We were in the car talking about
ways to be financially smart considering the skyrocketing gas prices and
suddenly my sister interjects,"You can save money by not wearing any
clothing too."
Pause.
What?
My brain scrambled frantically to try and connect that sentence to the conversation but I could only think of all of the hilarious ways that sentence could be misconstrued and I laughed.
After about twenty minutes the conversation circled back to that and I said to my sister, "Really? Do you know how many ways you can twist that?" Suddenly, she looked embarrassed and shocked and entertained all at the same time. She gasped and put her hand to her mouth, and then slightly recovered, but in defense, with a smirk, "I didn't say you could earn money! I said save money. And....-" That's all I heard because I couldn't stop laughing. Life is beautifully unscripted.
