You know that saying “having a blonde moment" folks are so fond of joking about?

Well, this team tagged a new line especially for me. You see, and here we go again with my mapping issues… not everyone had a GPS, so driving around turned into a game of “Follow me".

I did my best, as last in line, to follow the leader.
I followed the truck.
Unfortunately, I followed the wrong truck.
I realized it though, and turned around quickly, hoping no one would have noticed.
Also, unfortunately, the vehicle in front of us noticed our abrupt turn off.
My cell phone rang almost instantly and I had a difficult time understanding the caller.
All the occupants of that vehcile were laughing way too hard.
Hilariously, they had been about to follow that truck, too… until they realized they were driving the truck.

That sparked the beginning of a very long rest of the week, through which I had to endure, many times, the newly-coined phrase “having a blue moment."

I restored my midnight-blue hair color back to boring brunette when I got home. So far, I haven’t had any “brunette moments."

Oh, yeah, one more thing. I added a GPS to the lengthy wish list for my technological impairment plan for improvement (tipfi).
