Daily Dagger: Because sometimes uncomfortable moments are like daggers to the heart

So I went out this weekend, and I may have drank a bit too much.  I was at a bar, and they had a band playing there.  I thought one of the band members was cute, so I formulated a GENIUS plan to hit on him.  I was sitting across the bar at my table when the perfect "line" came into my head.  I got up from my seat and walked confidently up to the side of the stage.

I tapped the guy on the shoulder.  He turned around.  And I say...

 "You have something in your teeth."

He gave me a dirty look, turned around and resumed playing. 

Needless to say, I did not leave an impression on his heart.  What was I thinking?  Why did I think that basically insulting him would impress him?  I guess I may never know.

Daily Dagger (because sometimes awkward moments are like daggers to the heart):

This one has been brought to you by my little sister:

Mechanic: (putting the spare tire in my trunk and sees my old rock collection from elementary school- yes i still have it...) Are you some kind of geologist?
Me: No, I just still have it...uh.
Mechanic: My girlfriend is in geology. She is so funny.  She came out of the classroom saying "geology rocks!"  She said she came up with it.
Me: I'm sure I've heard that before...
Mechanic: She also said she came up with "Barack the Vote."
Me: She definitely did not come up with that.

Okay.  So I was on a very crowded elevator at the courthouse.  I squeezed myself into the corner.  A man and a woman were standing on opposite sides of me.  I have drawn up a diagram of our standing arrangement:

 

Now of course,  you have to imagine about twelve other people crammed in there with us.  But as you might be able to see, the awkwardness of the ride began before our conversation even started.  It's a bit hard to tell from the picture, but they were on my sides with their hands clasped in front of me.  They were not well infront of me, holding hands side by side.  Their hands were right in front of my crotch.  Had I move an inch forward, I'd have gotten to second base.  By the way, what's up with couples who can't even quit holding hands for ONE second?!  Even when they're about to make contact with strange crotch!?

Oh well.  So that is the set up.  Here is the very awkward conversation:

Lady:  You're cornered back there.

Me: Yeah.  That's okay though.  I always get in the corner.

Lady: Just don't start crying.

Me: Yeah...[ponders previous statement, mind is boggled by why I would start crying]...[a few seconds pass].....OH!  I get it.  Like Dirty Dancing!

Lady: [truly bewildered] HUH?!

Me: Like, nobody puts baby in a corner...oh wait, err no...that's not right.  I'm an idiot.

Lady: I'm an idiot too, but good movie...

By the end of the conversation my face was beet red.  On top of just sounding like a loon, I let the lady know that I had no idea what she was talking about with the crying.  In fact, I still don't.  Oh well. I guess I'll never know.

I got into a fight with a guy giving me a parking ticket.  I'll skip most of the argument, and get right into what made me laugh really hard. 

Me:  I’m allowed to park here!  I just asked another one of you guys the other day, and they said that I shouldn’t be getting tickets!

Him: Honey, there’s only ONE of ME!

Me:  You’re the only person giving out tickets?

Him:  NO, but there’s only one person who gives ‘em like I do!

Me:  You’re not a city ambassador?

Him:  NO!  I’m on a bike!  You see, I roam where I please.  I go all over- downtown, construction zones, everywhere.  I might not be back here for weeks.  It’s cuz, I’m different…I’m more like an outlaw.  No…not an outlaw.  I’m more like a… a…

Me: A maverick?

Him:  YES!  A MAVERICK!  I’m a maverick.  I ride around.  I do things different.  I’m a maverick!  Maybe you have been parking here, but I just haven’t caught you yet.

Me: Alright….

 

Turns out he took my ticket away.  I hope he never reads this…  I know I put the maverick words in his mouth, and obviously, it didn’t even make any sense.  I just thought it was great how at first he called himself an outlaw, then he went on with the maverick thing.  I think he really liked being called a maverick.  Maybe that’s why he took my ticket away.  I don’t know, but I’m willing to bet he’ll start using that whenever he explains how “different” he is to other angry parkees.  This guy was a real piece of work!  He takes his job really seriously and gives tickets to undeserving citizens…like me.

I was walking my dog the other day, and I saw an older man walking toward me.  The following ensued:

Man: Hi!  I'm Walt!  [sticks out a hand] You live in 1630?

Me: Yeah, that's me.  I'm Mary. [extends hand for a shake]

Man: I just moved in right there. [gestures behind himself] You got a husband too, right?

Me: Um…no.  I live with another girl, but her boyfriend was visiting last weekend.  Maybe you saw him.

Man: Maybe!  What's your dog's name?

Me: Tyra.

