Before I left home for Atlanta, Georgia at age 18 I was completely ignorant about drugs. They didnt have the programs in school that they have now.
My first husband was a pot-head and I had NO idea what the stuff was!

I also would walk a mile to the Kroger grocery in the middle of the night. I was used to small town/country. Someone must have been looking over me cause nothing ever happened. Surprisingly because we were NOT in a good area of the city.

CLUELESS #1
Once I was in a large city with my DH at a conference. A few couples staying at the same hotel decided to walk a few blocks downtown to go to supper. On the way to the restaurant, we passed a police car with a couple of young girls talking to the officers through the windows. At the restaurant someone mentioned the "ladies of the night". I was baffled about what they were talking about until they mentioned the girls. I said "Oh, I thought they were just asking for directions"!

CLUELESS #2
A number of years ago, I lived in a basement suite that only had a shower. Up to that time I preferred long baths with a book, etc. Anyway, I was missing not having a tub and obviously thought about it more that I thought I was. At work we had a gift exchange and I got a number of very pretty floating candles. I didn't realize that was what they were until the person who gave them to me said and they were floating candles. Without thinking I said, "But I don't have a bathtub!" Needless to say, everyone roared.

CLUELESS #3
My dad's 65th birthday was coming up and we decided to have the celebration out of town at a city halfway between where my parents lived and where a number of the other relatives lived. I was driving through that city so I booked the motel and restaurant. The motel had "live entertainment" advertised and I thought "great, they will have a band and we can listen &/or dance after supper. That afternoon, my mom, dad, my two sons (in their 20s) and myself arrived before anyone else. We decided to go to the bar and the guys could play some pool. My mom and I were the only females in the room but didn't notice that until it was too late. We were talking and catching up when some music started playing. We looked around and a lady wearing a white sequined evening gown came out onto the stage and started getting undressed. I was so embarrassed. That was the entertainment and I had taken my parents and sons to a strip bar!

When I was pregnant. There's not enough room or time to write all the clueless things I did and said while preggers.

Sometimes it's clueless moments that teach us hard lessons.

I learned one the hard way yesterday.

Can you tell I don't want to talk about it?

For several years before we moved to TN, we would come down and camp on our land. One time we went to a local grocery store to pick up some bug repellent, among other things. I asked a stocker if they have any "Off", and I swear he said "All gone." Bummer. So we continued shopping and came across a big display of Off products. Apparently he said "Isle nine"

I still have a hard time understanding the locals. There are many times when I just smile and walk away. They probably think I'm crazy.

All gone, Isle nine... what's the difference? Sounds the same to me.

Back to the whole drug thing... country girl goes to the big city...

I was in Toronto at a night club with friends listening to techno music... huge place... in the middle of the dance floor were two people: one staring dumbly at the other and the other dancing like a lunatic with glow sticks... I said to my friend

"What the heck are they doing?"
He answers "Ecstacy"
My response... "Why the heck would that make anyone ecstatic??"

My friends laughed at me for days....
