First All-Around Awkward Moment for 2009 (and I can't even relay any of the details)
Last night I went to this crazy theater festival thrown in my city. It's run by an old friend that I haven't spoken to in a while. Performances were awesome; the company, great. Until mingling about the clowns, the freaks, the glass-walking/glass-jumping lady, and spectators, I spot my friend. We spoke, had a laugh, met his wife...and then for some dumb reason I mention things that indirectly touch on the most taboo topic. In this bone-headed (albeit, totally innocent!) move, the energy surrounding the conversation immediately deflated. AND THEN, in an attempt to recover, I ask about certain people that just ended up insinuating an involvement on my part -- which would be completely untrue.
I also could tell that I depleted in more points when he heard that I wasn't writing anymore.
She did not look pleased with anything that came out of my mouth. I quickly backed away...
Furthermore, I have lost my voice today. If that is not karma sending me to the corner with a dunce cap, then I don't know what is.
