did i mention

that while visiting with my friends on Saturday, one of my friends was talking about how she is completely computer illiterate and I meant to chime in with her when she said "computer" but for some reason, "cucumber" blurted out of my mouth.

The room went silent, everyone--everyone--looked at me expectantly, and I said, "Uh, did I just say cucumber? Because I meant..." and at that point, I seriously couldn't remember the word, "computer." For a full five seconds. And then I said, "computer" and everyone sighed a sigh of relief and I said, "Jeez, braincramp. It sucks to get old..." and everyone giggled a bit nervously and I said, "Does anybody want another eclair?"
