foot in mouth: take two

So you know those awkward moments when you are talking about someone and then that same person pops up out of nowhere? Or you make a racist joke and a person of that race turns out to be right behind you? Here comes a prime example of what I am talking about. Thanks again to my cute roommate for making my day.

After a church activity, a group of us decided we were hungry and were going to go get food! Panda Express was agreed upon. As we are walking into the Chinese restaurant my roommate exclaims...

"I love how the back of your car looks! It's so cute. Not like mine; it just looks like it has Asian eyes."

Lots of conspicuous looks from the Asian family seated directly in front of the door followed shortly.

Bad timing I tell ya.  

Bad timing.

Great scene from a great movie:

foot in the mouth

*The names of people involved in this story have been changed to prevent further foot in the mouth moments*

So the other day I went to my friend Jake's house to watch a movie. Jake has a friend named Matt who I always saw hanging out with a girl named Lindsay. Lindsay has long, brown hair. Got that? So I walked in and sat on the couch next to Matt and saw a girl cuddled up next to him, resting her head on his leg while laying on the couch. Girl has long, brown hair. I assumed this girl was Lindsay. [In my defense, it was really dark] Without really thinking anything of it I blurt out, "OH! is that Linsday?!" Because I really love Lindsay and was excited because I hadn't seen her for a while.

...terrible moment of realization hits me when the girl sits up and says...

"Hi, I'm Kelly."

...

Awful! How do you get out of that? Let me tell you: you don't. You sit there trying to hide a complete look of shock and horror, that's what you do.


Needless to say, Matt told me later he was glad it happened because she was crazy and didn't even live in Utah. I still felt pretty stupid regardless. Moral of the story:
