Yesterday I was driving through Shlotzsky's to get a sandwich and I pull up to the window to pay. The guy working the window tells me the total - $7.06. I said cool. I have plenty of change I tell him. He of course could care less.
I then proceed to dig in my coin purse for a nickle. The coins are stuck in the corner and it is taking forever to get them loose. It is now in that awkward stage where he is waiting for me to pay him and I am obviously taking too long, cars are behind us, kids are going wild - you get the picture.
As I look back, I should have just handed him the $10 bill, but I really didn't want anymore change. I finally get the nickle loose and I pull it from the coin purse.
At this moment, my hand kind of spazes out of control and I fling the nickle out of my hand and it hits the window guy right in the middle of his forehead, bounces off and lands outside.
If you know me, I am a loud laugher and always seem to laugh at the wrong time. This was probably one of those times.
Between laughs and snorts, I tell him sorry and give him the $10. I get my sandwich and get out of there quickly.
Why do these things always happen to me?

So funny. Stuff like this happens to me all the time to - I'm big on digging up exact change.
That is really funny. Well worth the embarrassment. :)
I love reading your blog :) It always makes me laugh! I am so glad Todd has you!!!
Coming out of lurkdom - don't know you - but I linked to you from Suz's blog. This story about the drive thru and the nickel hitting the guy in the forehead is PRICELESS. Thanks for the late night laugh!
