What was your MOST embarassing moment

[<Queenie>]

I can think of two off the top of my head. My son was the lead in his High School musical (West Side Story) and the parents had front row seats opening night. I went to the restroom at intermission and yep, you guessed it. I walked all the way back to the front of the auditorium with my skirt tucked into the back of my pantyhose. NO underwear on. Auditorium packed. He'the star of the show but MOM was definitly the MOON!". The other one was a few years ago when I was still a nurse (before I became an esthetician) working for a medical clinic. The nurses were all upset over the long hours and no pay raises so we called for a meeting with all the docs and admistration. I was the spokes person. During a very "heated" discussion, I blurted out "We are just sick and tired of always getting the short end of the DICK!" There was no recovery from that one. But it did break the tension!

I guess the one i can think of that comes to mind is being at Nassau Colliseum in Long Island at a Pink Floyd concert It was the WAll album. I went down the stairs to go to the bathroom ,had thongs on was hard seeing i slipped on someones puke and slid over on this guys lap. I DO MEAN LAP!!!!! His girlfriend was right next to him and we both had puke on us and here i was i fell in this guys lap. I appologized as much as i could tried to clean up as best i could . Couldnt leave the show . The Wall tour was only 6 nights Long Island and 6 nights in Ca. They couldnt even do anything after they built the wall then broke it down . They played as the album went in sequence. Concerts ,hockey games were my life back then . Never home. How these kids waste there time on the net 24** with not going out being with friends is beyond me.

Queenie, LOL!!!!!!!

I've had so many its hard to remember them all. I think the abolute worst was years ago when I was at an Airshow with some friends I walked into the pointy tip of a jet on the ground. Dont ask me how I did it. I was talking or something and turned not really looking and walked right into it. It hit me right over my eye. Luckily nothing touched my eye. I still have a tiny scar under my eye from the stiches. I'm lucky I didnt poke my eye out. Naturally I was just mortified. (was stiched up at a first aid center they had there) Not one of my better moments.

Queenie......i love it!........Geez,mine would have to be when i was flying back from hawaii with my then boyfriend. i was bored and told him to meet me in the bathroom.And yes it is a tight sqeeze but it can be done in an airplane.
BUT after we were through he opened the door to walk out,and i stayed in to tidy up,there was a long line of people waiting for the bathroom and I'm sure they all did a double take after he walked out and i slammed the door in their fces!

Whoa, you all have led pretty exciting lives. Those are some great "moments". I couldn't even come close to topping them.

2 of my favorites...at an office dinner I ordered gazpacho (cold soup). When the waiter brought out the starters, he placed this bowl in front of me. I picked up my spoon, took a mouthful, tasted funny. Turned out to be the thousand island dressing for the other's salads. GARCON!!!!!

I was on an Alaskan cruise by myself. It's the last night and I was putting my baggage outside the cabin door. Lucky for everyone, I had a robe on because my door slammed shut locking me out. Couldn't find the cabin steward to let me back in. I had to go to the elevator area to phone housekeeping. It was the longest 15 minutes. Funny trying to read peoples minds as they passed me wondering what I was all about.

I was Miss High School Average...he was the captain of the football team.
For some reason, he asked me out on a date...and then another...and then another.
We sat in a car at a drive-in, sipping Cokes and eating fries.
He took my hand, looked into my eyes and said:
"Barbi--one of the things I like most about you is that
you're so genuine...so very natural."
He gave my hand a squeeze--and two of my artificial nails popped off into his palm...

I could have died...literally died. The stupid things in life sre so much more important when you're in high school--as soon as you graduate and move on, they cease to matter any more.

I worked on a newspaper as a reporter/columnist for 25 years, and had an editor who was literally unforgiving when it came to mistakes. One of his responsibilities was checking all headlines for spelling and grammar right before pages went to press. One night he must have been tired. We had a headline that was supposed to read: "Teachers call for public hearing on wage increase proposal"--he checked and initialed the page--but left the "l" out of the word "public"...and 75,000 editions were printed and distributed. Talk about embarrassing...
