CHANGING ROOM

Those of you who know me are quite aware that I am a nut. Those of you who don’t know me may not be so aware of this fact, but it is true. My girlfriend Ali says that I am a “fruitloop” and it is exactly this reason why people love me. Call it what you will, but me and awkward, random situations go together like peanut butter and marshmellow fluff. (I don’t like jelly).. go with me.

So in another classic moment, I recently made an ass out of myself at work…

It all started innocently enough. I was sitting at my desk when my boss who was in from out of town came down to our cubicle corner during a break from his meetings. My coworker immediately asked him if he had “solved the big mystery?”, to which I of course asked, “What mystery?”. In some regards I am glad that I did, in others- I really wish I hadn’t.

They both instantly look at me with surprise, “you don’t know?!” and my bossman chuckles.. “Oh my God, you have to see this.”
He proceeds to his office, and like the good little work drone I am, I follow right behind. Before I even have one foot in the door, he walks out, flings his arm up, and there dangling in my face is a very pretty black and white and hot pink …. BRA.

It just so happens that it is MY Black and white and hot pink bra. Without delay, I snatch the bra out of his hands and run back to my desk and shove it in my backpack. All I could think was “I like that bra!”. The look of shock on his face was priceless, as was the look on mine, I’m sure. “Wait, its yours? What the heck was it doing on my desk?” he asks as I slink into my chair, covering my face.

Right on cue my other boss walks out of his office and says, “So, you’ve solved it? It’s HERS?”…

Apparently there has been an ongoing debate for the last 3 DAYS about said bra. Why is it in the bossman’s office? Who put it there? What does it all mean? Poor bossman thought maybe it was someone telling him he was getting fat and need a bro.

Nope- it was just that I was too lazy to walk to the women’s restroom to change my clothes for the night, so I decided to change in my bosses office.

I am currently a MORTIFIED fruitloop.
