When life gives you a bowl full of cherries...make cherry pie! (and send some to Lenny)
I know you expect me to write posts full of wisdom, but today I've got nothing. Cross my heart hope to die stick a needle in my thigh.
Do any of you or your characters accidentally get things mixed up? This week I locked my keys in the car, in the pump line at a gas station. I had to call a locksmith. (So, if you were wondering, my hair is naturally blond.)

I know I get things mixed up . . . but my characters not as often. It would be interesting to see what kind of plot could come out of a mix-up, though.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear you had to call a locksmith!
OH, man! I've locked my keys too, but luckily I have Onstar!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, Sharon!
(where is that photo from?)
I get things mixed up a lot. Have a good weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThere are days when I even mix up what I'm confused about!!!
ReplyDeleteI locked my self out of the car once with the engine running. *face palm*
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend. Hope you find it inspiring!
ugh. Days like that drive me crazy. Hopefully the people around you were nice about it!
ReplyDeleteHave a great (and uneventful!) weekend! :)
You know what - all this time and I just realised your blog pic is a Fullers' Pub!??!?! How cool is that!?!?
ReplyDeleteYay!! Oh no!! You locked yourself out of your car! Oh dear - glad that ended well! Of course you're a natural blonde - what are you trying to insuate!??!?
My sister and I locked ourselves out and our cats on the very first day we moved to our new home. The cats were brought in, my sister and I walked out, shut the door and couldn't find the keys. Nice neighbour rang the fire brigade. These big firemen came stomping up our driveway peering through the windows and saying to us "did you know there's cats in the house?" And when we said, yes, there's five, they couldn't believe it and we could already see them think "crazy cat ladies alert"!
Take care

hi miss sharon! yep! for sure i mess stuff up lots. you already know what i did this week. ack! but im not saying cause im gonna do a post on it. for sure im gonna have a chunk of that cherry pie. :)
ReplyDelete...hugs from lenny
Oh, what a bummer to lock yourself out of your car. Well, I've had many moments like that in my life. I'm not blonde, but I guess I am on the inside. My list of mess-ups is way too long to put in a comment! Hope you have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon .. don't we all - frustrating to say the least - the only advantage is the blond is well settled in!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling more relaxed now -enjoy the weekend .. cheers Hilary
we all need these kinds of posts to see we arent the only ones these things happen to =)
ReplyDeleteI get things mixed up all the time - I blame it on being too busy, but I know it's just cause...
ReplyDeleteOh yay! Thank you so much for the shout out and for your kind words! :)
ReplyDeleteI am forever mixing things up. Not good!
Oh yes, mixing up is all too easy. All you have to do is take certain crucial steps out of order, and whammo.
ReplyDeleteGet things mixed up? Welcome to my life, my dear...
ReplyDeleteMy characters get things mixed all the time like I do. I'm glad you got your keys back!
ReplyDeleteI've locked the keys in my hubby's semi-truck in the middle of the night (about 2 am that is) and we found a way to retrieve them. My hair is black. Hmmmm... ;)

Can Alex save Winter from the darkness that hunts her?
YA Paranormal Romance, Darkspell coming fall of 2011!
Can so relate to your experience. Last Saturday I dropped my daughter at high school swim, but it got moved. She tried to call me but my cell phone was dead. So she called her dad and he got a flat tire on the way. They got a hold of me once I got home. Not a great day.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting more things mixed up the older I get. For the first time this year, I locked myself out of my car. Like you, this happened at a gas station.
ReplyDeleteI love the gigantic cherry.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
My specialty is running out of gas. Apparently the Ph.D. doesn't completely compensate for the blonde. :)
ReplyDeleteI get things mixed up all the time. It's great to meet you.
ReplyDeleteDang, you're good! hehe
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I leave the living room knowing what I want to retrieve in the kitchen, by the time I arrive at my destination (the kitchen), I have completely forgotten what I came there for. So I grab a Reese and munch out, wondering if Lenny is eating one too.
Shhhh. Don't spread it around that I'm a total daffy ditz!
Congrads Talli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool photo Sharon! I love that big cherry!
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate when you do something frustrating like lock your keys in your car! I did that once a long time ago. Now I have "OnStar" in my car and don't have to worry about it.
Wishing you a happy week!

I do stuff like you do all the time. Once I found my keys in my own hands after searching for them for way too long. I guess I'm also a natural blond.
ReplyDeleteLove that photo! (How does that cherry stay up there?) One of my favorite "duh" moments is looking all over for my glasses when they're on top of my head. I've done it a few times.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about the keys! I hate when things like that happen! I've locked myself out of the house with all my little ones. That was a long day.
ReplyDeleteMy sister-in-law lost her keys twice, called a locksmith twice, and later--both times-- found the keys in her pocket. If that makes you feel better. And she was only blond as a child. :)
ReplyDeleteHang in there, Sharon!
Amy
If I had some cherry pie, I'd definitely send some to Lenny. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day, Sharon!
What a cool picture, though! And ooof about the car keys. NOT fun. :(
ReplyDeleteEveryone's been there. Don't worry. Locked myself out of my room back at university more than once! Thanks for the links. :)
ReplyDeleteEver since I've dyed my hair blonde, I do dumber things. :o) Maybe it is true about the color? Kidding!
ReplyDeleteCharacters gain dimension when they do (pertinent to plot) things us normal people do.
Have a great night!
I read a blog where the writer sometimes makes references to being "blonder than she pays to be" - always gets a smile out of me! I can up you one: I locked my keys in the car once with a toddler in the baby strapped into carseats in the back, out of reach of the locking mechanism to help me! Fortunately they slept through the waiting for the locksmith part).
