Embarrassing moments 2

[BCVOwner2002]

Okay, I'll admit this happened to me! DH, DS & I were going to a newly released movie. DH said we should get the tickets ahead of time and then go for lunch before the movie started.

DH pulled up in front of the movie theatre and I stepped out of the car. There were several stairs to walk up to get to the ticket booth. After a minute or two DH looked toward the ticket booth but I was no where in sight! DS asked DH where I went and neither of them knew until they noticed the three ticket takers all staring at the ground near our car! I had tripped over the curb (which had been painted yellow) and was laying on the ground!

Now whenever I am walking with DH or DS and there is a yellow curb they will take my hand to help me "step up" over the yellow line!!

You mean somthing like this?
I picked up my DD and 3 of her friends at chool, and wanted to run into the Gap for a second, and left the girls(all teenagers) in the car. Well the door had blown open and it was pouring, and the hardwood floors were soaked. When I say I went flying, I became airborne. I was mortified and it hurt. When I got back to the car. I said did you all see that? At which point they all laughed hysterically and said. Oh my God we thought you died.
Glad I amused you all today.

I lived in the upstairs apartment of a two family house. There was a front porch which had about 6 stairs to the sidewalk. No front lawn to speak of (about 3 feet of it). ---I lived the second house from the corner on a one way street. One morning, I realized I had forgotten to put out the trash, and the truck was at the corner, just about ready to turn in front of my house. I was still half asleep,hair all askew, threw on a robe,(which came to my ankles) grabbed the overstuffed garbage bag, ran down the inside stairs, unto the porch, and as I stepped outside to go down the 6 cement stairs to the sidewalk, tripped over the bottom of the robe, and went tumbling down the stairs......the robe is now twisted around my legs, and can hardly move, as I am laying on the sidewalk (good thing I didn't get really hurt), I look up, and the garbage men are standing there,(probably in shock, LOL) I jumped up, brushed myself off, and ran up the stairs into the house. And then realized I had skinned my knee, and the palm of my hand. They probably thought I either had been drinking, or whatever. I don't think it even occurred to them to see if I was hurt.

This is a story that happened to "John". (Name changed to protect the humiliated.) "John" got up and got dressed and went to work. While at work, he sat and had a conversation with his boss. After their meeting, John's boss got up and left the room. At this point, John moved his foot and felt some sort of strange wad of something around his ankle area. John looked down and saw a pair of little boy Incredible Hulk underwear peeking out from under the leg of his pants and partially laying on the top of his shoe. Apparently, the underwear had gotten into the same load of laundry as John's pants. John did not notice that the underwear was stuck in his pants leg when he got dressed for work, so he walked around for who know's how long AND had a meeting with his boss with a pair of child's underwear coming out of the hem of his pants. John was pretty embarrassed and REALLY hopes that no one noticed, or if they did, that they don't think he is a perv.

Jolie.............that happened to my DH (almost the same thing!!)
DH uses a white handkerchief to clean his eyeglasses (NEVER to blow his nose! LOL) and was in a meeting with some of his co-workers, and took out what he thought was his handkerchief to clean his glasses, and realized, before taking it out on the top of the meeting table, that it was DD's panties (it was about a size 3 or so, so they were pretty small). He says he can't imagine what his coworkers would have thought !!

When I was a senior in hs I climbed up to the top of the jungle gym at my school (very small private school). I have no idea what I was thinking because I was in a skirt. Well I thought I would just jump down instead of climb down and when I jumped my skirt got cought and I was litterlly hanging there with my skirt around my waist. My brother and his best friends just happened to turn the corner of the building and see me there. I was so embarresed. My friends were laughing so hard. They had to lift me up to unhook me. I developed a huge bruse on my backside. The worst part is that the next morning at school during opening ceremonies my teacher told me to sit down and I told him I couldn't. My mom who was a teacher in another classroom told him I couldn't sit down either. By this time all the guys and my friends were laughing their heads off. I had to tell my story to the whole school.

I might have told this one before... Our kids were about 8 months old. My mother who was living with us at the time was house-hunting so we took the kids as we toured a brand new house. Obviously we had to leave our shoes at the entrance and walked the house in socks. As we were putting our shoes back on to leave, one of our kids vomitted - right into a pair of nice high heel shoes - of some lady who happened to be touring the house at the same time we were. DW and I bailed but the lady saw us us leave so my mother - saint that she was - went back in and cleaned up the mess. I hope I NEVER meet that poor lady who's shoes were filled by our sweet child.

