9. Sorry
I had no idea that posting that pic would make you question whether or not you were making a big mistake by devoting your life to someone else.

That's why it induces nightmares right?

3. Woke up one morning
and had no idea who the guy was next to me. :blush:

I had to go to work and I left a note for my roommate - "Going to work. I'll get something for dinner. By the way, who's the guy in my bed?"

Turns out he was some dude who'd been over visiting late at night and passed out in my room. But it was quite surreal.

4. I don't think I could narrow it down
to just one. The list is just too long and varied.

:blush:

5. OK, this has to do with Will Pitt.
We were in Florida on vacation when he was about 15 years old. Will, me and my niece, Liz, went to a shopping center and there was a gift shop that had a fudge making demonstration going on. There was a crowd standing around a table watching this guy make a huge block of fudge. I was on the other side of the store and thought I spotted Will standing at the table. I went up behind him, put my arms around his waist, gave him a hug and propped my chin on his shoulder to watch the fudge guy. About three minutes later there was a tap on my shoulder. It was my niece who said "Aunt Jane, that's not Will."

Fastest exit I ever made! What I still can't understand after all these years is why the kid that
I mistook for Will didn't move or say anything!

6. Not keep in proper shape... or deciding if I should get back into proper shape.
One can never tell, the future.

7. Accidentally told a girl that I loved her.
I didn't love her, we'd only been dating for a couple of months.

We were curled up watching a movie and there was a nice big storm brewing outside, a bottle of wine, and I meant to say "I love THIS". It came out as "I love you". Why? I don't know. I quickly corrected myself, this! this! THIS!. I don't think she believed me. Great night ruined by awkward embarrassment from then on.

I still shake my head and laugh about that.

12. I told a woman with a guide dog that no pets were allowed in the store
When I worked in retail in high school and college. I'd just been made an assistant department manager and was crazed with power, apparently. All I saw was the dog. :blush:

13. This is kind of gross, so don't click if you're eating or have eaten within the last hour.
This happened when I was a junior in highschool. It was during family finance class and I did NOT feel well at all (I think you can probably figure out where I'm going with this). I found that if I didn't move at all I could keep the queasiness at bay, but when it came time to go to the next class, I knew I couldn't hold it in any longer and rushed to the bathroom--or tried to. Inside the cafeteria, which I went through as a shortcut, I threw up all over the floor (and there was a garbage can not five feet in front of me that I couldn't even make it to). I hate throwing up so I was also coughing and my eyes were watering, and freakin' everyone saw it. Needless to say, I went home.

To those who clicked: I warned you.

15. In 7th grade,
after gym class, I was changing back into my regular clothes when I had an idea. I decided to put my jeans on over my sneakers so I wouldn't have to take them off and it would save time. My shoe ended up stuck in my pants, so I had them halfway on. I waited until the other girls left, and then got the gym teacher to help me. I lay on the floor of the dressing room while she pulled my pants off. She was nice about it and acted like it happened all the time, which I was grateful for.

16. pooped in the wrong toilet
when I was a kid, my Dad was replacing the toilet. Unfortunately, i had to really go.

So, being a kid and not understanding anything about plumbing, I used the new toilet that wasn't hooked up to anything yet.

I never heard my Dad swear that before or since, and as you can imagine, it was used against me for years.

19. In grade school
It was like 3rd or 4th grade. It was a cold, Wisconsin winter day. I was riveted to the tv, watching cartoons while getting dressed to go to school. I wasn't really paying attention to anything but the television. I put on my snowpants and off I went. Got to school. Went to take off my snowpants at my locker.

...and wasn't wearing anything underneath them. :blush:

I had to walk around all day wearing snowpants. And word quickly spread throught the school as to why.

I've done so many embarrassing things in my life I don't know where to start.

Ok, an early one and probably the one I use most often when this question arises.

First grade, standing for the Pledge of Allegiance, I really really had to go. I went, all over the floor. Sat down hoping no one would notice (come on I was 6/7) Teacher called me up and handed me a note to go to the office. My nana had to come with a change of clothing.

I went back to class. Lloyd, who sat behind me asked "Did you pee your pants?" I said "No!" He said, "Aren't those different pants?" I scoffed at him and gave him a whither look "No, they are the same pants."

I don't think he bought it.

21. Said the word "rape" three times in one sentence to William Kennedy Smith.
Will used to live around the corner from where I worked and would stop in my shop often. Extremely nice guy. We all liked him a lot. Had a hard time believing any of those stories about him could be true.

Anyway, he wanted to hire me to illustrate a physical therapy book he was writing and invited me to his house to discuss it over lunch. After eating, he asked if I minded going along while he walked his dog, an adorable black lab. As we walked along he asked me if I had any pets. I replied that I had two boy cats that at the time were driving me crazy. He asked why and I replied: "Well, they're about to turn one year old and they are so rambunctious. Everytime I turn around Beans is raping Frank or Frank is raping Beans or Beans is raping a sofa cush..."

And then I realized what I said.

I don't even know why I used the word "rape" other than it must've been in my subconscious somewhere (my mother, upon hearing that I was going over to his house alone, said something stupid about it). I stopped talking and turned beet red. He smiled and said "Boys will be boys..."

I wanted to crawl in a hole and die. I didn't even end up doing the project for him because I couldn't face him after that. Which was really stupid because it would've paid pretty well. I was young and had a very thin skin.
