Writer's Block: Red-faced and ruddy

I embarrassed myself as a child on a regular basis, which probably led to me becoming the inhibited self-preserving specimen I am today! Oh let's see, a toss up between the day I had to go pee SO BAD that I had an accident while we were doing jumping jacks in gym class (and pee ran down my leg... I remember this day as everyone being ushered out of the room as the room flooded with pee... no joke, I can still picture the ocean of pee in my memory! Clearly I couldn't have peed that much so my imagination must have taken over when someone drew attention to my predicament) ... or perhaps the day I tripped on the sidewalk walking down the street to my friend's birthday party, right in front of her house, my dress flew up and everyone saw my underwear and laughed at me, I turned around and ran home... or maybe when I was a little older, middle school, being forced to do a debate in which I was the person fielding questions from the other team and I had absolutely no clue as to how to prepare, and my answers consisted of "um, I dunno" and it went on FOREVER and I wanted to switch schools after that but my parents wouldn't let me... LOL.
Fast forward about 10 years from that, and it was the day I had utterly convinced myself that I could get my jerkface boyfriend back if only I TOLD him everything I was FEEEEEELING and how AMAZING he is... he agreed to meet me and hear me out, and he let me go on and on basically begging him to take me back, promising to change, all that shiz... for him to just coldly tell me it was too late, he was in love with the whore he left me for. Okay, maybe this one should win "most humiliating day"!
