Badly-Timed Reunions

Once upon a time, long, long ago... I was running an errand with my sister (and actually by long ago I mean a few years, maybe), picking up a few supplies. While at the store, my sister and I got separated for a moment, and I ran into (almost literally) an old classmate (who was working there) whom I hadn't seen in at least a few years and may or may not have had a crush on in the past... and who may or may not have grown a lot in those few years... in a cute and awesome way... Anyhow - my point! - I was shocked. Such moments should NOT be thrust upon you out of the blue! Did I also mention that it was a really humid day? My hair + humidity = #&%(@* . If that doesn't give you a nice picture, please also remember that this was supposed to be a quick errand so I was wearing the comfies that are barely fit for the public eye, and therefore not the most flattering...
So, the meeting kind of went like this:
Guy: "Hey! How's it going!"
Me: *turning red* "uhh, great!" *face is burning* uhhhh *gives up and runs away*
- and into my sister in the next aisle... who then had to comment on the fact that I was extremely red. And still likes to point it out once in a while to this day... "Ooh we're going to that store - what if you run into him again?" Sisters are evil creatures.
So, Moral of the Story - always expect the unexpected! Now I know why some girls won't leave the house without perfect hair and make-up! Oh, and if you've already embarrassed yourself that much - try to say more than "uhh" before running away! Yup, lesson learned!... Maybe...
