Recent clueless moment #1: DD18 and I were in a public restroom this past weekend. When she came out of the stall, she went over to the sink to wash her hands. She pressed the soap dispenser, got a dab of soap on her hands, then held her hands under the faucet and waited. No water came out. She waved her hands back and forth, and waited some more. Still no water came out.
I was washing my hands at the sink beside her, where water was flowing just fine. Exasperated, she looked at me said, "What the heck!?!? Mine must be broken." I told her I didn't think so. It was only then that she noticed the sink had hot and cold handles and wasn't one of the automatic sinks that most restrooms seem to have.
We had a good laugh over that one!
Recent clueless moment #2: During the same weekend trip, my daughter and I stopped for a bite to eat. Since we left the main highway, the GPS device proceeded to recalculate the route. I pulled into a parking space and turned the car off. The voice on the GPS kept talking, and I looked at my daughter and said, "OMG! She's STILL talking and the car is turned off!" For some reason, I couldn't understand why the voice kept talking. Didn't "she" know I had parked and turned off the car.
My daughter just looked at me and sighed. She knows I have a difficult time with technology.
Last week's clueless moment: Well, one of them anyway.
Our older daughter and 10 week old grandson were visiting at our house. At one point, I went to check on him as he slept in the pack n' play. He was wearing a green sleeper, and the way his little legs were sprawled, he reminded me of a frog. I told my daughter to go look at him, especially his "back legs". She looked at me like, "What back legs?!?!"
Anyone care to share their own recent clueless moments?
