Today, I was wearing my favorite scarf while buddying around with my friends Bea and Summer and I was just bein' silly and so, you know, I flipped the scarf up over my head as if you would if you were going into a mosque and wanted to be respectful:

| The Blue Mosque, Istanbul |
I began to feel nostalgic about last year's trip to Istanbul (pictured above) (because that is exactly how I put that exact scarf in that moment) and asked "Hey Summer, does this remind you of..."
She got into it and interrupted to say, with a look on her face and the excited tone of a person who knows exactly to what you're referring:
"the Cracker Barrel"?!?!
and I was like "HUH?" because of course the end of my sentence was "...the Blue Mosque in Istanbul?"
I guess I can see where she got it wrong:

ReplyDeleteGreat Photo of you at Cracker Barrel..buy WHY are you wearing that scarf/wrapped towel look on your head there? Were you hiding curlers?

ReplyDeletenot buy WHY...
but....**BUT WHY**
I got it. I think auto-correct has taught us to determine what people *meant* to type and not what they really type.
ReplyDeleteAt the time I told Summer "What? I just wanted it on my head."
