two times

Two times when all the weirdos who say how smart I am can see how wrong they've been:

1) When Hootie and the Blowfish won their gazillionth Grammy award. This, after the first time I saw a Hootie video (I think it was "Hold My Hand" in the winter of 1994/95, very late at night at Katie's triangle house). I remember specifically thinking, "How stupid are those people. No one is going to buy crap from a band named Hootie and the Blowfish. Idiots."

2) When we ran into an exbf on Bourbon last week. While I realize I was only fifteen when we started dating, I still should have been intelligent enough to see how mortified I'd be when, sixteen years later, I'd run into him while with my highly superior current husband. I mean really... I'm divorced, but the xhub wouldn't have been caught dead in that outfit this one had on, at the very least. How humiliating to have to see him with Tony there, learning that perhaps I was a little bit lower on the league steps.
