Thought it might be funny to share a embarrassing time that hopefully by now you can laugh about.
I was walking out of the pharmacy having picked up a prescription. Walked to a car that sure looked like mine. I noticed the windshield wipers. They sure had a lot of leaves and twigs stuck around them. I can't believe I would let that go. So I started picking them off by the drivers side. The window started to roll down!!! What the heck? There was a lady on a cell phone looking at me. She said "You folks are sure nice around here. We just moved here" She smiled. I just was speechless and with eyes wide stepped back. I sputtered out, "Oh I'm so sorry! I thought this was my car. Have a great day, and welcome to Denver."
Any funnies you can share?

I was picking up a prescription at the pharmacy drive-thru. The pharmacy tech informed me that they never received a script to fill. "Yes you did" I answered. "I called it in this morning". She said, "I'm sorry Ma'am but we don't have a record of you calling in a prescription". Impatiently I said, "This is ridiculous. Can you just check one more time?" From my car I could see her talking to other pharmacy employees about my prescription. She then pulled out a phone book and started dialing the phone. I was so impatient by this time. When she was finally done, she informed me, "Ma'am, you called the prescription to Walgreens". I said, "I know, isn't this Walgreens?!!?" I cringed as she replied, "No, this is CVS. Walgreens is across the street". I felt REALLY small!

I was grocery shopping in the commissary and the bagger wheeled the grocery out to the parking lot. I opened the back of a red Dodge Durango for the man to put the groceries into. The back was really dirty with hay and I was getting mad at my husband for hauling hay in my truck. During this time the alarm was also going off and the guy was loading up the groceries. I used the clicker to cut off the alarm and then an alarm nearby went off. That alarm belonged to another red Dodge Durango. That one was mine. I said "Oh my God, this isn't my truck. Hurry up and get those groceries to my truck". My daughter and the bagger couldn't stop laughing. I was concerned with the owner coming out and catching us fooling around with his truck. As we drove off, the other Dodge was still honking and flashing. And yes, a lot of people were staring. It was funny.
Once I was at a dept. store and had to use the restroom. So I go in there all cool, and after finishing, I come out and I hear someone screaming for about a minute, calling out to some one "Ma'am", "Ma;am" lol.......it was to ME! She looks at me embarrassed and says...."you have toilet paper hanging out of your pants." OMG! I was so embarrassed, LOL.

A few years ago, I was at the supermarket with my boyfriend. He was driving a light blue company car that seemed to be the color of the year. While shopping, I wasn't feeling well, so I went out to sit in his company car and wait. After about 5 or 10 minutes, a family was outside the car looking at me funny. Then, I looked over and saw my boyfriend driving around the parking lot in his car looking for me. wow, did I feel like the goofball of the year! LOl.. Cheryl

About 16 years ago, I was having problems with stomach ulcers (and gall bladder problems though I didn't know it at the time), that along with IBS. This combination caused me to have some really explosive gas.
My oldest daughter and I were going down an empty aisle at a Schnuck's grocery store, when suddenly I felt an attack coming on. I was practically paralyzed, afraid that "it" would happen in the store. I whispered to my daughter we needed to hurry up and get out of the store and why. I started pushing the cart really quickly down the aisle, and I couldn't believe it, Dana (about 13-14 years old at the time) grabs onto the cart and won't let it go. We're literally struggling over the cart, she was laughing thinking it was really funny. I was ready to kill her! lol Of course, the inevitable happened, very long and very loud.
For a second we were both shocked and she started laughing out loud. I couldn't help it, I started laughing, too. But I got even. Just as someone's cart was starting to come around the corner, I said to her very loudly and in an admonishing voice, "How COULD you!!!" I walked off and let her standing there (with her mouth wide open) as embarrassed as she tried to make me. [You don't mess with a master!]
To this day, we call that "doing a Schnucks". lol
Hope this makes you laugh.

Yesterday. I was having a very rough and depressed day. I was heading to the library, and stopped off at McDonald's to get the grilled chicken special. I went through the drive thru stopped at the first window and paid, then went to the second window got my drink and pulled off. I was busy gulping down my drink that I forgot all about my food. I got to the next traffic light and was getting ready to grab some fries and noticed that there was no bag. Cracking up. I had to turn back around go back through the drive-thru to get my food. I admit, it got me to at least smile at myself. They had my bag waiting for me. Normally I would be embarrassed by something like that, but yesterday I felt like I had enough to feel bad about. Plus, that's not my first time doing that.
I used to brag about how I loved hot peppers so much then a person gave me a cayan pepper I was crying. That thing was so hot I quit bragging after that.

You know how anxiety makes you forgetful sometimes? Three times this week I came to work with either my fly open or with my pants completely undone! Ugh! I'm glad I sit at a desk.

I was at the grocery store one day. I made a very large purchase, well, after having the lady ring up my purchases, I forgot to pay for it and left the store.I realized I made the aweful mistake a mile down the road. I felt small as I went back in the store to pay the bill. The lady was very upset. I never leave without paying anymore. It helps not to take two crying babies.

While I was in college, I went out to eat with 6 of my girl friends. We were seated at a booth with three of us on each side. One of the girls wanted to get a picture of all of us so she asked the waiter if he could take a picture. I got really nervous because I thought everyone was going to look at me and think I was stupid and immature for wanting my picture taken in a resteraunt. Before he even took the picture I started crying. I was so upset b/c I thought everyone was going to look at me b/c I was taking a picture when they probably wouldn't of noticed me if I wasn't crying. I can laugh about it now.

My twin sister and I would go to Wal-Mart together all the time well she knew that I never paid any attention to where we parked,and she would always went to the car before I did and she would sit in the car watching me go all over the parking lot looking for her and i knew she was watching me and laughing,but one day it caught up with her when she got in a car that she thought was hers but it wasnt and someone had their pet iguana in the car and it was sitting on the back of the passenger seat,needless to say i had no trouble finding her that day cause she got out of there screaming.
I have ulcerative colitis, which means that I sometimes need to get to a restroom FAST. I even carry a card from the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) that says, "I can't wait," and explains why. While in a department store one day, the need arose, and I dashed for the restroom. I was very pleased with myself for having made it until I saw the disposal unit for sanitary napkins and wondered, "What's that doing in a men's room?" Then, someone else came in, and I thought, "How do I get out of here?" I waited until she left, then I left, looking straight ahead, ignoring the women outside who were staring at me as I did so. Fortunately, no one complained to the management. I am now more careful to check the sign on a restroom door before I enter, no matter how fast I need to get there.

I know this post is a few months old, but felt compelled to share. When I was 15 and a freshman in highschool, we had to learn CPR in our health class. I felt that I was doing just fine (for someone who is shy and felt a little weird breathing into a dummy) and the teacher instructed the 4 of us with the dummies to 'straddle the dummy'. There were probably 20 other students watching as I picked up each dummy's leg and spread it into the middle splits position, never dreaming that the teacher meant for us to put each leg on either side of the dummy! Hey, I'd been a gynmast since I was 6, and 'straddle' to me was middle splits! I think my teacher almost peed his pants he was laughing so hard (as I turned a bright shade of red completely mortified).
