Think First

So, do you remember how I said that I sometimes experience airhead moments? Here is my latest example. Our good-looking, really-nice mechanic calls to say that he will deliver our van to us. I am grateful. He says he will come in the next half hour. We hang up.
He calls again in 30 minutes:
"Hello?"
"Hi, this is Vaughn. I am looking for your house. I think I missed it, because I am right across from the school. Where are you from there?" I look across the street, and I can see a green-grey van drive by.
"Um, I think I see you. Are you driving a van?"
"Yup. That van would be yours...."
"Oh."
What was going through my brain in those two seconds before I decided to ask the question? Did I think he was coming to hang out with the family? To share my lunch? To drive over and check out the route before actually bringing my van to me? Hmmm.

And just so I don't feel as stupid, here are some dumb things other people have said in CHURCH BULLETINS: (I know, I know...lame. But read them, I was laughing like I had a few too many juice boxes. I might be extra special tired and overwhelmed, because K is gone all weekend, but I really think they might just be funny.)
1. Area Promise Keepers are having a pancake breakfast for the Community Cooperative Ministry shelter for abused and battered women. They've been touching women for Christ for ten years.
