Thanks, guys, I’m glad I’m not alone.

Sarah, this is your fault for sitting a billion feet away. This shall be rectified in January. I’ll bet you can’t wait, you’ll get to hear all about my fly escapades. (Poor you.)

Since I was well within the vicinity of your embarrassment and you did not tell me and give me a good laugh I refuse to tell you about any of my embarrassing moments. There are some good ones too.

Oh my. I have a perfect [-ly embarrassing] one.

Back when I was drinking, I once stumbled out of a parked car with my pants (and undies) around my ankles…just as the bar we were parked in front of closed for the night and everyone came pouring out.

My graceful way of handling the situation?

I threw up on the curb.

With my pants still around my ankles.

(Is that what Oprah would call a “defining moment”?)

Oh my gosh. This brings back a memory.

I once spent fifteen minutes standing in the middle of my aunt and cousin’s livingroom and chatting with them, only to go home and realize that the fly on my skirt had been WIDE OPEN. And it was a tight skirt, so I know it was just HELLA OPEN.

The annoying part is that I went home and realized it and thought, “That’s why they were looking at me funny the whole time!” but then I also thought, “Why the hell didn’t anyone say anything? I would have said something had the situation been reversed!!! It’s my freaking FAMILY, they’ve certainly probably seen my naked 3 year old butt at some point. What the hell?!”

Conclusion? God, my family is so weird and uptight.
