These are great!
When I was fourteen, I was walking home from the recreation center. Some high school boys teams were playing soccer and there were some HOT players. I became so engrossed in watching them and appreciating their beauty (mentally drooling) that I walked into a lamppost which knocked me flat on my butt. God, it was soooo embarrassing!
When I was doing the Human Chess Match for the Renaissance Festival. I was cast as the White Queen on the chessboard. For my first match ever in front of an audience, I stepped out onto the board and faced my opponent (a really big guy--I was a much smaller, sweet-looking girl--so I was trying to look tough and competent while feeling a wave of stage fright) when a woman's voice squealed, "That's my baby!" My mom was in the audience waving her hands and shouting and videotaping the whole thing. Everyone laughed. You can even hear it on the videotape.
@jarrow - you're great for doing that! You have my utmost respect and admiration.
@vinceasuna - LOL, the bike incident is just too funny. You just can't salvage any pride in a situation like that!
