22 Oh, this is awkward


- Our family dog Ralph... photos from my Perth trip -
I can't help but laugh looking back at my own awkward moments over the last couple of weeks:
Vaguely recognizing but not really remembering how I knew the (work) person who hugged me after not seeing me for a few months

Wondering whether I could flush the toilet without interrupting the woman in the cubicle next to me who was having an involved conversation on her mobile phone (I did)

Failing to work out a witty and cutting response when someone offered me a bunch of flowers... in return for me taking my shirt off right there in the street (!)

Walking out of a nightclub thinking I was pretty cool, until I noticed the trailing toilet paper stuck to my shoe

Yelling at the taxi driver to go left whilst pointing wildly to the right (lovely husband C. has learned to go the opposite way to whatever I say... taxi drivers? not so much)

Accidentally sitting in the wrong seat on the plane because I wasn't paying attention, so that five people had to move across four rows like some tricky game of tetris when the stewardess came to sort it out.

So... after you finish laughing at me, have you done anything awkward lately?

From New York, with love xox

The other night as Alex was working on a webinar, I actually looked around wondering where the computer was. Oh yeah, right next to me. Oops!

PS- I love the new look!

Hahaha, gosh, I had a good chuckle when I read this post! I can recall a few awkward moments of my own. Also chatting to someone I hadn't seen in ages and not remembering her name or how I knew her. Struggling to push open a hotel entrance door that was meant to be pulled and Too many more! P.S I forgot to tell you how amazing the new blog design looks, so fresh and pretty! Hope you're having a splendid weekend!

I did an akward thing at work not so long ago. I work in a theater as you probably know, well it´s a part time job. And one of my bosses sent for flowers that were brought to the reception and she kept telling me "go to the reception, to the reception" and I had to think for a while where the hell the reception is... Even though I know it very well. So don´t worry, you´re not alone in this ;) xoxo Eve.h
PS: I still mix left and right as well :D
