I will give you my mishap: When I was 16 years old my boyfriend took me home to his parents at lunchtime. We all sat together at a big kitchen table. We were served veggies and a hot Polish sausage. I was about to cut the sausage - when it flew off my plate, across the entire kitchen floor.... I was so embarrassed that I almost cried. All laughed about it but me.......

i first started learning how to speak spanish several years back and i was hoping i could practice with the hispanic contractors who were working on my home at the time. after two full days of reading, i felt i had mastered many of the basic conversational phrases. one of the men asked me "how old are you?". i replied, "tengo veinte nueve (29) anos". they all busted out laughing. some of them were just howling in laughter. when i asked him why, he responded, "you meant to say "años" with a rolled n. apparently instead of saying i am 29 years old, i told the men i had 29 anuses. i will never live that down.

Karin, honestly the #1 mishap is far too embarrassing to tell even my closest friend, so never in public. A lesser embarrassment came when I was in my 20's and on a date with a young man I really liked. I had been taking diving lessons and wanted to show off. I also was a lap swimmer and always trained in a one piece suit. For my special date, I wore a somewhat skimpy 2-piece. I was not thinking! I came off the board in my stunning dive and the instant I hit the water BOTH pieces came off. One went in one direction and one in the other. The pool was very crowded. I won't bore you with how it was resolved you can only imagine....

Sure, I've had many times where I wanted to make an extra good impression. No, I would not like to share.
