Not embarrassing until now

Embarrassing Things, Part Five: some quickies

• I got my car stuck on a planter box four hours after I was issued my first driver's license.


• I once threw up whilst clinging to the side of a moving dumpster that I accidentally dislodged from its place in the parking lot on the first day of a new job.


• I once lied about spilling soda on an adding machine that begat a huge office whodunit that ended with my tearful admission in front of an office full of managers.
• I once called my husband "Mommy" in front of guests.
• I once asked for a ticket to "Edinbur-g", even though I *knew* it was pronounced "Edinbrur-rah".
