A trend I've noticed is that I somewhat make fun of my friend Julie's ideas, and then end up doing the same thing. I think I've already apologized, but if not, I'm sorry. Again. Firstly, it was the blog. Secondly, the glorious library card.
Hunter and I got library cards a few months ago, and it's probably one of the best things to happen to my wallet in a really long time. Hunter hasn't really used his, but I've probably read like 10 books since then. Some of them being the Maze Runner trilogy and Divergent. I'm still on the waiting list for Insurgent and have been since mid-June. But that's neither here nor there.
The first time we went to the Beaufort Library, I couldn't help but laugh. There's this little beauty waiting to greet you and your quest for literary enjoyment.
Maybe it's because my mind is in the gutter, but I laugh literally every time I see this. It just looks so dirty. Another great thing about it is the kid on the receiving end of this Freudian slip's face.
I know, I know. He's supposed to be trying to drink water. But I cannot help but think about how awkward and inappropriate this statue is! Although, I seem to thrive on awkward and inappropriate. I believe a situation is only as awkward as you make it. So I tend to love awkwardness and trying not to feel awkward in what is clearly a completely warranted embarrassing situation. And inappropriateness is just always great. I tend to surround myself with inappropriate individuals, and I love it (and them) very much.
One of those individuals is my sister. She seems to say the most horrible things at the most inopportune times. We went on vacation to Boston after I graduated college, and we had just been to the Red Sox game at Fenway (it was awesome). Going back to the hotel on the subway was CRAZY. There were approximately a billion people trying to board the subway, so we were very cramped. So Anna leans over and says to me in a very carrying voice, "It's times like this that I'm glad I'm not really huge!" I look over her shoulder, and there is a guy that has to be at least 400 lbs behind her. He was definitely within earshot. I almost peed my pants laughing so hard. This is only one of the inappropriate things my lovely sister has said, and I love her and those times intensely.
So I hope you got a good laugh out of the completely harmless and well-meaning but awkward and inappropriate statue at which I giggle every time I go to the library. And if anyone has any good book suggestions, let me know!