Man: OH GOSH, Tyra has got to meet my dog!  [breaks into a jog toward his apartment]

Me: Well actually, I just dropped by to let her out on my lunch break.  I've kind of got to get going.

Man: [turns as he jogs] Oh just wait one second.  It's not a real dog…[disappears into the apartment]

Me:  [thinks to self: Not a real dog?  Okay… I hope this is quick.]

Man: [reappears, clutching a life-sized statue of a black Pug under his arm]. This is Ebony!  [holds statue out to me]

Me: Ohhhh… [runs fingers against the hard body]  How nice.

Man: Tyra, meet Ebony! [plops the statue down hard on the ground about two inches from Tyra's face, and Tyra bolts in the opposite direction so fast that her leash jerks her to a halt] AHHAHA, Well see you around!

Me: Okay!  Nice meeting you! 

I think this is more hilarious and odd than awkard, but I thought I'd include it anyways.  The man was very nice.  I just thought it was really unique that he introduced me to his statue.  I walked away cracking up, wondering WTF just happened.

Becky took a trip in the elevator at her place of employment this morning.  During this time, she was joined by an unfamiliar woman (a woman who does not work in her building).  Prior to entering the elevator, Becky had seen said woman dashing across the major road (Glenwood Ave) in front of the building.  Here is what ensued:

 

Followed by mystery gal, Becky enters the elevator.  The doors close…

 

Becky: Hi!  How are you today?

Mystery Gal: Girl, I’m just trying to get to the bathroom!  [crosses legs and squats nervously]  Sometimes I don’t make it!

Becky: [chuckles awkwardly]

MG: I really should get myself to the doctor.  I can’t keep going on myself!

Becky: [looks around nervously as the elevator arrives at the 3^rd floor

 

and MG scurries off]

 

It seems that young Becky was a victim of TMI (too much information).  If you find yourself in a similar situation, please email me your story.  It could be tomorrow's [not so]Daily Dagger.

Why you shouldn't commit, according to some guy at the grocery store (he really said this):

Afta' 'bout four years ya go to work, kissin' on 'er neck all tendalizing.  Than you come home rub on 'er toes an' say, 'make me sum food!'  Then she sick of ya ass an' says, 'GET DA FUCK OUT!'

I feel that I had a notable conversation with a trucker (he told me he was a trucker) in a puffy vest at the courthouse.

 

Man:  I should’ve brung a sack snack!

Me: Huh?

Man: A sack snack.

Me:  Oh.  Because the elevator is taking so long?

Man:  Yeah.  What’re you doing here?

Me: I’m a courier.

Man:  For lawyers?

Me:  Yes.

Man:  I was gonna say that I thought you’re a paralegal.  Huh-Ha-Ha-Ha!

Me:  [chuckles] Nope.

Man: You from Wendell?

Me: No, I’m from Raleigh.  Are you from Wendell?

Man: Knightdale.

Me: Oh...

Man: Raleigh’s sure getting big! 

Me: Yeah, it is.

Man: So couriers must make a lot of money!

Me: Well, I don’t know…

 

Now there are a few notable things about the conversation. 

 

The first: It went on much longer than this blurb.  He talked to me after the elevator came and throughout the entire ride down- even when we were crammed in with about 12 other people.

 

The second: He thought I was a paralegal- not a lawyer.  I mean, I’m not a lawyer, but why did he have to underestimate me?  Being a paralegal is very respectable and great, but I could be a lawyer.  Did he just assume I’d be a paralegal since I was a woman?   Maybe he was sexist?

 

The third: Why would he think I was from Wendell?  I mean, why would he think I was from anywhere?  And he wasn't even from Wendell, so it wasn't like he was asking because he thought he'd seen me around town.  It’s like him saying, “Are you from Wilmington?” 

 

The fourth: Why would he ask about the amount of money I make? 

 

The fith: He said the phrase sack snack.

 

The man was very nice.  Don’t get me wrong.  It was just random.  Everybody at the courthouse was so chatty this morning.  I won’t even get into the conversation I had with this other lady.  I thought it was really weird.  I’m just hesitant to write about it, because I think she’s a judge or something. 

Daily Dagger #19 (Because uncomfortable moments can be like daggers to the heart)

I am waiting for the elevator at the courthouse.  I am on the 11^th floor.  The only other person waiting is a disheveled looking Hispanic man.  He�s wearing a denim jacket with jeans (a little Canadian tuxedo action).   I am standing far away from him, but I notice him walking toward me.  He gets RIGHT up behind me and is breathing REALLY heavily through his mouth.  I shoot him an evil death stare, and move to the other side of the waiting area.  Before I know it, he is making his way toward me again, and he is STILL all breathy!  I move again!  This keeps happening.  He�s following me and breathing on me.  I am practically pacing the vestibule to keep him away.  Finally, I can�t take anymore.

