Blowing in the wind

I was at lunch (outside table) with the editor of an oil and gas magazine.  The day before, I had a questionable spot removed from my face and had to keep it covered for 48 hours.  We were talking about ideas for their future issues when he told me “your band aid is flapping in the wind.” 
 
Nice.
 
I looked at him and said, “Are we in that place where I can just rip this off here at the table?”
He said, “Yep.  I’d rather see it in the trash than in your nachos.”
 
All in a day’s work people.  That’s me.  Keeping the oil and gas dream alive for my clients.  One awkward moment at a time.

    Band-aid nachos are a delicacy in parts of Southeast Asia.

  2. Jenbabe Said,

    HA!!! Lincee – I had a tiny cyst removed from my cheek last week and have been wearing a mini band-aid since. I am AMAZED at how many people reach out to TOUCH it while asking “What happened??” Ew, and ouch.

  3. Dara Said,

    I don’t think I should read your blog at work. Laughing out loud in my cube is inappropriate b/c (a) I’m an accountant and accounting isn’t ever funny, and (b) I don’t know how to explain why I”m laughing w/o revealing that I”m “goofing” at work.

  4. lulu Said,

    it’s hard to pretend i’m doing work related things when pop is spewing from my nose.
    thanks for the thursday laugh. :)

  5. Nikki Said,

  6. Lacey Said,

  7. Myra Said,

    From The Bachelor to Band-aids…you always make me laugh out loud!! Thanks! :)

  8. loves waves Said,

    This sounds like an episode between Mental Dental and Jason……..

  9. KG Said,

    I once wore two different shoes … all in a day’s work! You go girl!

  10. kj Said,

    Thank you so much for the laughter, regardless of the subject!

  11. Patriot Said,

    haha!! love it!

  12. Saggleo Said,

    Awesome!!!! Cool client too!!! Band-aid Nachos!!! LMAO! Keep Rockin Lincee!!!

  13. pittkrew Said,

    This should be the start of the “share your embarrassing moment for the week” blog.

    This post is why we love ya because at the end of the day while we are all pineing away for the next bachelor show (and following Lincee blog) you give us a little boost with your funny anecdotes. You’re like our drug dealer giving us a little bit to get by until the next Lincee fix. haha : )

    Thanx!

  14. Erin Said,

    I’m so glad you are kind enough to share these moments with us. It was a great way to start off my Friday!

  15. PK Said,

    I think you should have just said ‘Pineapple’

  16. MarriedWithEyes Said,

    Lincee or WebMan can we get a countdown clock to the Most Shocking, Amazing, Whatever Finale in Bachelor history? I am obsessed…..

    Thanks for sharing the funny in real life. What are you blogging next? What are you thinking about the AI contestants so far. I’m doing pretty well so far – I pick my top 2 girls and top 2 boys and the six selected so far were in my top 8 and the guys are FAR better than the girls this season. I am enjoying this old format better than dropping off the bottom boy and bottom girl for a month.

    Have a great one!

  17. Cheekymonkey Said,

    That’s my girl… keepin it real…

  18. Allison Said,

    Hahahahah….that gave me a good laugh!

  19. Brittney Said,

    HAHAHAHA #15 PK – that would have been AWESOME!

    Lincee, I hope that when you finished lunch, you stood up, shook his hand, and said “All about the shame, not the fame.” And then just walked away.

    But seeing as I, too, work in a PR firm and represent oil and gas clients, I can see how they would not find that humorous. AT ALL.

  20. Melanie Said,

    I have never commented on a blog. EVER. But this post just made me involuntarily snort into my Frosty. Awesome awesomeness.

  21. StephanieG Said,

    Love me some Lincee, and this is why…..

    Have a great weekend, and I hope you got good news about said questionable spot. Hugs, S

  22. kerry Said,

    Very funny! Love your site – I’ve stopped watching the show and mostly just read the recaps. Quick question for you, Lincee…did you have someone design your logo? It’s great. Thanks, Kerry.

  23. Sheila Said,

    Ok- need an explanation for “pineapple”.

  24. Rena Gunther Said,

    And that’s why we love you!

    I’d like to sit down with your parents one day and find out if you were anything like my toddler when you were little.

    She gives me material daily.

  25. starshine Said,

    That is so awesome! Queso and band-aids don’t mix!

  26. starshine Said,

    Lincee,

    I wanted to let you know about a new website called The Women’s Colony.

    http://womenscolony.squarespace.com/main/

    They are accepting submissions from writers!

    xo

  27. Stork Said,

    Sheila…pineapple is the *safe* word Lincee made up for jason to use when he was uncomfortable with one of the girls. It was several posts ago…go back and scan thru you’ll see…

  28. Kara Said,

    It’s not even the story really it is the way you type it so that it is as if I am at the table next to you watching the WHOLE thing 1-because I’m sure you are fascinating and b- because I like to stare…
    I laughed out loud and spit rice on my computer screen and my roommate just asked if I was okay. THANK YOU

  29. okcheather Said,

    can not wait to the final rose- reading a great book about the oil and gas business “The big Rich” by Bryan Burrough about the Texas oil and gas business. i have a serious side and a side that can’t wait to see if the rumors I am trying not to listen to are true

  30. katie Said,

    wow, you just made me laugh out loud by myself…that was great.

  31. ang Said,
