency in my life so that is why they get a special label.

Well, I had a "Julie-moment" the other day at a Thai restaurant. My friend was talking about guys. She was saying, "I hope the man I marry understands how clumsy I am." While nodding my head in agreement, I managed to angle my fork in just the right direction so that most of the food from it landed on my lap.

For shame, I didn't want her point proven that fast.

That's one of the many things I miss about being around you! Don't ever lose that "genuineness"!

Julie may I clarify that "Julie moments" are moments that if it were happening to someone other than Julie, that someone would look awkward and embarassed. However they are "Julie moments" because only Julie can pull it off with such grace and not miss a beat. You are special! :)
