new chapter to embarrassing book

Ode to the embarrassing moments... If you know me at all, you know that i have many many of these. Honestly, my mom is always telling me i aughta just write them down into a book somewhere. So with that i've joked with a bunch of my friends of an idea of something like that. A book of rob's slip ups or other embarrassing junk. How about one of those calandars? you know, the ones that you tear off a page for each day, and there is a little message or picture of some sort one each page. I just need to write down 365 embarrassing moments and i could be a calendar!! wow, that'd be great wouldn't it.
k, well i had quite the experience today. One full of interesting stuff, allow me to enlighten you...

Once upon a time rob had some work pants that he wore to work at macey's. Well these pants had a few little holes in the backside. Rob's mom being the kind lady she is was concerned for everyone who had to look at it... yet Rob being the dumb kid just thought "who's gonna look at my butt anyways?" So Rob's mom takes the innitiative and goes to the store for more pants. She brings em home and throws away the bad pair. Well... the next day rob needs to go to work. So he gets up at 5 to get ready to go. First he takes a shower, then comes back makes his bed cleans his room a bit then finds the new pair of pants.

Well rob tried to put them on... turns out they are two inches to small in the waist. and of course the other pants are long since gone. But rob is running late there is not very much time for many options here. He had to choose to either suck it up or go get his dad's pants which would be wide enough for him, but there just is something wrong with guys wearing capris... I chose to suck it up.

I go to work... feeling so awkward. Please put this image in your head if you dare. Rob is wearing pants that are skin tight to work. If i kneel or bend over at all i am somewhat limited to how much i can do before i hear a rip in the back side. but if i was really careful... and slow... i could do anything i needed to at the job! now add this to the image. The only way to get the pants on is to pull them up clear up to my belly button, thats the only place i could get the button to work... So i get my apron on and get to work. I'm working, hard workin man at macey's... all of the sudden i just feel so sick. I'm guessing its all the pressure on my bladder. You really have no idea, i felt like i was getting stabbed in the gut. I practically was.

So My mom, being the fabulous wonderful and most awesome mom ever sends me a text saying she got new better pants and asked if i wanted them now or not. I said yes as fast as i could. So she says she'd hurry but didn't know exactly when she'd be over. I wait patiently and get back to work. So now your wondering where the embarrassing part is right? well let me tell you, its pretty embarrassing to be seen in these pants in the first place, but the worst is yet to come...

Mom shows up with nothing in her hands. I go and talk to her and i ask her where they were. (totally expecting them to come out of her purse or something...) but listen to this. This was not the answer i needed to hear. "I gave them to emily at the service desk."

Emily just happens to be one of the cutest girls i've ever met. A girl that it took me months to even get the courage to talk to. But now we talk and just kid at each other all the time. can you imagine the fear i have going up and getting the pants? "hey uh... can i get my pants?" no doubt the first thing she would say would be a question of why i need them... oh boy that'd be bad... well turns out everything went fine and it didn't turn out to be as embarrassing as i thought it'd be... but it still was pretty bad.

Thats the embarrassing plug for today, maybe i can dedicate a day of the week for embarrassing stories.. i'll think about that one, but for now, peace out world. Keep in touch. I love you all.

P.S. Congrats to matt ruben, going to perth australia!!! aussies rock! haha way cool, two missionaries in australia from the same ward at the same time!
