Baby ate my brain

Yesterday I was trying to tell my husband that I saw our neighbor doing some yard work. But it came out like this, "I saw Eric sweeping... no... not that... what's the word for when you sweep things around the yard?" Jon paused and tried to think of what I could possibly be talking about, then he gave me a puzzled look and said, "Uh, are you talking about using a rake?" "Yeah!! That's it! He was raking leaves into a really big pile! It was this big!"

But then the conversation pretty much dissolved, because that's about the worst word-loss I've had in quite a while, and we couldn't stop laughing. I'm still laughing. "Sweeping things around the yard" LOL!!!
