welcome to awkward moments, according to me.

- Long skinny narrow cheese blocks. Could they be any more difficult to grate? I'm sure they just make them this size to fool you into thinking there's more cheese to it. Don't buy into it, friends. It's weird. It's awkward.

- Having to go pee. Just the fact that I have to go. It can be such a nuisance and waste of time, folks. No. No. I don't want to spend the time undoing my pants to go washroom only to do them up again in a moment of seconds. And then the procedure of washing hands, drying hands. Over and over again in a day. Having to go pee just strips you away of control. You're forced into it every time. WAIST. OF. MY. TIME. I'm sure there are better things I could be doing in a day then spending it in the washroom {oh, the awkwardness is in the confession of this, if you were wondering}.

- Going into a book store, trying to be discrete about the book I'm looking for only to realize the clerk is someone I know. Um. Yah, Hi. Do you have a book on fertility? No. Ok good. Now that you know more about my life than I cared to share at this point I'm just gonna go. Cya!

- Driving in the car while adjusting my nose ring when another car pulls up beside you. They think I'm just going at er in my nose. When really, I'm like "No. I'm not. Really truly. I have a nose ring. See, here. Look at my noise." Oi. They drive away with a story to tell their family. I drive away feeling confused about what just happened. Btw, I don't know what's more awkward. The awkward actions I do to try to prove I have a noise ring or them thinking the alternative option. Oh, the things we do to look cool.

- Having someone watch you hold a newborn. This has awkward written all over it. These little guys squirm, ya'll. One minute their head is up and your like, "awe. cute. look...ahhhhh, it just detached!" Um. They're just unpredictable. And despite all the experience one has with the newborn world, it's still just all awkward. You're always asking, "Has this person ever done this before?"

- Being new to the whole mango eating world. You buy one and look forward to eating it. But when you venture to do so you choose to do so in a group of people. Bad move. How do you eat this thing anyways. Do you eat the peel? How do you carve it? And, how do you know if it's rotten? I mean, it looks rotten. But I'm trying to look as though I know what I'm doing here. I mean if you're gonna eat a new food you want to look as though you're a pro at it. At least I do.  So. I eat it. Weirdly. Awkwardly. But I think I fooled them.

- Sitting in the bathroom when the lady besides you just lets er' rip. Over and over again. UM. I'M HERE YOU KNOW. Or, does she know? So I scuffle my feet. See you're not alone. Oh and then there's the awkwardness of leaving the stall. How quick can I possibly wash my hands so she doesn't see my face? The weird thing though, I mean in all fairness this should her awkward moment but some how I've adopted it as mine. Sheesh.

oh. Sorry about the multiple bathroom comments but they're just ripe with awkwardness.
