Anyway, the group I was visiting with started talking about our most embarrassing moments. I have had a fair share, and I have written about a few of them here. I have one more story, which I shared last night, that I have never posted about. It was truly mortifying for me.
Christian and I had been married for a couple of years. We lived in my grandma's basement, and you had to go around to the back of the house to the sliding glass door to access our apartment. It was really quiet, and we had no neighbors adjacent to our back yard.
Our computer was set up in our living room, which was easily viewed from the sliding glass door. One day, Christian was at school and it was my day off. I was just about ready to jump in the shower, and I decided to check my email really quickly before I got in. I was standing in front of the computer desk, in my undergarments, when Christian's best friend walked around the corner, up to the sliding glass door and knocked.
I looked at him (with a deer-in-the-headlights stare, I'm sure). He looked at me. And I bolted. I ran to the bedroom as quickly as I could. And I swear, the rest is a blur. I don't know if I got dressed and went out and talked to him, or if I hid in my room until he left.
I embarrassingly told my husband what happened that night. The next day, when he talked to his friend, his friend said, "All I saw was a flash of white." (If there is a silver lining in all of this, it is this: at least he saw a flash of white, and not a flash of flesh!)
My husband and Jeremy are still best friends. And Jeremy still likes to tease me about it. (It has been 12 years.)
And that, my friends, is my most embarrassing story. (I'm sure some of you have worse stories. You are welcome to share, if you would like!)

Actually, I've never had a single embarassing thing happen to me. Or, there have been incidents that have been so horrible and traumatic, I've blocked them totally from my mind. ☺
How about stripping down for a doctor's appointment when it wasn't necessary? Yep, that was me! At least the doctor thanked me for it anyway.
That would be embarrasing! It's nice that you can look back and laugh... You are laughing, right? :)
I can't think of anything embarrassing, off the top of my head, but I know I have had similar experiences.
P.S. How are you doing? I've been meaning to email you. I'm horrible, I know!
Hahaha! That is funny (to the person it didn't happen to). I blame the email. Only because I do that as well. Check my email in my skivvies, I mean.
There was a lady on my mission, and every time we went to her house to teach her, there was a bit of a naked moment. The first time there was a flash of flesh. The second time, a bath towel wrapped around her as she ran past the open door. The third time, she wanted to show us a bruise on her thigh. She dropped her pants. It was so awkward it makes me laugh to remember it.
Oh my goodness, I would DIE!!!! That is SOOOOO embarrassing :) Glad you can laugh about it now.
Hahahaha! That's a pretty good one! You did a great job last night and I really enjoyed myself. I did take off with a serving spoon though. Who do I return it to?
I had a similar experience- minus the 'flash of white', plus the 'flash of, well, flash'. Ugh!
HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! That is so funny!!!!!!!
How about thinking the deep voice in your bedroom is your husband's, but discovering it is your 18-year old son's.... Right as you walk out of the shower. Without your towel. Yeah. Really bad. We never talk about it. Lol
I can't leave any comment now, I need to go to the hospital, to stop the giggling....
I have a very similar story that involved my (male) realtor knocking on the front door, which is surrounded by large windows, and me just getting out of the shower. He's never said anything, and I don't know what he saw, but I am mortified if I even think about it. Ack.
I stopped by to say hello, and wonder how you're doing and saw that I didn't comment on this post. I did enjoy it, though. It was like something from a movie. :)
When I first started reading I thought you were going to be a flash of flesh instead of white, so I was relieved for you! Thanks for sharing :) I can't ever remember mine except just one in high school when I farted in front of some new friends. They stayed my friends luckily!
