Back in the mid-70's, before I had kids, I was at my cabin in MN with my then-dh. We were next door with another group of people our age and I drank a fifth of Blackberry brandy and a half pint of sloe gin in 3 hours. I decided to go back to my place and the friends were insisting I wait for my hubby, so I ran out the front and down the side of the cedar-shake cabin (it was about midnight), thought I was at the end of the cabin, turned and ran into it smack! at full tilt!! Some of them heard me hit and were yelling at the hubby to get out there, so I just got back up and ran back to my place, even remembering to jump the creek. Then I jumped in bed and pretended I was sleeping. Du-uh!! I still hear about that one!
I wonder, sometimes, if we ever give God a headache.
How about the time when my son was about 7 mo. old and I put him on our bed, he bounced off and onto the floor? Oh, wait! That is one of my 'bad mom' stories. Ok then...what about the time the toaster caught on fire and burned for a half hour out in the snow unplugged...no, wait! That is a 'bad cook' story...ok, what about the time I was trying to impress a date when I was between hubbies and I made some frothy foo foo ice cream liquor drink in the blender but forgot to put the bottom in it...no, wait, that is a 'bad date' story.
Guess I just don't have any embarrassing moment ones! lol

One of my most embarrassing moments was when my 4 year old son told his music teacher that her house wouldn't stink so much if she got rid of her cats. She came out of the room laughing, but all I wanted to do was crawl under the couch.

My husband and I almost split up in 2004. His niece got married that year and I got sh*t faced at her wedding reception and made a scene outside screaming at my husband. He totally deserved it, but I'm still embarrassed by it.
I was up at school and out with my roommate and her boyfriend who brought a friend. The four of us came back to our room where I proceeded to puke on the friend...To make matters worse they were DJ's on the school station and the next day dedicated all kinds of songs to Mary... Bad Company ect...
Well, I never went to band camp but I use to counsel at a Y camp in the Ozarks that was co ed and one dark and stormy night...oh wait! another 'bad date' story staring me and the camp doctor! eeek.

Well I don't know how funny but I sure laughed later - I was getting my son out of children's church so that we could leave in between the two services. After retrieving him we head down the stairs, I mean we are healthy and capable I believe that we should leave the elevator for those more in need of it. I had on my cute flip high heels. I'm descending the stairs very slowly and gracefully when suddenly I find myself at the bottom of the stair sitting on my knees. Ok don't know how that happened but I"m ok and there was no one but myself and my son - NOT the choir director and the band (ALL MEN) where leaving the stage and heard me fall and all come running to check on me. Needless to say I thought I was going to dye of embarrassment. My children still remind me to take those shoes off at church on the stairs.

When I was a Girl Scout in the 6th grade we had to perform some sort of dance at the local mall. One of the "popular" cute guys from my class had sisters that were in another troop, so he was there (I was a chubby little girl, so I was *not* popular!) and he (and the rest of the 100+ people there) saw me fall through the curtain and off the back of the stage during the dance. I got up and finished the routine, but I was mortified.
I was at a professional meeting in Salt Lake City with a student and we had dinner with a friend of mine from graduate school at Benihana. She kept ordering us drinks and then told the waitress that it was my birthday. They brought out a cake, sang happy birthday, and took our picture. They gave us a copy of the picture but I was so embarassed. It was not my birthday and it was my first time hanging out with this student in a non-professional manner. The student did come back to work with me as a grad student this year so I guess we showed her a good time!
BTT to share the humiliation!
