Embarrassing Moments- Take Two!

My son has become really interested recently in the villains in stories, so we've been talking about "bad guys" and what makes them "bad". Well, my husband (ever concrete as he is) told my son that the guy "in black" is usually the bad guy. We're at his swim lessons last week and there was a black man and his daughter waiting for the lessons to start and you know where this is headed:

Son: Mommy, is that a bad guy?
Me: No, honey- why would you think that?
Son: Because daddy says the black guy is usually the bad guy
Me:

Pretty much speechless. I muttered through an explanation to the man, who graciously went along with it and said something about his daughter assuming that all white men couldn't dance, but it was MORTIFYING!

I locked myself out of the house yesterday - came home from dropping kids off at daycamp and running errands, pulled car into garage, unlocked the door to the kitchen, set down what I was carrying and went back into the garage to get other stuff.
Tricky thing with the door from the garage to the kitchen is that when you turn the key in the doorknob lock, it opens the door but doesn't pop out the button lock, so unless you manually undo the button lock from inside, the door will lock again when it closes. So I've got my next load of stuff and turn the doorknob and realize the door is locked.... and my purse (housekeys, wallet, cell phone) are all on the *other* side of the locked door! Fortunately I still had the *car* keys with me so I was still able to pick up my kids (while praying that I wouldn't get pulled over and have to show my missing license!). But in the mean time I had to go to a neighbor's house to use the phone and call my folks and in-laws to ask if we'd given them a spare key (we hadn't) and even had to ask MIL for DH's work phone # b/c my phone and address book were all in the house.
Fortunately DH was understanding and didn't tease me endlessly over this (partly because he had locked his briefcase and car keys in his car at work not too long ago and had to call AAA to get the car unlocked!)

Ooh ooh! Me! Last weekend we went to a dinner theater w/ the IL's, DD, and our niece.
It is a buffet dinner theater where you walk down and get dinner that is set up on the stage. Weird Ohio place. ;)
Anyhoo, I had on a new cute summery black dress and decided to wear some shoes I haven't worn in about 10 YEARS.
(Seems wedges are everywhere again so figured I could wear them again.)

Well walking into the place I thought I stepped in gum...nope, my shoe fell apart. By the time we were walking down to get dinner I was flip floppin' in both of them. Walking like Frankenstein's monster praying the glue would hold till it was over-thankfully it did.

Lol. So embarrassing! :)