Alright, since I've posted twice about embarrassing things that happened to other people, I guess I should post one of my own "oops" moments. I was going to a hockey game a couple of years ago (Red Wings vs. NJ Devils, not that it matters to the story) and there were lines of people waiting to be "frisked" before being allowed into the arena. Well, I wasn't paying attention to what was going on and when I got to the front of the line, I stepped up to the big bruiser of a security guy who was standing there and waited for him to pat me down. He just looked at me funny and then said, "Uh, the LADIES line is over there." WHOOOPS!!! I hadn't noticed that there was a female security officer for the women and a male officer for the men, so it totally looked like I had WANTED the male security guy to frisk me.

And of course, there was the time my swimsuit top came off at the beach.

Me, dressed to the nines on my way to the Inaugaral Ball with my handsome hubby and having the unfortunate chance meeting with a nasty patch of black ice. Forget the Clintons, I *was* the main attraction that night.

Of course I have had so many embarrassing moments -- above is just a sampling.

And I have to say I laughed so hard that I cried on some of these stories. Keep 'em coming.

i have another one i just remembered. my brother thought it would be "funny" to tell me about bloody mary. we were at my grandma's and i was scared to death. of course he was cracking up at me and thought it was very funny!! hahah NOT! we went down with my aunt to our other grandma's to get ready to go to the boy-scout campground that our grandpa and my uncle were at. they put on indian shows and things but anyways. i was dressing in the bathroom and he walked out onto the enclosed porch where the bathroom window was located. it was dark of course and he said "hi sarah" really creepy and i lost it!! i screamed my guts out and ran to the front door where he was in hysterics from laughing so hard and i grabbed him. i couldn't figure what he was laughing at and then he told me. my aunt came in to see what was wrong and she said she had heard me from the neighbor's house so i am sure that the entire neighborhood heard me!!!! i could have died and she still tells everyone to this day!

I was in 10th grade and had a HUGE crush on a boy in my Annual Staff class. I had on a dress and Candie's that day, and I hoped to wow him (he was totally oblivious of my feelings toward him and had a girlfriend- what was I thinking?). Well, I oh-so-casually strolled in front of him- and fell over the leg of a movable chalkboard!! Went down hard, and twisted my ankle-those darn Candie's! Well, after a visit to the nurse, I hobbled back to class, and not learning my lesson, tried YET AGAIN to get his attention by sitting on the desk near him. What I didn't realize was the desk I perched myself on was the kind that had no front supports. So, of course, it tipped over and I, for the second time in 1/2 an hour, fell flat on my face in front of him! This time, I ended up needing stitches on my forearm when I sliced it on sharp edges on the way down. I sure got his attention- he laughed about it for the next two years we were in school together!! I gave up on my crush- there are some things you just can't overcome!

Okay here goes. Last summer I lost a lot of weight, but was too cheap to buy new clothes. I was wearing clothes that were really too big, but I thought so what. So one fine day I was walking on my small town's main street, when I saw my boss across the street. He waved at me, and when I raised my hand to wave...my pants SLID right down to my ankles! He turned away, I pulled my pants up fast and ran back to my car because I was so embarrased! Some guys going by in a car started laughing. I'll never know if anyone else that I know saw me, but in a small town, it's a good bet. And yes, I was wearing great, big granny panties that were too big for me too.

Oh man you poor thing.... How embarrassing *giggle* (sorry couldn't help it).

I am also busting a gut over the little man's undies (the dad used as a hanky for his glasses)

Ahh, THAT hill ... I know that area pretty well ... and yes, that's a very steep hill.

About 5 years ago, I had just started a new job and my office was in a large building with many other companies. I had just arrived at work wearing a dress and flats. It was July, and hot and sunny. This is important. There was no rain or black ice. I was walking through the parking lot and there was a gentleman behind me who was VERY attractive. I stepped onto the sidewalk from the parking lot, and all of the sudden, my feet just left the ground. I have no idea what happened. One minute I'm walking into work; the next minute, I'm flat on my back with my dress up around my neck. Literally. I open my eyes and I'm staring at gorgeous dude who is looking at me with concern. And also checking out my lovely bra and panty set. I manage to scramble up, and my purse, keys, folders, etc. were scattered to the four winds. He was very nice and tried to help me, but all I really wanted was to disappear. I finally made it into my office, where my friend was laughing hysterically, having seen it through the window.

Wouldn't you know it, I ran into him like 4 more times that day!!!

I'm still blushing.
