| Re: whats your most embarrasing moment??? Oooh, that's not a bad embarassing moment at all. Nice one, Howey!
Mine was... when I peed in a friend's sink I was house-sitting for because he'd told me the bathroom (WC, toilets, you know) was not working. I had my detergent and everything ready to clean it up after rinsing it down the drain hwen when the downstairs neighbours started screaming something in Dutch, and banging on my door. When my friend came back, he explained that the pipes were removed in the whole building, that it was the whole plumbing that wasn't to be used, and and that the water and you know what went ... downstairs on the neighbour's bathroom floor! OMG OMG OMG!
What else was I supposed to do? I was sooo desperate!  |

| Re: whats your most embarrasing moment??? Probably my most embarrassing moment happened my freshman year of high school, during the annual Shakespeare Festival. I was dressed up for the day, so I was wearing a dress with a long skirt. My class had lost a member for the Tug Of War competition, so we needed a last minute replacement, or else we had to forfeit to the senior class. I stepped in.
There were tons of classmates and teachers watching, including my sister (a senior) and her friends. It had been raining, so the ground was wet. I ended up slipping and falling backwards during the competition...and a gust of wind blew my skirt up and over my head. Everybody was laughing hysterically. That was rough.
Oh, armadillo, yours is way worse though! Yikes! |

| Re: whats your most embarrasing moment??? My most embarrasing moment is when I joined this forum that they call fishlore, it was really bad, then the second most embarrasing moment was when I found out I had an evil twin brother named Todd. I'm only kidding, about the second one. lol

P.S. By second, I really mean first. |

She said she also realized at that moment that she would never have to worry about me ever cheating on her.  | |

| Re: whats your most embarrasing moment??? Ok well first let me start by saying that my husband(at the time fience) and I moved out to Phoenix, AZ 5 yrs ago. We originally were from Buffalo NY, so you know the huge difference in the weather. Go from cold and high humidity to oven hot no humidity. So now onto my embarrassing moment. We were only here for 2 months and we wanted to go to the Phoenix Zoo. We left about 9-9:30 got there about 10 in the morning and it was only april so the temps were warm,but not in the hundreds yet. That day it was only going to be 90. I didn't really eat much for b'fast. So 10 min. after getting there we decided we were going to get a couple drinks and something to eat, since we didn't eat much at home. Well we were waiting in line and we were maybe the 10th couple behind. We get to the counter and I was starting to feel a bit woozy,so I said " here Mike I'm going to give you the money and I'm going to go sit down I feel a little dizzy. " Next thing I know I wake up and all these people are crowded around me asking " is she OK?" OMG, let me tell you I was so embarrassed. I had no idea what hit me. All I remember was going for my wallet and I guess down I went. Security came and picked us up on one of those carts and took us to the main office and they gave me a bottled water and put an ice pack on the back of my neck. The girl was asking me questions like where we were from and she asked if I was PREGNANT. I said" NO!" She didn't believe me. I said"look I'm not pregnant. Do I look fat to you? I fainted because my body is not used to the dry weather. we just moved out here 2 months ago." At that point I was just mad and incredibly embarrassed. I probably shouldn't have snapped at the poor lady cuz she was just doing her job, but she out right was calling me a liar to my face, so I got a little mad. The good thing about it is that we got free passes to return when we wanted.  So that's my most embarrassing moment. Natalie |

| Listen to what I did while in art college:
Among my classes, there was a painting class, which I enjoyed very much. I used oil paints to paint, and if you use oil paints you need turpentine or lynseed oil as a medium to dissolve the paint or to make it mix better with other paints. When you paint with acrylics, water alone is enough for dissolving and mixing paints. Anyway, I used turpentine at the time. While painting, I had turpentine in one cup, and some drink in another cup on my desk. I was so absorbed in painting that this one time I didn't look at which cup I was taking! And of course, instead of my drink, I took the cup with TURPENTINE! I took one good mouthfull of turpentine (LOL, or "not LOL" ... 'cause it could have been DEADLY for me). And it was just literally one second before I swallowed it, before I realized I am having turpentine in my mouth! I think I might have swallowed about 1 drop. The instant I realized I was about to swallow turpentine I spit everything out - like a crazy maniac - in front of my painting! And I ran out of the classroom to bathroom like a crazy idiot. The entire class was looking at me in shock - they had no idea what happened to me. All they saw was me suddenly spitting out and running out of thew classroom like one mad psycho! Anyway, I run to the bathroom to rinse my mouth and gargle. I was doing it for about 20-30 minutes. I didn't swallow the entire mouthfull but like I said - I think I might have swallowed like 1 drop. I am still thinking today if that could cause some health problems for me ... who knows  My friend ran after me immediately she saw me run, lol, she thought I was about to vomit or something of the sort, and when I told her I almost swallowed turpentine, she thought she'd die of laughter. I - on the other hand - wasn't so happy about it!
So ... I think this was the most embarrassing moment of my life! |

| Here is my embarrassing moment... : 
When I was just a wee girl of 18 and just got married, I decided to make my new husband lunch. He had an hour off for lunch so I wanted to have it already for him.To express my love for him, I engraved into the tops of two frozen chicken pot pies my endearing love..
One said "Honey pie" and the other... "I love you"....
Well.... one thing LED to another and I ended up with a grease fire ( being so young didnt realize that you need to clean out the broiler after each use). Well the flames were shooting out of the stove and I panicked.. I called the fire dept and here they came... sirens blaring and busting down the front hall door ( dont ask me why). Well... I had four fireman... all in jackets and gear and axes in a semi circle around the stove. One of them opened the door and pulled out the oven rack.. there were the two pot pies.. burnt but clearly written... HONEY PIE .. and I LOVE YOU.... They stared at the pie and simultaneously all turned and stared at me without a word!
I couldve melted into the wood work with embarrassment  lol....