Me: YES?!

Him: [indecipherable muttering]

Me:  I�m sorry, what was that?

Him: Oh me!  Oh me!  I�m sorry.  I�m trying to get to 5.

Me: You need to get to the 5^th floor?

Him: Yeah�

Me: Alright...

Elevator comes.  I go in and I press 1, then move to the back corner.  He comes in behind me and just stands in the elevator looking confused.  The door closes, and he is still standing there bewildered.

Me:  You�re going to 5, right?

Him:  Yes.

Me: [presses 5]

Him: Oh, thanks�

He gets off at 5.

I went to Auntie Anne�s pretzel shop at the mall. I was wearing (what I thought) was a pretty cute/put-together outfit, and my hair was looking tame. Basically, I�m trying to say that I didn�t look like crap (because quite often, I do go in public looking rather homeless). So I�m at Auntie Anne�s, and the guy working there was probably in high school.

 Me: Hi, can I just get a Diet Coke please?

Cashier: What size?

Me: Ummm�medium, I guess.

Cashier: Ok. [turns to get cup, stops in his tracks and looks back at me] Wait, do you work here?

Me: I�m sorry?

Cashier: Do you work here?

Me: No�

Cashier: Ok, just making sure�

 Then he got my drink, and I paid.

I was waiting for an elevator at the court house, and there was a mother with her little boy (who was about 3 years old) standing beside me.  One elevator came, and it was packed full, so none of us could fit.

Little Boy: Those are BIGGGG people, Mom!

Me: [looks down and chuckles to self]

Mother: [shoots me evil death stare]

Me: [laughs audibly to mother, so she would know that I was laughing because I thought her kid was cute and saying funny things]

Mother: [jerks Little Boy away from me by the arm] That is not funny!  It ain�t nice!

Me: [looks around nervously]

Mother: DO YOU HEAR ME, BOY?!?!

Then an elevator comes, and everybody crams in. Then I�m like five inches away from the lady�s face.  Typical!

Daily Dagger #16: Because uncomfortable moments can be like daggers to the heart!

I found this more humorous than awkward, but I thought it could count anyways.  I was at the gas station buying a bottle of water with my debit card.  The woman at the register, Katrina, was a petite white woman with a strong voice.  Her hair was done up and she wore gold necklaces.  She'd been showcasing her loud, raspy voice by hollering "TOMMMYYY" before it was my turn to pay.  So anyways, she was very matter-of-fact, talkative and generally just seemed like a real firecracker of a woman.  This might not be funny unless you could see the way she actually said it, but hopefully the intro gave you some sort of idea of how it may have played out.

Me: [slides debit card] Did that go through?
Katrina: NO!  It said ACCESS DENIED- give up card so Katrina can go shopping!
Me: [looks up confused, then get it and laughs really hard]

Set-up: I went to the McDonalds drive-through with my sister Katie.  She was driving and I was in the passenger seat.  I wanted ice cream, and she didn't want anything.

Drive-Through Voice: Welcome to McDonalds!  What can I get for you?
Katie: One hot-fudge sundae- no nuts, please.
Drive-Through Voice: That will be $1.08.  Please drive around.
[we drive to the window where we are greeted by a young man working the cash register]
Cashier: That'll be $1.08.  [grabs money from Katie and starts to hand us the sundae, but stops].  Why you want no nuts?!
Katie: It's for her. [points to me]
Cashier: You ain't want no nuts?
Me: I'm allergic.
Cashier: [hands over the ice cream] So you can't handle the nutttsssss? [eyebrows dance wildly]
Katie: Uhhhhhh?!?  [drives off quickly]

I spent last week at the beach with my entire family: Mom, Dad, brothers and their children. My sister-in-law and I were downstairs watching The Bachelorette with my 13 year old niece.

A lovely commercial for KY Jelly comes on during the break. As it nears the end of the commercial, my niece announces, "I saw some of that in Papa's bathroom!"

Of course, my sister-in-law and I bust out laughing as my niece looks at us very confused.

Amy told me this story, and it is so funny that I�m submitting it on her behalf. So, forgive me if I get any details wrong, Amy. But to clarify, I am writing this as if I am Amy.

