Okay. A couple of tihngs that would have been embarrassing, if I cared what society thought of me.

Okay, so, a while ago, I was walking home. My phone rang, but I didn't manage to get into my pocket in time to answer it - we've all had calls like that... Phone rings, you accept the call just as it ends. Anyway, annoyed, I looked at who had just called. It was my girlfriend, but at the time, we weren't together. She'd called from her mobile, but I didn't have much credit, so I called her home number.

It rang. And rang. Eventually, someone picked up.

"Hello?" she said.

"Hey sweetheart. Just thinking about you. What ya been upto? Andmore importantly, what are you wearing?" I answered.

"Erm, hey Nikki... err, I think you wanted Joanne, didn't you?" the voice replied. I'd been talking to her mother. luckily, I explained, and all was well.

Other things coming soon.

LOL! You've made my day at least, thanks for sharing. I look forward to the other things. :)

OK, OK, I don't really have another embarassing moment but I do have one that was at least awkward. Also rather recent.

Chris decides he's taking me to a movie at the theater. We go in for Superman Returns. Friend Chris comes too, of course, and so does one of the youth from church. We joke, we laugh, as usual. This highschool age looking guy sits down next to me, apparently coming to the movies alone, and starts talking to me. Husband Chris shoots me a quizitive look, I shrug back, what am I supposed to do? He talks to me through the whole movie, I smile politely, nod a few times, but don't say much. Right as the credits roll, he shoots out of the theater, not a word. Left us all with a 'What's up with that?' kind of feeling.

We all have 'em, we all hate 'em, but sometimes you can brighten somebody else's day by sharing 'em.

The Setting: Sunday night, movie night, my usual spot laying on our living room floor in front of the TV, my husband's usual spot laying two feet to the right, our friend Chris's usual spot laying on the couch three feet behind me.

The Movie: Double Jeapordy, friend Chris has seen it before, after watching it I feel like I've seen it before but it might have just been the previews, husband Chris has not seen it before.

The Mood: As usual we joke, we laugh, and the guys have had a nap within the last six hours. I'm extremely tired having been up late for the last two nights, no nap.

The Incident: The movie is nearing it's end, I've moved to a sitting position to ease some pain from laying on the floor, friend Chris has moved to a sitting position on the floor leaning on the couch. His feet rest next to my thigh on the left. His foot brushes my thigh. His foot keeps brushing my thigh. One minute... two minutes... So very tired... what to do?? I change position slighty. Can't focus... Still brushing. What to do?!!?!!?! He stops. Movie ends. We joke, we laugh, we say goodbye.

The Aftermath: ~11:30 PM So tired... so very tired... can't sleep... can still feel it... what to do? What did it mean? Beepity-beep-beep-beep(sic) What the H E double L was that? One hour later, sweet sleep. 3AM RREEOOOWWWW, MEEEEEEOOOOOOWWWWW. *throws pillow at cat* so tired... so very tired... can't sleep... Beep!(not sic) I have to know. I have to ask him. I HAVE to know... *watches sunrise through closed eyelids* sooooo tired...

(Oh yeah, I should probably mention that 'friend Chris' is the fairly new youth/worship pastor at church. He's supposed to work 9-5 weekdays at the church, I think. Husband Chris is his soundtech. They're best buds. (husband Chris hates the word 'buds'.))

The question: Had to take some stuff to the church anyway. Got a rummage sale planned for baby stuff, and I ain't havin' any more babies as long as I have the four God already gave me. Packed up box of baby bottles, crib, and four kids then set off for church. Stomach churns... feel faint. Carry everything into the nursery, little woozy... let the kids play, so tired... tell friend Chris I have a question. Stammer, stutter... 'What the H E double L??!?' (not sic)

The answer: He didn't even realize, had been nodding off, he didn't mean to, sorry.

...

...

AAARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Face red. Face still red. I am such a loser!

Hope I made somebody's day in my folly. Everything is supposed to work for good. Can't see it yet. Need enlightenment.

Peanutbutter/syrup sandwiches were a staple when I was growing up. The flavors blend well. I have since switched to peanutbutter/honey for the sweeter taste.

I also grew up on leftover McDonalds hamburgers that didn't sell whenever my dad closed as night manager, an occupation he held close to 15 years. It probably wasn't the best diet for me while growing up but it didn't seem to affect my health. I probably should put checking my cholesterol level on my to-do list, though.

I agree, very exciting.

I sat for ten minutes trying to think of more to say so this wasn't so spammy (a trend I've noticed in my posts lately). I couldn't come up with anything acceptable.

I could take the opportunity to say I'm going on my annual trip to the Black Hills tomorrow, but 'goodbye, I'll be gone for a week' posts are so tacky.

I could also moan and weep and gnash my teeth that I haven't had a speaking part yet in E2: RotS, but that would be very rude. Plus attention that has to be begged for is only one-tenth as satisfying as freely given attention.

An expression of love to TM would be out of place here, as well. Smotherings must be set up properly.

Anyhoo, since these are all unappropriate at the time, I'll just have to leave it as a one liner. I hope I don't get canned.

I think in pictures of whatever color the object is supposed to be. If I do think in words, it's deliberately English and though I tend not to look at them, they are usually white.

I'm too out of the movie star loop to know who should play me, though at one point I would have said Kellie Martin.
