With my DD's pregnancy I was SOOOOOO ready to have her as soon as the 37th week hit. Her foot was in my ribs so bad that I couldn't breath. Well I went out to smack the ball around with my tennis racket. H was playing basketball with his buddies just next to where I was. I SWORE my water had broke.. And announced it to the court telling H we needed to head in soon. Nope. I just pissed myself.. alot. My water did officially break 9 days later. I didn't face those friends of his for a while. I was a ball of tears at the hospital and just wanted to hide my face and run.. kinda like that gif!

I feel like I have so many but can only think of this one at the moment. I may be back with more.
I know I've mentioned on here before that I did an attachment therapy with our adopted son several years ago where I wore him in a SSC baby carrier for several months. I looked completely ridiculous wearing a 5yr old (he was the size of a 4yr old) in front of me. It was during this glorious time that I was summoned to jury duty. We were there of course pretty much all day and at the end I was excused (not because of wearing my son). As I left the building a sweet old lady told me I had blood all over the back of me (I was wearing a dress). So not only did I look like a crazy lady wearing her son all day but I then proceeded to stand up in front of the whole jury, say my piece, and walk out with AF waving her red flag. There was nothing to do but laugh!

Oh where to start i have so very many bc i have what most call blinde moments yet not a blonde. The most embarassing was when i was 11 and just started my period (after my biological father told me i was going to die bc i didnt know what a period was) well anyways a bunch of frineds and step sibbkings were outside sledding and i had to pee. Well the house was half a mile away and was no way in hell gonna go in the woods and freeze. So i remembered the pads said leak proof. Yeah no not the leaking they were talking about had to run home and change and was embarrassed. Gave me a great storey to worn my 12 yr old daughter though
When I was 13 I went to the Philippines with a dance and drama group. We preformed a non violence and drug free program in high schools. During one week we went out to a very small town/village. I ate dinner once at the "restaurant" and decided I'd rather starve for the week. I ate 2 snickers and some saltine crackers. On the way to a performance I pooped my pants. I told one of the leaders I needed to go back to my room. She told me we were in a hurry and I had to use someone else's bathroom that was closer. Well I was freaking out and didn't want to tell anyone so I cleaned up as best as I could and "barrowed" a pair of clean underwear from the girls room. I guess they found out.... later when we were back in the US we had a dinner for all our parents and they showed pictures and told stories. They also gave out awards, I was awarded "most likely to take something that doesn't belong to me". Then I had to tell my mom why I got that award.
This was i think when I was 17 or 18. I went to Target and as we were leaving, I stood in front of the doors and waited for them to open, assuming they were automatic. The friend I had gone with finally caught up to me and stood there with me too, but we couldn't figure out how to get them to open. Eventually someone came in and we realized it was a push/pull door, not automatic. It took probably 5 minutes to come to this realization though.
Okay, all of you win. Mine doesn't compare, but it is still my most embarrassing moment. In grad school, I won "Student Teacher of the Year" at my university (still don't know how). It was a pretty prestigious award, and there was a whole banquet and celebration following the award ceremony (other awards were given too, it wasn't just mine). As part of the process, I was asked to be on a panel of teachers who answered questions for new grad students entering the program. Again, it was a big deal. They sent me a bunch of fancy mail (my name badge, a parking placard, and so on), and a ton of emails leading up to the day. On the day I was supposed to show up for the panel...I totally spaced it. That night, I got an email from the dean of the Teacher Ed. College asking me if everything was okay. It wasn't until I got that email that I remembered. I was so freaking mortified. I responded with some BS excuse about a family emergency. But nope. I just totally forgot. Needless to say, they didn't ask me back for any other events after that! I still cringe just thinking about it.
When learning German, I ordered a piece of vagina pizza in front of all of my German coworkers. Long story, but best part is when the server just asked me if I'd like it warmed up and they all doubled over laughing at me.
My going away party included all of us wearing Vagina Pizza t-shirts out to the bar.
@schaze that stuff happens to me ALL of the time! Once someone asked me how life in Germany was going...and I said everything was fine but I just was having such a hard time with doors. They looked at me like I was crazy. But push/pull...there has got to be a better way!
