The awkward moment where you squat to take a pee in a remote, wooded location 20 miles from anywhere, behind an abandoned church, and mid-stream… a choo choo train comes chugging by. All you can do is wave at the grinning guy driving the train.

That awkward moment when you’re in “hidden” in the woods by the lake, changing from the dress you got married in to the clothes you are going to wear to the “reception” only to realize, just as you finish up, that there is a boat sitting about 20 feet out on the water with 4 people in it who saw everything there was to see and just grinning like hell! They offered me a cheers with their beer!

The awkward moment when you rant for 5 minutes over the phone to your life long friend friend about your stupid sewing machine (because she sews and you don’t) and she’s trying to help you and then you find out…you’re not talking to your friend. You’re talking to a complete stranger. Who owns a Tailoring / Sewing shop. And she’s REALLY nice! (This is a true story. Cross my heart and hope to die!!!)

That awkward moment when you rant to the Wichita Chamber of Commerce over the phone about the price of their booths at the fair, and the person on the other end listens really sympathetically, and she’s REALLY nice, and you start to feel better…but then she feels the need to point out that you had reached the Greyhound Bus Station in Wichita, and maybe the Chamber of Commerce can help me. (True story! Cross my heart and hope to die!! !)

There is a lesson in here somewhere for me, just not sure what it is.

Scuse me. I have to make a phone call.

Bellatrix's avatar

LOL @Dutchess_III, your sewing story made me laugh out loud.

So now you ask people to confirm their identity BEFORE ranting.

Dutchess_III's avatar

@Bellatrix—The bad thing about the sewing story? I did it TWICE, about a year apart! I could have sworn I deleted her number after the first time but….IDK, but somehow I had that lady’s number as one of the 3 I had stored for my friend. I deleted it for sure after this last time…but kept a copy of it in case I ever get around to sending it to Reader’s Digest and they might want confirmation.
