The other day I was feeling pale so I decided to go tanning. I get there and the nice, slightly overweight, teenie bopper employee get my info, figures out a bed for me, then, very genuinely compliments me on how white my teeth are. Now, it's something I've been insecure about because I haven't actually whitened my teeth in a while and I drink diet coke like my life depends on it. (OK I'm actually quite sure my life and those around me are in question when I don't get enough diet coke..) Dark sodas can stain your teeth, I'm not giving it up though! Back to the point here, she compliments my white teeth, we talk about it for a minute then I go to my room, and check out my "white teeth" in the mirror and what do i see?! A freaking piece of broccoli, staring me in the face from my bottom teeth. SHIT! How long has it been there? Clear since my veggie crepe for breakfast!? How many people have I talked to since then? I usually don't talk so big that I reveal my bottom teeth, but could she see it and was just trying to politely worn me? She's an employee at a tanning salon, does she have it in her to be that smooth?!
How many times have I tried to smooth out my appearance before going to public places? ALL THE TIME! Once I was walking into Target and I suddenly had the fear that my fly was down, so I sneakily check it, nope its up, but now my $1 "one-size fits all gloves" (you know, the kind that are knit and you have to stretch them way out to fit them on your hands) gets caught on the zipper! This is in the parking lot of Target! Yes, my glove finger was caught on my zipper, go ahead and laugh. Fortunately I panicked so I had enough strength to rip my glove off my pants.. Hopefully before anyone saw me!
Do embarrassing things like this happen to everyone? Or is it just me?
