Who Threw That Ham at Me?

Nothing exciting going on other than the anxiety and hair loss from dreading the family get together next week where I will be accosted by normally sane people that become obsessed with my non-baby state. LOL!! So, I thought I would share a story from my past.

While grocery shopping one day, I saw this little od lady stuffing meat inside of her very large overcoat. Yes, meat ... hamburger, steaks, pork chops, you get the picture. Well, I guess security spotted her as well and were watching her but couldn't do anything until she stepped outside the store.

As the woman was walking out, a ham fell out of her clothing. She immediately turned around and said, "Who threw that ham at me?!" She was highly offended and very verbal about it when security took her to the office to call the police.

I thought this was highly amusing and a very witty comeback and use it frequently whenever I do something that goes wrong. If I bail on girl's night and get busted I just say, "Who threw that ham at me?" If my mother overhears me saying that she is a complete and total nut job when it comes to wanting grandchildren ... again, "Who threw that ham at me?"

I think it's a phrase that really needs to sweep the nation. Let's all join in with a rousing chorus of, "WHO THREW THAT HAM AT ME?!!"

Happy Thursday!
