That happened to me when I was little:
I walked up to a lady once and asked, "Where did you get that bag?" because I thought it was my mom!! (She had been looking the other way.) Then she started telling me about where she got it -- I was so embarrassed!!!

that once happened to me, except I thought I was hugging my dad. I was really little and we were at some party. I was standing with my dad who was talking with some friends. Since I was so little and short, I wasn't really looking at who I was standing next to. I was really shy so I hugged my dad's leg and looked down. I heard laughing so I looked up. Oh my goodness, it was not my dad, it was his friend (even worse)!!!!! Nobody remembers that (phew) and I have never ever mentioned it...ever. I don't even remember which friend it was...(well, I do have an idea)

This Thanksgiving my dad laughed and wine came out his nose.

No, I've never actually hugged a stranger, but I have followed one around half the grocery store because I wasn't paying attention. (My mom and the stranger were both wearing jeans that day.)

I've done something like that.  I don't think parents realize how much it scares kids to be with strangers.  I also used to think that playing hide and seek in stores was fun (I was like, 2).  Then my mom got me a leash.  Did anyone else have a kid leash?

:)D)D)D) He must have been laughing pretty hard!  When I was little, I was at my "friend's" house (I think it was a holiday, maybe even Christmas; yes, I did go to her house on Christmas.) and her dad was opening the sparkling cider.  Little did he know that my "friend's" little sister had shaken it. :):):) The cork shot off like a rocket, and there's still a stain on the ceiling to prove it. :):):):) Another time, we were at her house, and we were drinking hot chocolate.  I said something that made her laugh (when she laughs, she laughs hard!), and the hot chocolate came out her nose. :)D)D)D)D) And it landed in her little sister's hot chocolate!!!!!!!! :):) Now, we don't let her drink hot chocolate anymore.... :):):)  Sigh, those were the good old days..... :(:(

I dropped my retainer in the dirt in Honduras once... I had to hurry up and get it before the enormous carpenter ants carried it off.

I was chewing gum (yes, not quite as disgusting) and I bent over to pet my cousin's poodle, and my gum fell out of my mouth, and onto the dog (I don't know why I was chewing with my mouth open....).  I quickly grabbed it and hid it in my hand.  It was another half-hour or so, before I found the trash can....

Bit through my cheek after getting a filling. Ickick. 'Tweren't my fault - they had to give me three shots of Novocain before I was numb enough to work on the tooth. I'd had an improperly placed cap, and it was rotting away underneath until -- oops -- off it popped, leaving the pulp exposed. Felt like someone was shoving a sharp icicle into my tooth every time I took a breath. I nearly had to get a root canal -- this was two years ago. Anyway, I bit through my cheek. Didn't hurt at all, thanks to the THREE SHOTS plus the Ibuprofen the dear nurse shoved down my throat. Who needs Ibuprofen?

But it was kind of gross to look at.

Oh!  That's awful!!!!!!!  Poor you!!!  At least it didn't hurt! :D

Because I have Crohn's, I can't take Ibuprofen!  Or aspirin!  Just Tylenol...
