A post by Mythica led to me to ponder how many good tales there must be out there from people who have endured embarassing moments.
I am especially interested in those that have low injury, high humour value. My students thought it was hilarious when I arrived one day at school one day having forgotten to wear shoes. (long story...)
Some may even have been unwitnessed... I can remember during one hectic time driving halfway to work with one of my young children in the back of the car (having forgotten to go via the kindergarten), and nearly having an accident when he spoke!
So speak up... what event has become a classic tale in your life???

Good morning

Too many memories flooding in here - I tell people that I wear a size 10 shoe; problem is, I have a size twelve mouth, so they fit in beautifully :)

About the time I forgot my wife's name - just when I was about to introduce her to some associates ("and this is my wife, um.." <knudge wife with right elbow> "this is my wife, um.." <another nudge>...) Something she hasn't let me forget <laughing>

Or the time was looking for my reading glasses in the (busy) office. Looked high, looked low, looked on everyone's desk, but didn't look on the end of my nose. Explains the strange grins and muffled chortles of my workmates (teach me to give them so much cheek).

Then there was the time that ..........

Enjoy your day

Well once whlist standing by a river some stupid great labrodour (Can't spell) goes and leaps on my back causing me to fall in before leaping clear at the last minute leaving me soaked muddy and highly embarassed

ouch!

I was on the way to an eye test once, thought i'd do a bit of shopping beforehand. Everything was going ok until I came running down the stairs, in front of a packed department store, straight into a glass door! Left my nose mark on the glass before trying to leave in a cool fashion!
I failed the eye test and had to get glasses....................

I was with my Father some years ago. He insisted I go for a ride in his new Ford truck....He made a quick stop at a local hardware store.....for something or another, and being that there was a gas station next to it....I walked over to get us a Coka~Cola. I then got back in his truck....and waited for him. Trouble was...it wasn't his truck at all! I don't know who was shocked more....the old guy that caught me sitting in his truck....or me, but I was definately the most embarrassed! My dad thought that was just freaking hilarious too. I did offer to buy the guy a Coke. He didn't seem none to interested.

I responded to my brothers request to meet me at a singles event. He showed up and I said hi and he said he was meeting a woman there and he described her and died laughing when he realized that it was me. He said I should have known why I felt so comfortable doing this.

Hmm.... Well I've had a few 'Humorous embarassing moments', but I'll only bother you with a couple.
As a kid my cousin and I were on holidays - whilst playing chasing, we ran into an indoor car salesroom, all around this empty room, before realising the reason it was empty was the entire floor had been painted! Luckily we were out before they noticed.
Then the time I spent a good 10 minutes trying to unlock the wrong car...that was a while ago. A red face moment.
