uh oh

Well, caleb here just a bloggin. The picture you see here is the most recent problem in my life. Here is how the story goes... I was ironing my fairly wrinkled pants for the show tonight . I had finished one leg and laid the iron down flat, or I knocked it over without knowing it, on a nice coffee table in the church, as I raised the iron from its comfortably heated position on the desk this monster revealed itself. If you know what feeling legitamately dumb is like than you can relate to how I felt when this happened. All the billing issues are still being sorted out, so ill let you know when I know how that turns out. Well if you feel like to, you may pity me or write me a letter of encouragement to raise my degraded spirits, it would be much appreciated. 'til next time

aw, that sucks so bad. I'm so sorry. If it makes you feel any better I did that on my carpet once, let's just say when my mom found out it wasn't pretty. I'm sure everything will work out, it was just a mistake. Good luck and keep your spirits light.

Ah don't sweat it kid. That could have happened to anyone. I'm no expert on such matters, but I would think that a good carpenter would know how to rid the table of that sort of mark. Hopefully no one will make a big deal out of it. If they do, I vote you blame dad. Tell them that he was aiming for you and missed. You'll get instant sympathy. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Don't know if this helps but...about 7 or 8 years old. Running around after dinner, my sister's playing guitar. I trip, fall into her lap...elbow goes straight through my dad's Gibson! Dad walks in...'nuff said.
We all make mistakes. Hopefully lessons can be learned from them (I have forevermore been extra-careful around nice guitars!)

Sorry to hear about the table incident. I enjoyed hearing yall tonight! I hope the drive to SC goes well.

[Tania]

Ha. Next time I guess i would just wear wrinkly pants. :] Don't sweat it though, everything will work out.

[Nicole]

Bummer! Don't be so down! i am sure it will all work out fine! Next time though, you might want to just deal with wrinkled pants!

[Erica]

You sound like me..... I am always breaking or doing things like that. I almost broke our computer with a magnet! (long story...) So, you are not alone, i know how you feel :) Have a great day!

Happens to the best of us, Caleb. That's why I decided long ago to leave the ironing to the girls. They consider the lack of property damage a pretty fair trade. ;)

[Matt Chandler]

Is it ok if I just laugh at you? Don't beat yourself up buddy, I have done way worse!

[Elysha]

That stinks!! I was ironing some curtians one day not to long ago and I was not even thinking and I grabbed the hot part or whatever its called!! Yeah DUMB!!

[Amber Falcon]

I gotta say, that's pretty poopy. Don't worry though dude we all have our dumb moments, believe me I have mucho.

[Jenna!]

I'm writing you a letter of encouragement to raise your degrated spirits....
It's ok. I've set irons on other peoples coffee tables plenty of times.

not really.
did it make you feel better though?

[laura garcia]

LOL ... go to Target and buy a little tablecloth for the table... when are you guys coming to Mexico???

[laura garcia]

nooooo... much better: marry Julia!!!

[EmC]

I agree with the last post :)

[Rachel]

I am sorry that happened to you.. I was at that show and someone (wont say names) told me about it...I wish I had some encouragment to offer but I have nothing...

[deanna]

Wow - YOU IRON!! I'm soooo impressed! If that were my table, I would just be honored that you'd left your mark. ;-) After all, it's just a table! Just tell them all, "If you think I'm good with an iron, you should see me with an orbital sander!" I'm sure they'll forgive you and take a pass! hehe

[Rachel DeSimpelare]

Aw, don't feel dumb...I'm pretty sure irons play nasty little tricks on everyone! I aviod them as much as possible! I toasted a pair of basketball shorts once...since then I've decided that a few little wrinkles never hurt anyone! lol God bless, and thanks for the fun stories. They brighten my day. :)

AWFUL!! and the next week, I was tryng to put a towel in the cabinet and my foot moved a little ceramic that holds the toilet paper and it broke!! NICE!!...I fixed it with crazy glue!!..

[Hollen]

WOW!! I have burned myself but never done that YET. I am blonde..so I have my moments. Yes, I have felt VERY dumb before though. :)

[JD in Canada]

Bonjour, Caleb!! Just wanted to let you know that you're already quite proficient at "leaving your mark in the world", without resorting to burning down the tables, hee hee!! I hope it wasn't too expensive :)

Praying for you and your family. You're in our thoughts!!
