Your most embarassing moment.....

Oh, have I got a terrible one. Let me see if I can make this, um, family-friendly.

When I was about 12, I had this very elderly teacher who was very strict about students going to the bathroom in the middle of class. She just did not give bathroom passes for anything, she said you were supposed to go in the break between classes. Well, you know how it is when you're just starting to, uh, be a woman...and sometimes the Red Tide shows up unexpectedly yet enthusiastically?

So I raised my hand and asked to go to the bathroom. Of course, she said no. Then, about 20 minutes later, she announced that it was my row's turn to collect the quizzes and bring them to her desk, so I got to walk around the whole classroom, squelching all the way. As I handed her the quizzes, a trail of blood all over the classroom behind me, and a giant puddle worthy of a Friday The 13th movie underneath my desk, I whispered, "Can I please go to the nurse? It's an emergency." She didn't even look up, but yelled at the top of her lungs, "Are you going to throw up?" I said no, it's just an emergency, I need the nurse. "If you're not going to throw up, it's not an emergency, go sit down and quit wasting my time!" She didn't even look at me, meanwhile the whole class was deadly silent except for little giggles. She went right back to teaching. Of course, after class I got to walk all the way across the building dripping blood and leaving bloody sneaker-prints in front of the whole entire school, to the nurse's office.

The nurse had to drive me home to get showered and changed, because my mother wasn't answering her phone at work, either.

OMG that has to be the funniest thing I have ever heard.

When my now 23 year old son was about 18 months old, I was standing in the bank wearing a tube top (remember them, do they still make them lol) The bank was packed and Cory pulled down my tube top I let out a little cry of alarm which made everyone look at me. A little old lady in front of me said "I think your baby is hungry, dear" I was very embarresed

OMG,, I would have changed banks! But a little old lady can cover for anything you know?
 
Here's one of mine...
Last winter when DD was learning to talk, there were a lot of words she knew but couldn't pronounce properly.

Well, one of those words was 'clock' she would say it without the 'L'. It was kinda cute. Then one day we were at the crowded mall and they have a giant clock surrounded by benches, so people go there to rest and meet-up. Suddenly she sees the clock and starts to yell "A big clock!! A clock! A big Clock!!" (of course minus the "L")
Everyone one turned to look at us and some people were starting to giggle. I felt my face getting red and DD kept yelling about the clock. Then I heard my self say, "Yes, Kendra that's a Cllllock". :eek:

How awful for you! I had a little girl in the other half of my portable sneak through the connecting door because her teacher wouldn't let her take care of that same problem. That teacher used to ask me to watch her class while SHE went to the restroom, so next time she asked I told "No it's not an emergency", luckily I share my portable with a much nicer person now!
 
I'm glad that this topic came up. For years I've agonized over my most embarrasing moment. Just the thought of it would make my face burn red. Sometimes I dream about all those people staring at me as I went back to pick up my skirt and put it back on. Several of the people who saw it happen were on my flight and it was the longest flight ever.

Anyway. I am so glad this topic came up because since I've read all these stories, I don't feel so bad anymore. In fact, I find myself laughing at some of these stories and I see that we are all human and go through this sort of thing.

Thank you all for sharing your most embarassing moments.
