Not Mud | 25 Days of Me

Today I thought I would share a story with y’all about riding in the Jeep with my younger brother. I think I may have shared bits and pieces of this one with y’all but I can’t remember. One thing we do a lot is ride in the Jeep and my younger brother has his all redone. He put bigger tires and all sorts of other things on it.

Over the summer we were riding together just out riding around. No hurry and not doing anything important. When a van pulled up behind us my brother moved over to the side of the road so they could pass us. He did this because we weren’t going very fast as we weren’t in a hurry. He didn’t want to impede anyone who may be in a hurry.

One thing I want to point out before I continue the story. See those tires in that picture above? those back tires that stick out further than the body of Jeep itself? Those things are the devil! Actually this is an older picture because the morning before we went driving we took those back fenders off and changed them.

Anyway, as we were pulling back onto the road some mud flew up and hit my arm. My response was “I hope that’s mud.” I said that because it looked odd. My brother started to laughed and that is when I brought my arm up to my nose. It was horse poop and that crap (literally) was going everywhere.

It just kept flying in the window and landing on my arm, my hand, my shirt, my hair. I couldn’t seem to get it to stop spreading. My brother is about to pee his pants he’s laughing so hard. I ask him if he has a napkin or a wet wipe. His response is “Why would I have a wet wipe?”

I don’t know! Maybe because you eat out all the time and the chance of you having one right now are greater than me! There was a whole of laughter and yelling at this moment. He pulls off and says he thinks he has a GoJo wipe. For those who don’t know GoJo is a brand of hand cleaners that a lot of mechanics. We always had a can in our home growing up.

I was just thankful for something. So he hands me the wipe and I begin wiping things up. He comes around the Jeep to myside to wipe off the mirror and notices that the ack tires have throw this crap all over the side of the Jeep. His response? “Oh my God! Give me that wipe so I can wipe down the Jeep before this stuff sticks!”

He didn’t find my laughter to his problem funny at all. I thought it was hilarious. Honestly, sometimes the grossest things can end up giving you the best memories. We still laugh about this day and we had the best time. Even if we did end up covered in crap.

Have you ever had something happen that was really gross but ended up being so funny? share it with us in the comments below.
