Embarrased Beyond Words...well except the words I am about to write

Let me share with you an embarrassing story that happened to me today.

I am wearing my glass today because my contacts bothered me. I really need new glasses because one of my lenses always pops out. So it popped out and landed under my desk back towards the wall. So I literally have to crouch under my desk to get it. At the same time I am crouching, my door opens and our website man is here to see me. So I get up off the floor and start talking with him, discussing changes. I decided to leave my glasses off because they only have one lens in. Until I realize that I need at least one lens to see what I need to show him because even one lens is better than no lens because I am blind as a bat. So I go on to discuss this project with him wearing glasses with one lens in them.

So let’s recap.

First of all I never have appointments or see people, but the one day that I do, I am found coming out from under my desk and then wearing glasses with one lens.

I am mortified.

A very sitcom-ish situation you found yourself in. I can decide it is more along the lines of a Seinfeld bit or maybe Laverne and Shirley. I must admit, I was waiting for you to say you bumped your head on the way out from your desk and you layed there in an unconscious and blind heap while the web guy got help.

I had to do the one-lens thing on many occasions. One of them happened to be when I was at a Linkin Park concert and I got to meet the band afterwards. My glasses got kicked off by a crowd surfer and my glasses were demolished. We found the twisted metal remains of the frames and one badly scratched lens. So there I was meeting the band and my friend Travis was leading me around like a blind person and I would hold my one lens to my eye like a monocule just so I could see the guys. That's my story, even if you didn't ask for it.

Your story is way funnier than mine. I love that you had to be lead around and that you had a monacle. And of course that fact that celebrities were involved added that little extra something.

ha ha ha ha...can we call you ol one eye?

I'm glad you didn't fart while you were under there.

Yes, I suppose it is a good thing I didn't fart. I was too busy thinking, I can't believe of all the times to look like an idiot work, it has to be now.
