Most embarrassing moments.....

[crazycanuck]

Well..I have a couple...

1-ilst driving to Ian's uncle's house in NZ..(not from Australia kids !..Auckland to Whakatane) i decided to throw my gum out the window...By pure fluke it landed smack dab in the centre of the windscreen...not of our car but the motorists behind us..

2-My mom came & visted us in NZ in 2002..I'd been in NZ for about a year and hadn't quite discovered all of the creatures yet. Anywho, we took her to Piha beach and went for a walk. Somewhere along the beach i picked up a stick and touched some blue/purple gobs with it. I guess i touched my forehead with it at one point which wasn't the smartest thing to do...I was ok for a bit but when we headed home I felt an excruciating pain on the left side of my cheek/forehead for about 10-15min...Long story short-the blue thing was a Blue Jellyfish...

I won't touch blue jellyfish again!!!!

About 10 years ago I was the only woman working in our all-male IT support department. I had this horrible shift that started at 5:30am, and I am not a morning person, so I was always very groggy getting up and dressed for work. Also, I usually dressed in the dark so as to not disturb my then-boyfriend.

One morning, I put on a new pair of panties and then picked up yesterday's jeans off the floor and pulled them up. Went to work, didn't notice a thing. Sometime in the middle of the day, I looked under my desk and saw... yesterday's panties on the floor! WTF? How did those get there?

Apparently yesterday's panties, stuck into yesterday's jeans, had fallen out the bottom of my pants leg. More embarrassingly, they had actually dropped out somewhere in the hallway that passed in front of my desk. All of my coworkers had seen them. When I asked a male coworker the story finally came out that they had all happened across the errant panties while I was busy on the phone and after some covert panicked whispering they all decided that the best course of action would be to kick them under my desk.

Dianyla - you win.

My turn, although I can't top the loose panties...

Some years ago when I lived in Phoenix and was dating a Park Ranger (law enforcement)...
Anyway we had gone to the grocery store in Goodyear where he used to be a sargent in the town's police department, and I'm writing a check to pay for our groceries, and he says: "did you get that bad check thing cleared up?"

Now I'd never written a bad check, and they knew he was a cop...

Fortunately my check cleared on that electronic gizmo stores used.

And I was ready to throttle him!

Well, I probably shouldn't tell this story because it's not about me but about The Boy, but it's so darned funny I can't help myself . The Boy is a small guy. We often joke that between the two of us, we almost make up one average adult male in weight (I'm 130 lbs and he's 140, neither of us tops 5'5").

So one night we had done laundry and folded before going to bed, then got up the next morning and I had gone to work and afterwards he woke up and got to work. Later on that evening when we were both home from work I did a double-take. All of a sudden The Boy looked very.... curvaceous.

I asked him what jeans he was wearing, and he said they were his, he'd folded them last night and put them in his closet. And I started laughing and asked if I could see the tag, and sure enough, he had been wearing my size 8 women's boot cut jeans (he did look rather bootylicious in them).

He was so embaressed, he got changed out of them right away, saying he thought they'd felt odd all day.

The best part is, he works in a male-dominated techy engineering company. I'm sure some of the guys thought he was going a bit off in the fashion department (but he really doesn't have a clue about fashion, i guess this proves it).

The worst part? I think he may have looked better in my jeans than me....

I have a couple work-related ones. One day while in court (I am an atty.), I was walking down the hallway looking at my file, trying to figure out what courtroom I was gong to. I rounded a corner without looking up, intending to go into the women's restroom, I pushed the first door I came to and went all the way in before I realized there were MEN in there - the MEN's room- they were all laughing. Of course, several of them just had to end up in the same courtroom I was in. Another time while in court, I looked at an atty next to me and said, "don't I know you?" He said, "Yes, we had a deposition together yesterday" (I am very bad with names and faces). There are a few others, but I won't go into those!!
