Laughing at myself
A couple of years ago, I had a ninth grade boys game at 4:00pm followed by a boys JV game at 6:00pm at a different school. I dressed at work and left early to get to the first game. After the game I just changes back into my brown dress shoes and hustled over to the next game, barely making it on time. It never occurred to me to change shoes and my partner never said anything. Did the whole game in my brown dress shoes.
Then my first varsity boys assignment came up. I was psyched. Got to the game an hour and a half ahead of time. Met with the other officials and go to the dressing room. We talk, I get much needed advice and begin to change into the stripes. I look into my travel bag and I neglected to pack my referee pants. Fortunately, I was wearing black dockers to the game, but I have to laugh about the absentmindedness that came over me.
