I Pepper Ghosted Myself! - Page 2

... to which I will add "fraidy cat."

I'm a pepper ghoster, too! But I already told you my story, GC.

(Let's just say late-nite Unsolved Mysteries when you're 12 doesn't help when you're passing the sliding glass door...)

I've also done this:
Had a glass of water in my left hand, someone asked me what time it was and I dumped the glass of water into my own lap.

Here's another bad one:
I have a Big Gulp in my hand. Without looking at my drink, I decide to take a sip of my drink. My mouth searches and searches for a straw and I forgot that I didn't put one in.
Very embarassing.

That's ok- I like dorks.

I've had my moments but I've forgotten them. I'll post when something pops up from the murky recesses of my mind.

GD.. I've done the water thing before... Most of my stories involve falling over because I'm so clumsy.

Last week, at work, I was talking to some co-workers. We were all doing our own thing when... I fell off my rolling chair. I went straight down, but my arse managed to push the chair away. That's all my co-workers saw... the chair rolling away and no me to be seen.

A couple days ago when I got into work, I went to disarm the alarm.. and failed. It was loud and I couldn't get it to stop. It finally stopped when my boss showed up and canceled it (using the stop code that I tried to use)

To make y'all feel better..

*The above-mentioned "strainer incident".

*Tripping on my Dad's hose (GARDEN hose, you freaks

) and actually ripping the entire unit, attached to a metal spindle, along with concrete, out of the wall.

*Once, in my Dad's garage, my purse caught on something. Instead of turning around and seeing what my purse handle had caught on, I kept blindly yanking harder and harder each time to free the handles. It was stuck on my Dad's SHOTGUN which was rocking back and forth violently from my purse pulling. The shotgun was attached to the back of his police motorcycle.

*Actually beginning to ask my boyfriend where the "any" key was on the laptop when the words "press any key" appeared on the screen. Thankfully, I caught myself.

How ass-backwards can one girl be? That's the question we're all asking ourselves today.

I have zillions but from just this weekend. Walking over to the 5K start trying to get the girls awake and excited. I turn around so I'm waking backwards and immediately back into a bench which hits me right behind the knees causing me to fall backward flat onto the bench. But it was quite graceful.

I fell once onstage. During a speech for classroom president in grade school. I think I won because everyone laughed at me falling.

Once during a performance of "Fiddler on the Roof", I totally blanked on the lyrics to my solo song. "Miracle of Miracles" just went right out of my head. The orchestra leader clued me in. I was mortified but it worked with the bumbling character (Motel the Tailor) that I was playing... I still get an adrenaline rush when I think about that flub.

I have always been the very model of grace and decorum.
