When my husband was in the army, he was in uniform more often than not. It wasn't unusual for us to run a quick errand together or meet for lunch. On this particular day, we went to the local Stars and Stripes book store. As we walked in, I spotted a friend and went over to talk to her and Michael went on into the store to look around. After finishing up my conversation, I went looking for Michael and when I spotted him I walked up behind him and pinched his butt! Imagine my surprise when he turned around and it
wasn't Michael! Oh. My. Gosh. I turned every shade of red imaginable and I just wanted to die! I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me. I stuttered and stammered my apology to this stranger and he laughed and said, "Don't worry about it. It happens all the time"! Could it get any worse?
Michael, along with everyone else in this tiny little store, heard the commotion and he came looking for me. I told him what happened and he was just dying laughing! I told him I was sorry but everyone looks the same in uniform. He got very serious and just looked at me and said, "but I'm not in uniform"! WHAT??? No, no he wasn't!!! I just died all over again!
So, you know I have to ask...What was your most embarrassing moment?
