Possibly the most embarrasing moment of my life
Published on April 14, 2007 By Sugar High Elf In Life Journals
Since the recent cold snap, I've had to wear my old jeans that are too big for me. Unfortunately for me, not only are they too big because I've lost a good deal of weight, but also because they stretch like crazy. However, they're the only pair of jeans I have left, and it's too cold to wear my new Capri pants that actually fit.

So, I'm going to Walmart this afternoon in my two-sizes too big pants. They keep heading south, mostly because of the keys in my pocket, but I keep hitching them up. You might ask why I don't just wear a belt, and that is a good question. The answer is: I don't own a belt. I don't like wearing them and, until recently, had no need for one.

Fortunately for me, I was looking at flowers in the back part of the store when my pants took a major dive -- right around my ankles. That's right folks, I lost my pants in Walmart. I think my whole body was blushing. I then dropped the flowers I was holding, spilling dirt all over the floor, just to get my pants up before anyone came around the corner. I managed to get decent and pick up the flowers and some of the dirt before anyone came around.

Just because no one saw me, I was still mortified. They probably caught me on camera -- but I hope not. My cheeks are still bright red.

I walked quickly to the belt section, and then to the checkout line. Now, I'm blogging about it because I know, someday, I will look back on this and think it was funny. Right now, however, I'm still cringing with embarrassment. I'm also not leaving my room for the rest of the weekend. I don't care if the building catches on fire, I'm staying right where I am.

Fortunately, there is no YouTube clip to put in the article this time.

LOL

Oh, lord. Gid, you are NOT helping!

That's so funny. Poor you!

During the last deployment I lost about 20 lbs (that I later gained back with a vengeance) and I had a pair of jeans do the same thing to me. I was walking back home after dropping the boys off at school. I had a cell phone and keys in my pocket.

I was thankful that:

a) No one was around

I decided to wear underwear that day

Sorry that happened to you, SHE, but it made me giggle!

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that...


Possibly the most embarrasing moment of my life.

I can only imagine the look on your face when your pants dropped. Hopefully it's your most embarrassing moment. If it gets to Youtube you may have to write a whole new article.

btw .. when you say your cheeks were red which cheeks are you ... oh nevermind.

I was wearing underwear. Unfortunately for me, it's a pair that says, "I'm an Aries" on the front, and the characteristics of an Aries on the back. They're such goofy panties... but since no one saw...

I'm glad someone gets to laugh about this. I can't, yet, but I know I will someday.

If it makes it on youtube, you have my solemn promise that I will NOT be sharing it here on JU. I don't mind sharing the story, but ya'll don't need a visual.

And, I think it's safe to say that both sets of cheeks were red. I was very embarrassed.

Not funny, not funny at all.

I feel your pain.  Something similar happened to me at the zoo last Summer but I know for sure that people saw me.  I was very pregnant and had a maternity skirt on over support hose (trying to tame my vericose veins).  Well, apparently the hose were quite slippery and it was a very windy day.  We were exiting the zoo and all of the sudden my back side felt very drafty.  I stopped the boys in their tracks and noticed that the back side of my skirt had slipped all the way down to my knees and my bum was hanging out for the poor crowds to see.

I was totally mortified and we made very good time getting back to the car.  I only hope that people didn't say anything out of pity for the poor pregnant woman with two kids in tow rather than not saying anything because they were throwing up in their mouths.

You poor, poor thing. I would have been mortified as well. At least no one saw me. (Except for the security guys who will put the video on YouTube)

lol...oh man...

Thankfully I don't have this problem. Nothing on me shrinks, it only gets larger. I have a huge ass, huge hips, and roll number two to hold everything up.

Sorry for your embarrassment, though SHE, but it sure made for a good article.

This reminds me of the time I was REALLY embarrassed...and it was in front of someone...

I wasn't feeling very well, and I was riding with my cousin. We're the kind of cousins that are okay with farting in front of each other and we're the kinds that also like to see who can stink each other out the most (he usually wins). Anyway, I wasn't feeling well, and my tummy felt a little gurgly, so I tooted. It smelled really bad, and I kinda choked my cousin, so I was proud of myself, but the smell just kinda smelled for a LONG time. When I got out of the truck I found out WHY...ummm...oops. It was kind of a wet fart. We were at the store and I sure as hell wasn't going to walk around with crap in my shorts and I sure as hell wasn't going to take off my pants to take off my shorts in a busy restroom, so I got out my nail clippers and cut off my undies that way.

Hopefully that will make you feel a little less embarrassed. Now I'm embarASSed remembering that. My cousin that happened with died in October and I never told him that...he would have totally busted a gut laughing...

Yikes! Sorry you went through that wardrobe malfunction! Lucky for you it wasn't during a Superbowl halftime show.

For what it's worth...I once wore a t-shirt to school inside out...didn't know until someone pointed it out to me (and not in a polite way...they were cackling as they told me).

I think I've finally stopped blushing. I'm glad I'm not the only one who has had, as InBloom said, a "wardrobe malfunction". Yes, I am very glad mine was not televised... unless those security guys got a copy to put on YouTube...
