risky dashes and asparagus.

+So you know how everyone seems to do the whole "Awkward & Awesome Thursday" posts? I can't even do that because too many awkward and awesome things happen to me every stinkin' day, without failure.  That's honestly been one of my favorite parts of this blog.  Because I can NEVER think of embarrassing stories on the spot. Ever.  But they're always so great to look back on.  What's a word to substitute for awkward? I'm getting pretty tired of it.  Anyways here are a couple of new good ones to add to the mix...




1.  My eleven-year-old brother attempted to make the rather risky run from the shower across the hall into his room buck naked, screams and runs out because I'm sitting on my computer, in his bed.  


1.  I totally tripped at Walmart yesterday-  not smoothly and gracefully where I could have gotten away with no one noticing. This "fall" was not even one of those slight stumbles where a couple of people notice but are polite and can get away with acting like they did not see you.  I'm talking about a full on plunge to the ground. The front of my sandal caught underneath the stupid floor mat in the produce section, and I slid right on down to the floor and continued to slide about another foot and a half, sending the asparagus, cauliflower, and other various greens in many different directions.  


That's what I get for trying to snag the last two asparagus before someone else could steal them. Lesson learned!

Embarrassing story II

A few events that happened all in the same night. Don't ask how I get so lucky!

1.  Sitting at a comedy show and kicking the guy seated directly in front of me right square in the bum.  Obviously this was not intentional. I had my legs crossed and when I went to uncross them to grab my bag off the floor  - BAM - got him right in the booty. 

2. Having the guy mentioned in #1 continually bring up how funny the whole thing was. "You just went right for it. Didn't get my number first or anything. Not even my name!" I was beet red every time the stupid thing got brought up.  

3.  Scooting off a fence, only to feel my pants snag and what do you know - RIP from the wire.  Got a nice gaping whole right under my butt.  I rocked the 90's sweater-around-the-waist look all the way back to the car.  Brought me back to my elementary school days...only it was cool then, and last night I just looked like a fool. 

4. To make matters worse, apparently some of the people who were with me in #3 thought my pants just ripped. "It's funny they didn't rip during the game, but then did walking back to the car."Apparently they missed the part where they got snagged by the wire. 

Awesome.

Embarrassing story time.

So one question people see to always ask, but I can never think of an answer is: "What is your most embarrassing moment?" I feel like I do stupid things all of the time, but I usually just roll them off and forget about them unless I write them down.

It is not necessarily crucial that I write this story down because there is no possible way I could ever forget it; however, I feel like you guys may or may not get a kick out of my recollection of a very embarrassing few minutes of my life.

For the sake of anonymity, this story is about a boy I will refer to as Jack.  Jack and I had been hanging out for a couple of weeks. Went on a couple of dates, but were not in the slightest "dating".  I tagged along on a road trip to Utah so I could visit some of my close friends and my cousin up there.  After the drive home Jack drove me to my aunt's house since my family was there as well.  We walked into a room inclusive of my WHOLE mom's side of the family as well as some of the in-laws' as well.  He met my grandparents, aunts, uncles, parents- the whole dang family.  (And we weren't even dating. Poor guy.)

After Jack left, my dad of all people decides to voice this observation aloud for all those around us to hear: "Well, looks like you guys had some fun on your trip home".  I asked what he was talking about and my uncle chimed in, "Yea, I thought that was a hickey on his neck!"

I can assure you I turned more red than any deep shade of red you have ever seen! My family continued to tease me for a few minutes until the football game took on the spotlight, which I can assure you I had no complaints about.  Talk about embarrassing right? I think the worst part was that it wasn't ME with the hickey so I looked like the little temptress. Great way to appear in front of the grandparents, right?



Can anyone top it? If so, I'd love to hear!
