Recently I affirmed for myself that I am, in fact, The Dumb. Its not like I've never done dumb stuff before, but I thought I would start documenting it. To take the sting out of it, I guess, and to make me laugh!
I signed up for the latest "Books and Brews" book club meeting but then hit a snag as the book I ordered for it never arrived. So I thought I would attend the meeting anyway, just to listen in on the discussion and drink a beer with other adults out in public. I made my way to the brewery on the scheduled day and time, found a table with a book club reserved sign on it, and sat down.
As people started to arrive, I thought, well, this is a different group of people than normally come, but everyone was so friendly. And it wasn't until I had been sitting there almost an hour before I realized it was a completely different book club, reading a completely different book that I had never heard of, and at a different brewery than my group was meeting at.
What.
So basically, I gatecrashed the other clubs' meeting and didn't even have anything to contribute to the conversation. And no one there even questioned it. But I did have a good beer.
And just to make up for my nonsense, I ordered the next book that this group is reading and signed up to legitimately attend the November meeting.
But I probably won't remind them I did that!