| Well, I had to think long and hard for this one. Not that I couldn't think of one, I just couldn't think of one I could post here lol. SO I found two:
1) Freshman year in high school. I used to wear very thick jeans all the time. Made it difficult to feel what you sat on, in case of prank, so I always tried to keep an eye out. The chairs in science class were made of plastic and of one single piece. At the part where the seat and back meet, there was no corner, it was rounded so it made a little cove. Kids decided they'd use it to hold water in hopes someone wouldn't notice and look like they wet themselves. One day when I got in, I noticed two chairs side by side. When I grabbed the first, I noticed the puddle of water which was difficult to notice at first glance because the chairs were dark blue, unless the light caused a glare. Well, I pulled the first chair and heard a splash and noticed the water. I thought to myself, "Those idiots thought they'd fooled someone. Well it didn't work this time, HA!" So I grabbed the next chair and sat down.... Remember I said I wore THICK jeans. Well, FIFTEEN minutes later I start feeling this tingling on my *ss. I started to feel worried. I wondered if something bit me. Then I felt cold, I'm thinking "OMG! I'm loosing feeling to my rear!" THen I felt moist! I thought "What the !?!?!? Did I wet myself!?" Just then and there it hit me... they weren't such idiots after all, I just off the chair and shout, "OH MAN!" Of course, had I said nothing THE WHOLE CLASS would not have turned to notice my soaking wet *ss! |

| 2) Years later, I was woking for the Motor Vehicle Division (aka DMV) in my city. The week prior to my incident, I had just issued a personalized license plate to a nice lady. It read HILO (like Hilo Bay - pronounced heelow, since I didn't know at the time either). Well, the day of my incident I had to go to training in Phoenix, since you had to go to the capitol to train, which is five hours away, so I drove the state car. I was used to a big truck with BIG breaks. I was driving a late 90's model Ford Contour with tiny breaks. A few blocks from work on my way out, i noticed the air conditioning was malfunctioning. I was fidgeting with the buttons (NEVER DO THIS) not paying attention to the road. When I look up again, the traffic was stopped infront of me. I slammed on the breaks and slid for what seemed like a mile! I'll never forget the shiny new plate that I saw infront of me. A few minutes later it was a cracked, bent plate which read "HILO"! |

| Oh guys, this thread has really cheered me up!! We have *****yness at my stable yard at the mo so came back feeling like a drip but reading this has picked me up good style!! I LOVE fishlore.
OK 2 memories spring to mind for me. One was after an all day outdoor concert in Stuttgart with Bon jovi ( blush!!! i was younger and given the ticket!!!) I went with one of my students. Well mid summer, very hot day i had sunstroke but didn't realise it. We got the autobahn home i was feeling giddy and hot but didn't say anything, got out onto street and POW vomited! Only one BLAH but it was like a rocket and made a mess of the pavement!! I WAS WITH MY STUDENT!!! soooooooo ashamed! She just laughed. What made it so embarrasing was the stain was still there months later!!!!
Ok my most embarrasing moment was when i , again in Stuttgart, met this drop dead gorgeous ( younger!!!) guy. OMG he was a dream!!
I had an artist attic as my home,very trendy, natural wood floors, white walls, part glass roof, cost ALOT and wasn't huge but so cool. 3rd floor.
Ok scene set our 4th date!!! i have butterflies in my tum! The doorbell goes and i press the buzzer to let him up BUT it doesn't work! So i have to go down to let him in. Beautiful polished solid wooden spiral stairs. So in my excited haste i slip and bounce down the stairs on my backside only stopping at the bottom out side the see through glass front door!! There was my handsome chap looking down at me saying ' you ok?' OH THE SHAME!!!!!
Such a great memory for me now but at the time i was mortified. We were together until i moved back to England so i guess me liked the fool in me!! |

Unfortunately, I have no embarrassing stories that I can think of right now. I was reminded of my work experience by someone who posted when the nurse asked if they were pregnant. I had to work in a primary school for two weeks, in the y3 class (7 + 8 year olds. So sweet!) The number of times I was asked if I was married or had a baby yet was really quite shocking :P
I was always kind of stuck for what to say back to them. |

It said that the IMPERFECTIONS are what we miss the most when we no longer have someone, or something to that effect  .
Since then I've grown fond of that thought. Perfection we get used to. Its the imperfections that we fall in love with, I think. So that would make sense. Have you contacted the fellow since then? |
