help me cope...tell me something really stupid you did today

i just did something really stupid. i misinterpreted something someone said and sorta chewed him out (by email). two minutes later i realized what he wrote was a typo and he didn't mean any harm, so now i feel like a total arse.

little stupid stuff like this really rips me apart, and i'm afraid i'll be dwelling on it (it's already 2am) until i can get my mind off it.

i figure it might help if you guys tell me about stupid misunderstandings you've had and how you dealt with it.

btw yes i immediately sent another email saying "ignore my last email" and explaining myself... but i feel like it's too late. it's already out there

oh boy do i relate! i do stupid stuff almost everyday, and i too dwell on it to the point that i know it's unhealthy for me.

so today, i almost walked off the job but instead said to my boss that the way i'm being treated is like being f***ed in the *ss. (i can't believe i said that outloud to my boss rather than saying some a bit less vulgar

)

i said hi to a visitor who was a former patient (i work at a drug detox) but since the visitor is a nurse and wearing the same color of scrubs our patients do, i tho't she relapsed and was back for treatment. so i said i was glad she chose to come back rather than stay in the addiction. then she said, "oh no! i'm just here visiting somebody."

owwch now that's what i call an oopsy daisy

i hope you don't mind that i sorta laughed when i read that.
i'm sure it sucked to be there. but from an outside perspective it's pretty funny

i guess that's what i hope will happen with me... eventually i'll be able to laugh... maybe. wouldn't it be great if life was like a sitcom and there's a studio audience who laughs at your mistakes and everything's just silly.

i once got into an argument with a roommate about wasting money on unnecessary supplies like 85 rolls of toilet paper. we were in a public place and i just remember yelling really loud, "I DON'T NEED TOILET PAPER, ASSHOLE!"

the whole room went dead silent

talk about stupid things to say

but at least i can laugh about it now
it only took 3 years to get over the embarassment

Bahaha once I fell asleep standing up when I was working !
That's not saying something silly but it was kinda funny.

I can't remember anything stupid I've done today, but I do know that I've said some really stupid stuff this past week. I hope I remember tomorrow (just remember.... sooner or later, you'll look back and laugh. sooner or later)

I think yesterday it was that I went bowling and I had forgotten to put on bowling shoes, so when I went up to throw the ball, I kind of skidded on the floor and fell on my face

A bunch of people in the bowling alley just sort of looked at me for a moment, then went back to what they were doing. I was so embarassed, but I busted out laughing because I know how stupid I looked.

I have a big bruise on my knee now, but it was funny so it's ok.

I slept instead of going to church, which was stupid, because I needed some church time.

one time one of my other employees was harassing me to hurry up and close so I basically listed ways he could cut corners, he got an odd look and said "We're not supposed to do that" which I found SO irritating since he had just harassed me for hours on how can we make close fast, so typical upset me fashion I said "I DON'T GIVE A F***!" That is when my manager, who was behind me for at least long enough to hear the list of ways to cheat on a close asked me if I wouldn't mind talking to him in the office.

omg even still thinking of that makes me horrified lol.
but its mostly all good now.

not today ...but a week or so back - I got into a 'pretend fight' with a friend of mine in a really long line for the restroom at starbucks- she kept saying I was racist because I wouldn't let her use the toilet first. - It was kind of embarrassing because nobody knew that we already knew eachother and I got some really nasty looks even when I kept saying, rather loudly to her "Don't you dare turn this into a thing about skin colour or call me racist! " ... that actually made it worse - people just shook their heads and looked pityfully at me

okay, I was waitressing over the lunch shift at a hotel this week and a guest ordered the rice pudding. So what did I take out for him? A lemon sponge

... but he didn't even notice! And said it was lovely!
