Awkward moments we can all relate to

I have been meaning to share my thoughts on awkward things that happen to every one of us. Everytime they happen I can't help but laugh to myself. I think its time to share some things that we can all relate to. (at least I can)

• Those moments when you and one other person are walking down a hall coming towards each other. You look down, then up, down then up until you are in passing and look at them to say "Hi". Heaven forbid we stare at them the entire way. That would just be weird. It would feel like we were about to have a match off out while we stared into each others soul. It's also one of those situations where, as human beings, we try to prove that they don't need to look down and we can endure that long awkward walk towards eachother with anybody else around. Sometimes we say something ridiculous to kill the silence. As we walk away you can't help but think, "I'm an idiot."
• The best is when you say to someone, "Hey, how are you? Good!" and the other person is saying it at the same time as you continue to walk passed one another. Wow, that wasn't rehearsed. I'm guilty of this so now I try to throw people off as we are both saying, "Hey, how are you?" I throw in "TERRIBLE" ha sucker. Their response of course is the typical "good" and then they are taken back by the fact that the rehearsed response we all do didn't play out the way they thought. 
• Bathrooms. How many times have we been in the bathroom stall with someone in the stall next to us and begin to strategize how we were going to go about not making it awkward. The times that you need to go, you wait and wait and wait until they flush the toilet and then do your thing as fast as you can. haha All you can do is pray its over by the time the flushing stops. If not you just giggle to yourself and the other person is immediately feeling awkward for you. Another scenario is if you were the only one in the bathroom feeling lucky you don't have to strategize and then that dreadful moment of someone walking in happens. You just have to sit and wait until they finish their business and leave. You know in your head that the other person knows exactly what you are doing. Have we not all been on both sides of these situations? 
• Singing in your car. You jam out by yourself and then see that someone driving next to you is laughing. You have two choices, to turn your head and keep driving or play into it and start jamming out even more as you point to them and smile. Sometimes just to avoid that situation at all I just put my phone up to my ear and sing. Genius. Now people will just think you are on the phone talking. I'm still waiting for the day when I pocked dial someone.
• That time when someone you know has something in their teeth. You feel awkward for them and begin to hope that someone else will tell them so you don't have to. One thing I have learned that works is to ask that person if you have anything in your teeth, they check, then ask the same question. Well folks, there is your green light to tell them. I still can't understand why as human beings we can't just yell across the table, "Hey, you have something in your teeth." Unfortunately, that can't happen because you worry everyone else will look at you and think you are a mean person. ha Interestingly enough, my husband Josh tells me that our family has a tendency to call people out. I never realized we did it as a family until he pointed it out and I started watching for those moments. We totally do! ha woops.
• That day when someone is talking to you and you need the conversation to end because of somewhere else you need to go. They keep talking and you try to be silent in hopes that they will catch on. Now it wouldn't be awkward if they did catch on but they don't. You present a fake smile and nod your head to give them a clue that its time to keep walking. 
• The moments at dinner with friends when you and one other person go to grab the last slice of bread at the same time. "Oh you take it, NO you, no seriously I don't even want it, Are you sure? yeah for sure it's all you."

Cancun

Josh and I just experienced paradise on earth. This summer Josh got a certain amount of sales that gave us an all paid trip to Cancun. We went with his work and had a group of 35 of us. I had never been to Cancun before so I was thrilled. The best part was that we stayed at an all inclusive resort. Now most people dream of money growing on trees. I on the other hand have always dreamed of eating whatever I want, whenever I want, and for FREE. I couldn't believe how nice it was to order everything and anything and just be able to walk away. Oddly enough I drank most of my calories. Virgin pina coladas, margaritas, and cokes.

We hung out at the beach everyday and played sand volleyball. 

Got alot of sun!

Sadi and I ate fish tacos with a pina colada just about everyday

Josh and his 2 other boyfriends. ;) These 3 are one of a kind. They group text each other everyday and go to lunch for hours. The day after we got back from the trip Josh said he was going to lunch with Trav. (middle) I said. "Its a good thing because its almost been a whole day since you've seen him."  Just a heads up for whoever marries Dan (on the left) you marry all of them. These boys are all hilarious. They say one word and they all start crying laughing. Im glad they all understand each other so well. ha cause most of the time Sadi and I just stare at each other clueless.

We enjoyed a private dinner by the beach with everyone he worked with. The dinner was a "surprise". I still don't know what it was but Josh told me not to ask. 

These girls are so much fun

Josh pulling a nice face while we drink away

We watched some football games and played cards. One night we played mafia with everyone which was way fun. It's Josh's favorite game. Everytime I narrate the game and someone points to kill Josh I have to say no because I feel so bad for him ha. I guess you get killed because you are to good at the game. Sorry babe

Every night the hotel put on a free show. The first night was a circus show. The second they came on stage I looked at Josh and said it was going to be a disaster. A couple more minutes into it and I completely changed my mind. I was way impressed. The tricks were amazing, the dancing however...eeek. The other show we went to was Michael Jackson. The star of the show looked exactly like him and was an unreal dancer. I was shocked how well he imitated him. 

Now for a story you will never believe. A group of us went to a club called Cocobongo. We were told it was something you had to do if you were in Cancun. His boss mentioned that people danced from the ceiling, kind of like Cirque du Soleil. It was 60 dollars a person which seemed like a complete rip off.  We walked in and it was packed. There was a huge stage and screen. They would play the best music with videos on the screen and everyone would dance. After about 4 songs they would then put on a show. They reenacted Beyonce, Lady gaga, Usher, Spider man, Guns n Roses, and many more. These people perfomed on stage and then people would bungee from the ceiling doing tricks. Its hard to describe unless you were there to see it for yourself. It really was like a Vegas show but maybe even better.

Everyone at the club had nice form fitting tube top dresses on. You can imagine how well we stood out. Modest is hottest. Sadi and I had fun dancing on the stage.

We ate out one night at a great taco joint. Roaming around the flea market was pretty fun too. I have to walk around with my head down because I feel so awkward saying no to these people.

Sad to have left this place but so happy to have been there with such great friends.
