Youre amonst friends here ....what is your most embarrasing moment??????????

I've had so many embarrassing moments I'd have a hard time figuring out which one make the top of the list.

OK~~~during the summer while shopping at a local nursery (plants and herbs) a woman was looking at the same plant that I was, so we began talking, we had such a fun conversation going on about our green thumbs etc... we were laughing...all of the sudden I asked her "When is your Baby due?"  And she looked at me and said "I am not pregnant." :(  Needless to say our conversation came to a halt so did the laughter and I felt horrible...I will never ask that question again...   Faith :-\

And, when someone comes up to you out of the blue and strikes up a conversation with you, as if they have known you for years--they have remembered your name--but you dont remember their's.  Meantime they are talking away, you stand their with this big smile on your face listening yet in your mind trying to remember who they are.......   :-[  And then finially when you have to ask them their name---that is when you turn 10 shades of red :-\

Ahhhh and then this one.....When my YS was 2 he loved trucks, everywhere he, we went he has his favorite truck.....Except he had trouble pronouncing his tr's so they came out as F's...So he would show everyone is "uck" but add an F infront of that.  And people would look at me... :-\  No matter how I would try to teach him his tr's it still came out as F's.  He finially did learn tho...but that was "always" embarrasing.....Out of the mouth of babes...

Faith, that happens to me a lot. It's tricky trying to ask questions that will help without giving it away that I don't have a clue who they are or how I know them.

Once my DDD and I were in the market and saw a woman we both thought we knew but couldn't quite place. Of course DDD had to run up and give her a big hug. We had a long conversation, after which DDD admitted she didn't know the woman at all. I cringed my way through the checkout line and got out of the market quickly. I wonder how the mystery woman tells the story?

Don't know if this is my most embarassing, but kind of funny.   When my gd was very tiny and being potty trained, we were in  a store, her mom was busy, so I said I would take her to the bathroom.  She came running out shouting"Mommy I went to the bathroom, and so did Grandma"!!! Of course, the place was crowded by then.

Cute...Jill, I liked that one for I can actually hear her "so proudly" shouting her delight... :)
