Mosca | 828 comments No apologies necessary, Sowmya. :) :) :)

My apologies to you!

Too many bookworms like me, and not enough sports enthusiasts. ;)

Confession--I read a lot in high school, because I was so poor in all competitive sports that few would ever pick me for a team. I now have a lifelong apathy for public team sports--and a love for reading.

No offense intended to those who love spectator sports.

I only enjoy sports (limited to tennis and cricket) as a spectator, i.e. when I can pull myself away from a good book!

5. I was working in an open kitchen wearing a skirt and at some point during the day the back got caught on something and ripped a little. As I moved around I guess it got worse and eventually my co-worker said he never imagined I'd be the type to wear hot pink underwear, so I turned around and looked at my ass and there were my panties. Luckily it was a skirt so I just turned it around so the tear was in front and could be covered by my apron.

6. Which of my many? :)- A week ago I was straightening up my house and refolding my nightie drawer which had become very messy. Anyway, my mother-in-law stopped over and was chatting with me. She kept looking at me weird and I finally realized that I was holding a very lacy, very see-through, very naughty lingerie item and waving it around as I talked. I went bright red, hastily folded it and tucked it away.

7. I was walking around school when we were on our way to lunch i fell and slid across the floor and almost everyone just turned and laughed

8. Being visually disabled, I get into these types of situations a LOT. One day at a salad bar in a restaurant, I was fixing my salad and thought I saw my husband (dressed in red shorts and a white T-shirt) on the other side of the salad bar. I walked over to him, slapped him on the butt and said "Hey where've you been all my life!" To my shock, I looked up and saw a woman (also dressed in red shorts and a white T-shirt) looking at me with a horrided face. I couldn't say, "T thought you were my husband." So, I just apologized and said, "I thought you were someone else." My husband had watched the whole thing take place and was cracking up! I laughed too! I have to keep your sense of humor intact at all times!!!
