The time my Dad embarassed the crap out of me
My Dad was known to attend my basketball games (I played and was a rah-rah'er) in plaid pants. And not just ANY plaid pants. Very LOUD plaid pants. My friends would say things like "hey Murry (my nickname in HS) ... what do you think your Dad is wearing tonight?" and people would CHEER when he walked into the gym if he had them on.
Yes ... embarassing moments to be sure. But this one takes the cake.
When I was in college, my parents took a group of high school kids up to Toronto to see Phantom of the Opera. I was able to make the trip, but the caveat was that I had to sleep in my parents' room in the other bed. No biggie, I thought.
I used to wear contacts when I was growing up, before I had my cataract surgeries. Because I was blessed with cataracts when I was born, my vision was very poor without the aid of contacts or glasses. So when I was ready to go to bed, I took my lenses out, and I couldn't see anything. My father used this to his advantage that night in that hotel room.
My mother was having "tummy trouble," and was in the bathroom for some time. I went to bed, and my Dad turned on the tv. He was flipping through the channels when all of a sudden, I hear this cheesy music, and start hearing the sounds of two women... so you get the drift.
I sat straight up in bed, flipped on the light, and my Dad started chuckling.
DAD!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!!!!! I am IN this room with you!!! I might not be able to SEE what you are watching, but I sure as heck am not DEAF!
Haaaa haaa... oh yeah.... ok. Flips the channels again.
About 3 minutes later, hoping I had gone to sleep, what channel is back on? Yep.
So I pulled out the big guns...
MOM! You wouldn't believe what Dad has on in here!!!
What is he watching?
A PORNO! With ME in the room!!!
JERRY!!!!! You turn that off RIGHT NOW!
Heh heh .... the remote control was stuck.
Stuck my butt.

I'm a mom of three peeps ... Queen Bee, The Door Man, and the Chandelier Monkey, and wife to Ace, the Helpful Hardware Man. I created this space to get away from the people known as my inlaws, and because life with three kids and a hubby is all Unexplored Territory.
The nine-year-old who seems to be growing older every minute, has an opinion and a comment for everything, and has a true servant's heart.
The seven-year-old who loves the organization of things, will someday be someone's therapist because of his kind soul, and will more than likely be living with us until he is 40 years old.
The five-year-old with the 13-year-old attitude, who has a dictator's personality, asks you to watch her all the time and say "hold on" to keep your attention, and will someday come home on the back of some dude's motorcycle with 10 tatts and a body piercing or two.
The man of the house, the fixer of things, the winner of prizes, and the only person in his family to escape the South.

Hugs!
Yeah - "stuck"...RIGHT!! ;-) Funny story!
OMG, I would be horrified and need therapy.
hehehehe. Very funny!
I'm sorry, I'm just laughing my ass off here. I think I'd have died if that happened to me.
Have you asked them to pay for your therapy yet?
Oh... I have since paid him back. He saw me eight and a half months pregnant ... naked as the day I was born. In his bathroom. I thought he was my husband coming up the stairs at their house. It wasn't. And their bathroom door opened out ... so I had to step OUT into the hallway to get the door to get it to shut.
Good times, man. Good times.
OMG. I just about spit coffee all over the monitor! completely laughing here. Mere, you are a good time! Maybe I will sleep with you at QOTC! ::wink, wink::
Funny! No flies on him! Thanks for sharing!
