how embarassing

[chrisroski]

My boyfriend & I like to go to the casinos and play the penny machine. On Saturday, I wanted some water, well dummy me forgot to put the thick it in the bottle & went to drink it like normal and of course I choked on it, all over me & my pocketbook, coughing like crazy. This sweet old lady sitting next to me gave me some tissues and got my boyfriend. People were looking at me, I was embrassed, but I guess it could be worse.

can top that chrisroski.
was on a public bus with my son,when it stopped for us to get off in town( i usually wait to let others get passed first)my son got up then me............my right leg thought it was a good time to let rip a myoclonic contraction and flew up in the air.........of course my other leg went and i ended flat on my back in the middle of the bus isle.........thankfully i only hurt my hand that i trapped under a seat........plus my pride.
you have to learn to laugh off these little mishaps.
hope you have recovered.

Too funny! Now, that is... you have to be able to laugh at these things we can't control...

Look for Al's story about riding the lawnmower...

That is embarassing when it wants to go down the wrong tube so quickly, I have tried the "thick it" and it works I just don't like it. Nothing worse than having it happen in public also, when people don't really understand it happens to us more than just a person taking a drink too quick.
The big question's are.....Did you win? Was the machine ok? Do you think the casino camara's "zoomed" in on you during your episode?
My wife and I love the casino's.....we play Atlantic City or here in the Pocono's.

With me, my embarrassment is the words that escape my mouth when I'm about to fall. Not G rated at all! Nasty words just escape when I hit hard floors suddenly!
