"How comes it always happen to me?!"
On a train going home from work the other day, I became heavily involved in a conversation with my friend over the phone (yes I confess, I am at times that person on a train!). Anyway, it appears I was so heavily involved in this conversation that only when I started laughing having just said something sarcastic, did I realise that either my joke was not so funny or . . . we'd been cut off - thus making the joke redundant, null and void!! I could just feel the whole train silently celebrating and thinking "Good; maybe now she'll get the hint!" At least it wasn't as bad as the time where in the middle of saying something, the phone rings whilst I'm STILL holding it to my ear, having not realised that it had locked off at all. Maybe that's saying something about me and my gob!! LOL
Ohhh, I could go on FOREVER sharing my experiences of historical blunders. Like the time BDSS was getting ready for a night out. Since it was my turn to be the indecisive one of the night (which earrings girl? Jeans or a skirt girl? Is this too much eye makeup girl??!) I couldn't decide which pair of high heeled sandals worked best; strappy with a bit of bling or just strappy. So I tried on one of each to see which worked best, decided and that was that. Alas, did I not swing my feet out of the car onto the pavement to see that I still had one of each pair on, completely different in look and style so no chance of trying to blag a new fashion trend! Completely horrified, I left everyone there and drove all the way back home to fix up and sort myself out.
And last but most certainly not the least embarrassing, is the time I stacked it in Nandos in my new high heeled boots (I won't say which one because an employee could be reading this thinking oh yes, I remember that!!) You know them kind of killer heels BDSSers, the kind that you found on a true bargain and makes you look WHOA! so you go on with the attitude to match. Only, I hadn't considered how slippery the floors would be considering it was raining outside and needless to say, I was happy I removed the price labels from the soles otherwise the whole restaurant would have known about my bargain!!!
Oh but BDSS; please do not think you get off lightly. I have been witness to some mishaps over the years that I'm sure they prayed I'd neglect to mention. . .(*witch's cackle*)
BDSS (Bi): "I'm Dreaming of a 'White' Christmas!"
Preparing for yet again another night out (which happened to be Victorian themed night), our dear friend Bi thought she'd look hottie nubian victorian if she turned up in cream shorts, white tights and a head gear to match! Imagine dressing up for your holy communion; minus the dress which normally goes over the all white undies, hehe!! That certainly brought tears to our eyes!!
Don't laugh too hard Si, you're up next!!
BDSS (Si); "I'm Stuck Here With the 'Girl' In the Mirror - Oh Yea!"
On this occasion, Si and I made an appearance were making a night of it and decided to go out. We entered the bar and as we ladies do, headed straight to the ladies to make sure we're still looking hot! However, our dear BDSSer, leading the way, suddenly became stuck and couldn't seem to navigate her way past this woman who just wouldn't stand still to let her pass. Now coincidentally, this woman was the same height as Si and even more spookier had the same top on as her; needless to say she was dancing with her own reflection in a mirror at the back of the bar!! Calmly but firmly, I held my dear friends by the shoulders, steered her in the right direction and guided her safely to the ladies; I can assure you that I struggled to maintain my composure for quite a while afterwards!!
And last, but certainly by no means least:
BDSS (Sel); "You Raise Me UP!"
Sel and I were out just a few weeks ago when in a restaurant, we found that the dancefloor was downstairs and accessible by an escalator. Now please note we had arrived not too long beforehand so "blame it on the juice, got u feelin loose" simply doesn't cut it in this instance :D. Not a complete surprise, there were two escalators; one coming up and the other going down, simple right?? No no no, our BDSSer maybe thought she was here to train and run treadmill because she proceeded to the wrong escalator and if it were not for my love of the girl, goodness knows how that night would have ended. That would have been one quick night out!
Another memory includes a friend (who shall remain nameless) who joined me in taking a half day from work and an afternoon of shopping. Safe on her train, she thought she'd read her paper except when she went to take it out of the bag that held her new purchases, she only whips out a fresh pair of sexy undies which proceeded to fly through the air and land on the shoes of a gentleman who was sat opposite. Texting this to me, I was absolutely wetting myself as I could just imagine the serious case of embarrassment that her face would have struggled to hide!!

So, there you have it - although it's hard to believe we are not always in perfect form (haha)! Com'on BDSS'ers, I know we aint the only klutz out here - what is your most embarrassing memory?