This is weird, but I guess there is a pirate convention in New Orleans every year.  For that week or whatever, there are people dressed up as pirates all around town. So one night after work, some of my coworkers and I went to have a drink at a bar where my friend, Steve, works. Well, we were all waiting at the bar, and Steve wasn�t coming out so I decided to go back into the kitchen and get him. I walk in and there Steve is with a large group of pirates. They are setting up a group photo (in which Steve is included). Here is what happened: 

Steve: AMYYY, GET IN THE PICTURE!

Me: Uh�Okay, why not?! [walks to stand behind the pirates for the photo]

Steve: [whispering] Oh my gosh, when they count to three, lets squirt ketchup all over the pirates! [grabs two ketchup bottles and hands one to me]

Me: Alright I guess�

Photographer: 1-2-3!!!

[My arms shoot up with the ketchup and I flail around like a madman dousing everybody around me. STEVE smiles and poses for the picture�NOT squirting the ketchup. Then the picture has been taken, and I, alone, have splattered ketchup all over pirates who I�ve never met. I get really quiet and uncomfortable, but then all the pirates disperse and NOBODY mentions the ketchup.]

Me: Okkkk, time for a beer!

SO, my head chef's are married.  The woman, we will call her "Carrie," is a real bitty.  Everyone hates her.  Carrie's husband, we will call him "Jim," is really awesome.  So yesterday I was supposed to make three cakes for the general manager's birthday. I was going insane from all the work.  So, after making the first cake, I took my [well deserved and needed] hour long break. 

When I came back, I was of course in trouble. Carrie started yelling, "YOU DIDN'T MAKE THE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING FOR THE SECOND CAKE!"  She had made it, and (chuckle) it didn't work. To make a long story short, she kept walking by and muttering things like, "Well Amy just can't handle it. She just cracks after one cake."

All of a sudden, I turned around and said "CARRIE, I DIDN'T CRACK! YOU ALWAYS TAKE OVER AND WANT TO DO THINGS YOURSELF, SO I JUST LET YOU!'"

WELL, then it just got really uncomfortable, and I guess she she started feeling bad about it.  She kept trying to apologize and make me like her again (which could never happen). 

So THEN her husband, Jim, comes up and says really loud,  "WHATS GOING ON OVER HERE? CARRIE, ARE YOU BEING A TOTAL BITCH AGAIN?" 

And I was just like, "ugh ... heh hehe... "

Then Jim looks at me and says, " YEAH AMY, THATS WHAT I HAVE TO DEAL WITH EVERY SINGLE DAY OF MY LIFE!"

Then, Carrie slams down her knife and storms off, just leaving me standing there, with everyone in the kitchen looking at me. 

Then, in the middle of the silence, I blurted out, "It's about time something good happened around here!"

A few laughed... a few didn't know what to do.. needless to say, it was the kind of total awkwardness that gives you the "I think I wanna go home now" feeling. SALUD!

I was about to cross the street at a crowded crosswalk on NCSU�s campus. A really cute guy on a motorcycle was coming toward me. I thought he was going to stop, but he kept accelerating as I made my way into the street. He was about to ram me when I noticed. �OH MY GOD I�M GOING TO DIE,� I screamed like a maniac as I ran back to the sidewalk. Everybody stopped and stared at me. Crickets chirped!

I was delivering a package, and noticed that the secretary had a very colorful wrist-pad at her computer.  A wrist-pad is one of those gel things that you lay in front of the keypad so your wrists can rest (hence the clever name) and not get Carpel Tunnel or whatever.  I wanted to comment on it, but in the heat of the moment, the word wrist pad escaped me.  The following ensued:

Me: Hello!  I have a package for Joe Smith.
Secretary:  Ok, I can sign for that.  [begins to sign]
Me: [looks around] Oh wow, that's a neat little thing over there. 
Secretary: [looks toward computer] What thing?
Me: [points toward brightly colored, patterned wrist-pad] That thing.  I can't think of what it's called.  I've never seen one all cute like that.  Gosh, what is it called?
Secretary: [clearly confused] Ummm....a workspace?
Me: Ha-ha!  No!  That wrist thing.
Secretary: Oh! Ha-ha!  I was about to say...

Uncomfortable, awkward moments are the spice of life (to me at least).  I live for the silences that last too long, the painful rambling when just the wrong thing slips out, and the corny "cringers" people throw at you everyday.  OH-  and we can't forget the overheard everyday conversations that leave you walking away with your head shaking as you say to yourself this is what people talk about� So I plan to feature a snippet of dialogue everyday- a moment frozen in time if you will.  Enjoy!

Me: Hello!  How are you?

Overweight receptionist wearing a hot pink blazer:  Oh you know, just another day in the life of a supermodel- photo-shoots, clubbing, the usual.

Me: Um�Alright.  Well, I have a delivery�.
