Presenting "The SeattleGirl 5-Minute Comedy Sketch"

[SeattleGirl]

Okay, so the dog needs to go outside. I go out the door and step on a slug! Oh man......

I go out to the grass and try to get the slime off the bottom of my brand new shoes, which have a lot of texture, so of course the slime is stuck in all the little crevices.

The dog wants to play, and starts barking at me. Sorry, honey, I've been slimed and I can't think about playing.

I go over to where the hose is and try to wash the slime off my shoe bottom, but it is STUCK in there, so I think, well I'll need to go back into the house and use a brush to scrub it out.

I turn around to get the dog (who is still barking at me) and walk right into a spider web and end up with a big spider in my hair! So I'm whapping at my hair, trying to get the sucker out, the dog is still barking, and then I trip on a small bush that's planted at the edge of the yard and nearly go sprawling. (The dog is still barking.)

I burst into hysterical laughter, and then notice the neighbors two houses down are out on their deck and have seen the whole damn thing.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled lounge programming.

1. Thanks for the laugh

I read the whole thing with "The Benny Hill" theme song playing in my head.

[SeattleGirl]

4. That's certainly appropriate theme music!

I'm still laughing!

:rofl:

[Fox Mulder]

2. .

:rofl:

If that happened to me, I would've stepped in a big pile o' dog crap instead of a slug. Oh, and I would've managed to lose my pants somewhere in there.

Don't ask.

3. sounds like a normal day ...

for me ...

:hi::hug:

[SeattleGirl]

12. I do have my share of days like this, but this was extra funny!

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

5. what, no cream pie?!

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

6. That would have been the topper!

:rofl:

[WCGreen]

7. And the neighbors couldn't see the spider Web....

so they had no idea why you were whapping away at your head....

Funny stuff....

And a funny lady who would share that life mishap with all of us looney toons here on DU.....

Thanks...

[SeattleGirl]

8. If you can't share life's mishaps with the looney toons,

Who can you share them with???

:silly:

[WCGreen]

9. That's the spirit.....

[NMMNG]

10. That sounds like something that would happen to me

Only right about the time that the spider got in my hair I'd be in terrified hysterics--I have a spider phobia. :scared:

[SeattleGirl]

11. I don't much care for them myself

but I'm not quite at the phobic stage. Now my daughter would probably have run screaming down the street -- she is REALLY phobic about spiders. But she probably would have cracked up to see her mother today!

:7

[SeattleGirl]

13. Kick for the Nighthawks.

Thought you might get a laugh out of this. :rofl:

[KitchenWitch]

14. Welcome to my world.

My most embarrassing moment ever was years ago at work. I worked in cubicleville at the time, and I had just pushed my chair back a little to get something from my printer. I went to go sit back down, and only caught the edge of my chair. Chair goes flying, I go thud, just as my boss is walking by my cube. He says (in his NOT inside voice), "{my name}, are you okay?" The entire department heard him. I was totally mortified.

[SeattleGirl]

16. OMG! It's funny but I'm sure you were SO embarassed!!

I could probably write a book on "My most embarassing moments"!

[KitchenWitch]

17. Oh, I am laughing now about it

I was in my early 20s at the time, so that was not a way in which I wanted attention.

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

19. I slipped on a discarded ice cream bar wrapper in the cafeteria

at lunchtime, in front of everybody!!! :blush:

Lo these many years later, I can finally :rofl:

[wildhorses]

15. whatcha gonna do for an encore

Ms Grace? :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

18. Well, I have been known to trip on air!

:rofl:

[wildhorses]

20. I like to trip the light fantastic

but I have my klutzy years...and the scars to prove it

[SeattleGirl]

23. I am a constant source of comedic relief for my husband

The really funny thing is, we met in a dance class!! I can dance with a fair amount of grace, but walking? Fageddabout! :rofl:

[enigmatic]

22. OY!

:rofl:

[Mojambo]

21. Admit it. You're Chevy Chase aren't you?

That is way hilarious.

[SeattleGirl]

24. Perhaps a distant relative......

:rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. Omigod, I wish I had read this earlier!

But as I am heading off to bed shortly, and I'm scanning the Lounge for ANY reason to stay up....

And my eye lights upon your thread...and I think to myself, why not?

It's wonderful! Very funny my dear....

Thank you for sharing it with us....:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

26. You are quite welcome, Peggy!

I was laughing so hard at myself that I HAD to share with the Loungers!

:rofl: :rofl:
