Wednesday night, we got to go see the National Broadway Tour of Mary Poppins. It was....kind of....eh....not well written. But the scenery and special effects (that Josh got to be a part of) were absolutely fantastic! It was a nice night; we went to PF Chang's for dinner before with Jason and Di Anna. Nothing could spoil my night until.......
Cue the dramatic music.
We were standing up during the curtain call watching the cast sing, and all of the sudden, air cannons come out and confetti goes everywhere. At that moment, something hits me on top of the head.
I pat my head, and my hand sticks. It's wet. And gooey. I'm about to hurl. Someone's gum had flown out of their mouth onto the top of my head.
Gross, right? I was freaking out!
All day yesterday, I was coating my hair in peanut butter, rubbing ice cubes on my hair, and taking constant showers. First to try and condition the gum out, then subsequent showers to remove the peanut smell. It's a good thing we don't have a dog, or it would have tried to eat my head. Now, mind you, I'm doing all of these things whilst crying and shouting, "Why me?!"
OK, maybe there wasn't wailing and gnashing of teeth, but I was still pretty blue all day.
Next time I go to the North Charleston Peforming Arts Center, I'm wearing a helmet.
Good, no blog would ever be complete without an entry titled "A Sticky Situation". Kind of like how no sitcom in the 80's would be complete without an episode extolling the dangers of drugs.
ReplyDeleteI know! That was going through my mind. Then, I remembered that it deals with gum, and gum is sticky! Get it? It's really clever.
ReplyDeleteKeeping with the 80's sitcom theme, next week will feature a very special episode.
