Most embarrassing moments.....

[Starfish]

Flybye, your story of the suit/pool reminded me of one...

I was also at that pre-teen, ackward age. I had 3 older brothers, and I was always hopelessly in love with one or another of their friends. Remember what that kind of covert, pre-teen crush was like?

One day, I was overcome with honor when I was allowed to come over to one of the guys' homes with my brothers and a group of their friends, to swim in the backyard pool.

Well, there was a volleyball net, and I was wearing a suit that just had one halter tie that ran from between my breasts up around the back of my neck. In other words, the actual cups of the suit were not supported by the straps.

You guessed it. One big jump up out of the water with both hands to hit the volleyball, and both breasts just popped right out for all those 17 yo boys to see.

I don't think they cared much about 12 or 13 year old, pudgy me, but I was HORRIFIED.

Oh, boy, do I ever remember that!! I liked "Gopher" from the Love Boat. Oh, man, oh mighty...... What on earth was I thinking? C'mere, cabin boy!!

I am sorry for you horror, Starfish!!!

All of your horror, really!! I read everything and feel like I was there- pantyhose, toilet paper, cops at your campus house, rubbers and pops, kotex. Man, life is fun. Take it with a grain of salt!

My dear friend works for an attorney and I stopped by to get her for lunch. When she turned around she had her pantyhose tucked in her skirt, too. Luckily for her, no one else was in the office and she had just came out of the ladies room. Unluckily for her, she has me to constantly tease her about it!!

Mr. Silver - you must have been a great kid to go to that trouble to track down the car that you hit. I'll bet that there were many parents in the audience that day who were proud of you. I'd be honored if my son one day takes responsibility for his actions like you did!! Embarrassing or not!

OK. Here goes, deep breath. My most embarrassing moment has got to be that time the department stopped in DC on our way to a conference near Boston. We were on our way out for dinner the first night and in the middle of an intersection ... my-wrap-around-skirt-came-untied-and-simply-fell-off. OK. There. It's out.

On the other hand, I am kinda proud of how I just gracefully (I hope) bent my knees, picked up the skirt, tied it back on and went on to dinner.

Now, isn't it funny how so many of the "most embarrassing moments" on this forum are clothing-related, while so many on those "other" bike forums are about being passed by faster cycling women?
