Bad Parenting

Anyone that knows me, knows that I am of resemblance to the great, Casper the Ghost. I was attempting to glamorize the "pale is in" look, however, thanks to individuals such as Mike "the situation" Sorrentino and Snooki from the Jersey Shore, the rest of America hasn't caught on yet (a girl can dream right?). Anyway, so as the total style guru I am I decided I should follow the trends established by our favorite Guidos and Guidettes and hit the pool, to get my color to at least resemble the skin color of a healthy individual as opposed to the white, pasty, sick person look, I currently rock.

While laying at the pool,  I noticed two kids splashing around in the pool. To be honest, I felt like I was at Sea World at the Shamu exhibit because the kids decided to basically have a cannonball contests right where we were laying out. The kids were practically strangling each other and screaming curse words at each other left and right (p.s. they were 9 & 11 years old). Suddenly, this woman walks up to them while pounding back a beer and starts talking to them and then walks back to her seat to get another cold one.

The kids go back to strangling each other and basically forming a mini child gang in the pool. Suddenly, a guy walks into the pool with a big cooler of beer (I assume) and a hot pink funnel (beer bong, what have you) the 11-year-old hops out and screams BEER BONG! Naturally, hearing an 11-year-old scream that peaks my attention so I sat up and start snapping photos. All of the sudden the kids are in the pool swimming around with a funnel, and start chugging Cokes in the pool. Don't believe me, oh I have proof:

Later after the kids practically got into a gang fight in the pool little child A (i don't know his name) hopped out of the pool and poured a beer into his nanny's funnel and watched her chug a beer. Proof:

I am not sure if these kiddies parents knew about the maturity level of their dear beloved nanny. But I am sure  that is this was me, I would be happy to have my 9 & 11 year old spotting my nanny on a beer chug, just sayin'. Call me old fashion, but when I was 11 years old I was still playing kick ball and got jacked up mountain dew and slurpees from 7-11.

Awkward Update: While shopping in target to kill time to meet up with a friend for dinner, I witnessed a teenaged girl probably 13 walk by so I put my arm up and said "Hey, High-Five", she gave me the elusive "eat,crap and die look" and then said "uhh.. no." DENIED.

Additionally, while driving around Atlanta for work picking up stuff to get ready for a fabulous Bridal Event my office is hosting, I proceeded to begin a one sided staring contest with a trucker next to me. However, the trucker decided he wanted to challenge me back.. and he didn't stop starring either. We just were frozen back at each other (uncomfortable..........) finally I cracked and gave him the ever mature "honk your horn" symbol, looked away and turned bright red. He never honked his horn.

I am not sure if this Awkward challenge is working the way it is supposed to. In all circumstances it is supposed to make the other person feel awkward and uncomfortable, not me. However, in almost all of my situations I have been the one to look like a fool! I may need to re-think my strategies or maybe I am just way to awkward for this (nahhh). Let's just all see where my awkward life takes me next..
