"MESSAGE OF THE DAY" FROM OJ SIMPSON
I had dinner with a friend last night who shared with me what I like to call a “only in LA” moment. The moment turned out to be so incredibly ironic, that I asked him for permission to share it on my blog.
My friend said he had dinner one night (in Hollywood) with OJ Simpson and a couple of other people. This was a few years before OJ (allegedly) butchered his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson and...

TIME MAGAZINE #FAIL

Chicken Pox or Flea Bites?
+++Conversation last night with my 4 year old son in our front yard+++
4YO: Mommy look! (He had pulled up t-shirt and was pointing at his chest/stomach).
Me: Hmmm... you have lots of red bumps.
Me: (turns to my neighbor) These aren't chicken pox are they?
Neighbor: He's vaccinated right?
Me: Yes.
Neighbor: Then no, probably just some bites.
Me: (looking at my kid) you are fine, go play.
+++Fast forward to a phone call that I received today at work from my kids preschool+++
Me: Hi, this is Tara.
Preschool: Hi Tara, this is _____ from _____ school. Your son is with me here in the office.
Me: What? Is he okay?
Preschool: I'm not sure. He pulled up his t-shirt in class this morning and said that he has chicken pox.
Me: (laughing) Really?
Preschool: Yes. He does have quite a few bumps.
Me: (laughing harder)
Preschool: He said that you told him that he had chicken pox.
Me: No... no. He doesn't have chicken pox. He has fleas.
Preschool: Oh good. I'll send him back to class.
