Oversharing

Sometimes I overshare.  It's a burden to friends and family and possibly straight-up obnoxious to strangers.  Sigh....

Like the other day when the Fedex lady showed up with a package.  I got super excited, as I'm apt to do if a brown cardboard box or a large gray bag arrives.


Me:  "Oh, yay!"  I'm so glad you're here!  That's the bikini bottoms I ordered to replace the ones I have on right now that I totally worn out!"

 Nice Fedex Lady:  "Oh, OK."  And then she giggled politely and pretty much sprinted back to her truck.


I didn't care...I had my new bikini bottoms and I would be ashamed no more by my tattered suit.

Only it wasn't my bikini bottoms, it was swim trunks I'd ordered for my kid.  So off I went, disappointed, in my threadbare duds.

And what happened at the pool that night?  My favorite eleven year old in the whole wide world looked at me and said, as I walked by the pool, "This isn't happening!!!"  And then he covered his eyes.

Yup, this mama is lookin' gooooooood!
