Bad dressing (it's better than bad behaviour!)
Are your shorts on inside out? - gentle query from respectful husband.
Did you go walking like that??? - appalled comment from teenage son.
Apparently, yes, to both questions. What can I say?
In the words of Sara Jeannette Duncan - "One loses many laughs by not laughing at oneself."
Very true although I do admit to being grateful for two things.
1. That I was just on a training walk by myself and not coaching a class of 20!
2. That my shorts did not have contrasting colours of inner liner versus outer short!
If you feel like sharing any of your own inglorious moments. Post here! It's good to laugh!

Okay, I have not just worn my capris inside out, I have worn them back to front - which I only figured out when I had to keep tugging at the waist in the back. That is what happens when you dress in the dark trying not to wake hubby.
And then there was the time I decided to use the port o potty before the race. It was dark as I sat down and suddenly felt a warmth down my legs. The toilet seat lid was down! Fortunately,in the dark, no one could notice and I had a damp first few kilometres. I could not wait to get home and shower.
We won't even talk about the time, I inadvertantly introduced my friend as "my partner" instead of "my walking partner" to a group which elicited some very raised eyebrows.
Yes, we really do have to laugh at ourselves, especially when we give ourselves such good fodder. Nevertheless, I prefer to remain anonymous for this one!
Made me laugh...I have yet to have anything like that happen with respect to WALKING, BUT since Feb. when puppy got sick and is on prednisone....she gets up alot in night and needs to 'go' around 5:30-6:00 a.m. I just grab my top and shorts that I leave by bedside and invaribly they are inside out. I sometimes dont go back to bed and then when the family gets up, they look at me kind of funny...it is so easy to do
Oh, I loved this. I felt so at home with your comments. So far I've not had the pleasure of wearing things inside out, etc, but I wouldn't put it past me to have it happen one day.
Thanks for being brave enough to share.
Hopefully it was really early in the morning...
Well Darlene, it was 6pm - yes, everyone-driving-home-from-work-hour. And I spoke with my neighbour who was driving down the street. She stopped her car and rolled down her window to speak with me. My inside liner was right at eye-level! She was too polite to say anything!
WOW the story gets better........
Hi,
I just can't stop laughing by reading the comments. Sorry for that. Any way your post seems to be a little bit humorous.
