I'd have to report my life 24/7. I'm that dorky!!
If life gives you lemons, go find an annoying person with paper cuts.
We went camping once, which I hate, and ended up sleeping in the car because of the rain. The next morning I stepped out of the car and slid down an entire muddy embankment on my behind!!!
Well, I just got back from the store with my almost 2 yr old. While I was perusing the bras she grabbed a hanger with 3 pairs of xxL panties on it and decided to race through the store at top speed waving them over her head and laughing maniaclly while I, juggling the pack of smokies, tin of formula, and the bra which I had pulled out of it's box, chased her up and down the aisles. How is it possible that a 2 yr old can move so fast?!?!? That was pretty shining - well my cheeks shining red anyway
Last week I worked in our of our other locations which I do a couple times a year. Its a very small office but I feel like I know where things are. I had to use the restroom after lunch and yep - went into the men's instead of the women's. Totally surprised the cute guy that I'd just gone to lunch with. (I went to put my purse down at a desk first.) We haven't talked about it since and I'm guessing he was embarrassed too since no one else seems to know about it.

One of my "shining" moments just happened about 2 weeks ago!
EVERY morning I get out of bed come down and let the dogs out. Have had this routine for the 6 years we've lived here! We live in the middle of nowhere so I have never had to worry about anyone seeing me...we don't have neighbors. So, I fling open the door and standing there is the guy from the electric company checking the meter. I was SO embarassed...It wouldn't have been so bad if I was wearing more than underwear and a t-shirt and MAJOR bed head. I can probably gurantee he won't be back anytime soon.

When I was 17, I was staying at the hotel that Rod Stewart was playing at. I pressed the elevator button, and when the doors opened, there stood Rod - in a big old fur coat... and all I could do is stand there stupidly and say Ro.. Ro.. Rod... and the the doors closed and he was gone!
Well, 2 weeks ago at Kaitlyn's soccer game I was 'coaching' and helping keep the ball in bounds. Well, I didn't look at where I was and I blocked a goal - for our team! The other coaches aren't letting me forget that...

Several years ago, DH's aunt and uncle came to visit from California. We all had a great time (DH's parents and siblings were here also), visiting. On their last night, we had everyone over for dinner. After dinner, we were all sitting around the table chit chatting and DH's aunt said, "Terry, that was a wonderful dinner." There was dead silence - then everyone started laughing. Terry was DH's ex-wife. Boy, was her face red. I actually thought it was kind of funny.

Oh Girl, you want stories??!!
I was a total city girl when I met my dh, the country boy.
We were driving along a country road close to where he grew up and some wild turkeys were flying around.
I said to dh "What the h3ll are those creatures??" and he said "Wild Turkeys!"
I said "Well, who owns them? They must have escaped from a farm!"
Dh starts dying of laughter. Then he says "They are WILD, nobody owns them!"
Gawd, I felt like such an a$$.

This thread is hilarious!! I'm LOL reading through all the stories - thanks for sharing
I have a tattoo that extends from one side of my chest to the other (think permanant underwire, but artsy and more comfortable). Anyway, several years ago my son and I were standing in the checkout line behind a gentleman that had lots of visible tattoos. My child extends out his little hands and says "scuse me. my mommy has a tattoo" --- while lifting up my shirt .. "See!"
ZOMG I was so embarrassed!

OMGosh--you girls have me cracking up too!!!
Thanks for not letting me feel like I'm the only one!

I like to tell stories, I love it when I can make people laugh.
One day I was telling a story, My son looked at me and said " Mom, I know you think your funny, but your not!"

Well I've had my share
Like walking into the men's bathroom at the Phoenix airport and not realizing it until I was walking out...
Like saying "love ya" inadvertantly to a man who was a professional consultant to our group - in full earshot of the entire professional team who turned to me as I hung up the phone during a meeting when they said "Did you just tell the head of that group 'luv ya' on the phone?
Like when I got irate - really irate with my then boyfriend because he'd yet again forgotten something or other only to realize this time it was because everyone was awaiting a surprise birthday party for me he'd arranged.
Like when I said to a famous teacher during my training that a heart sounded "fine" rather than giving the full medical expected description only to have her say "Fine.. did you say fine.. have we taught you nothing?" and I then answered "Well I guess not..." open mouth - enter foot. That's me.
