As I think back, I believe I heard a whirring noise when I placed my hand under the machine. I guess that would mean mechanical versus optical. I can only hope!

Well, it's giving me a big smile..... we all do some dumb stuff sometimes, and just hope nobody sees it. This reminded me of the time I started a new job in the hospital. It was my first day, and I was assigned with another nurse. We were leaving an isolation room, and had to step into the bathroom and wash our hands with a special betadine based soap. I went first, and expected a thick soap or foam, so instead of cupping my hand under the spout when I stepped on the foot pedal, I just stuck my hand sort of flat under it. The liquid hit my hand so hard it splattered all over me and into my eyes. I was more embarrassed than hurt, especially when I had to fill out an incident report and go to the ER to get my eyes flushed and my uniform was covered with dark brown splatters. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I had a similar thing of people looking at me strangely. A friend and I had a bet to see who could dance with the most ladies the following Saturday night if we wore cowboy hats. I do not like cowboy hats so I had to buy one. Saturday came & I was ashamed to wear it . LOL So I carried it in ----laid it on the chair beside me and the guy I bet with was on the other side.. LOL Music started & instantly this fantastic looking blonde lady came walking across the dance floor-------My friend --------said wow that blonde is the best dancer in the building I hope she is coming over to ask me to dance. LOL She walks up in front of us picks my hat up off the chair-----plops it on my head & said let's dance. LOL Of course being the gentleman I am we danced every tune the rest of the evening because she kept clinging to my arm until the tune would begin LOL While dancing I noticed people looking at us & grinning like (they) were silly. After the place closed I was getting into my cowboy truck----took the hat off & realized she placed it on my head backwards. I still have the hat-------I've never worn it since then. LOL My friend won the bet. I didn't get a chance to dance with more than one but I didn't mind taking the loss. LOL Party On!

The gal was a country singer named Julie, and we had known her for quite awhile, and sure enough, she spotted Joe, came to the table, plopped down on his lap and kissed him! I thought that other guy's eyes were going to pop out of his head. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Mrs Joe that is funny. LOL My story was tragic. I had been dancing with all the ladies for about 8 yrs & the damn cowboy hat messed the whole thing up. I married the blonde lady. LOL Party On!

It's great to be able to laugh at ourselves. One time I was at a meeting. I keep my coffee up in my bag. I thought I pulled out my coffee cup but pulled out my son's baby bottle and placed it on the table. Everyone started laughing.
