One Friend's Trash Is...Well, Another Friend's Trash?

Okay, so you know how you tell someone a story that you just think is pee-your-pants funny, and the other person looks at you like you just peed your pants? Well, this might be that kind of story. Or...you might pee your pants. So, consider yourself warned either way.

So I've been lending one of my friends some baby clothes, and she's been giving them back to me a little at a time. Her daughter still fits into these clothes, but I think she just wants an excuse to go shopping...Or maybe this is her way of slowly telling me that she thinks the clothes my daughters wore are hideous. Either way, she's been really sweet about it, and I'm happy to loan out my daughters' hideous clothes to whomever will take them off my hands for a little while.

At any rate (a phrase I use that always gets a chuckle out of my dearest husband), she dropped by for a quick second the other day to give me a plastic shopping bag with a few clothing items in it so that I could sell them at my leisure. After she left, I proceeded to open said bag to find...well, TRASH.

Can you say, "oops?!" I just about peed myself and DIED at the same time at this discovery. My exact words to Mark were, "OMG. _______ is going to DIE!!!!" And I continued laughing hysterically while I attempted to text her. She called me back a little while later to tell me that she was "dying." See?? I knew it!

It gets better. OH, YES, people. Fast forward to the next day, when she promised to drop off the actual clothing. Although, I must admit that part of me is thinking that the trash bag was a subtle message letting me know that she does think my clothes are trashy, hence why she mixed up the two bags by her front door. I digress. She put the other plastic bag (the correct one) on my front door, but she also told me that she had to first take it out of her trash can outside. HILARITY. If you're not laughing, too effing bad. I think this is the funniest S*** EVER.

She did say something very interesting to me though. She said, "thank God it was you!" I'm interested to know if she was happy that it was me because I am less likely to judge her for it...OR...maybe it is how she truly feels about me?

And the next time I tell her I'm going to loan her some baby clothes, I'm going to make sure to bring her a nice bag 'o trash! HA!

Honestly, though, I have some of the best friends a girl could ever ask for, and my best friends know they need not be embarrassed if they give me a bag of trash. That's just the kind of friend I am, you know, the kind that you can dump s*** on her front porch...and rather than chastise and judge you for it, I'll smile & laugh, and then throw it away for you. Oh, and then tease you about it...FOREVER!
