Sharing My Embarrassment


Gleno the Unraedy: So, now that we've discussed the most chaotic evil thing we’ve ever done, what was the most embarrassing thing you’ve ever done in your life? Let me tell you mine.

Math Guy One: What?

Gleno the Unraedy: Back at Randolph High, I remember as a junior all the seniors running around, swapping yearbooks, and signing them for each other.

Gleno the Unraedy: Come my senior year, we got our yearbooks. A girl I knew somewhat was the first to hand me her yearbook and ask me to sign it. I handed her mine, she handed me hers.

Gleno the Unraedy: She signed mine.

Gleno the Unraedy: I signed hers on the picture, like she had done.

Gleno the Unraedy: As I'm doing it, I'm saying to myself, "How is it that multiple people can sign all sign each others? There isn't enough room."

Gleno the Unraedy: She hands me back mine.

Gleno the Unraedy: I look down at it and realize that she signed her name over her own picture.

Gleno the Unraedy: I closed hers and handed it to her. Smiled, and made sure I never saw her again.

Gleno the Unraedy: I blush to this day thinking about it.

Gleno the Unraedy: I had signed my name over her picture.

Math Guy One: That's one of the funniest things I have heard in a looooong time.

Gleno the Unraedy: That action makes me one of the four stupidest people alive.

Math Guy One: I am on a conference call that I am heavily involved in. Thank heavens for MUTE.

Gleno the Unraedy: If God gave me one mulligan to use on the one thing regret most in my life, it would be that.

Math Guy One: At least you smelled that something strange was going on.

Gleno the Unraedy: I had never signed a yearbook before. No one told me and I was too stupid to have thought it through.

Gleno the Unraedy: Every 8 years or so, she has call to pull out her yearbook… Maybe she wanted to remember a teacher's name… maybe her kids wanted to see what she looked like....

Gleno the Unraedy: "Mommy, who wrote on your face?"

Gleno the Unraedy: And there is my name.

Gleno the Unraedy: In blue, indelible ink.

Gleno the Unraedy: Immortalizing my own stupidity for time and eternity.

Gleno the Unraedy: She will never forget who did it to her.

Gleno the Unraedy: She will never forget the guy's name.

Gleno the Unraedy: I fully expect that one day I will wake up one night with an erie feeling and see her standing over my bed with a gun.

Math Guy One: That is a wonderful story. I want to search my memory bank for a comparable story. I will get back to you with what I hope will be a gem.

Math Guy One: People around me probably think I am crying.

Math Guy One: I need to pay attention to this call. I cannot stop laughing.

Math Guy One: You have ruined my career....again.

Gleno the Unraedy: I'm glad to have been of service.

Math Guy One: I remember you talking me into going to the beach one day. The next day I lost my job.

Math Guy One: That was another great help you have been.

Gleno the Unraedy: Hey, I couldn't have predicted that!

Math Guy One: You are not evil, but you facilitate the potential for evil to happen to others. It's a gift.

Gleno the Unraedy: I only use my powers of evil for good.

Gleno the Unraedy: Well, sort of.

Math Guy One: Not everyone can do this without actually being guilty of anything.

I always knew there was something wrong with you. Deeply, troublesomely wrong.

Let's see. Randolph High School, class of 1988 would it be? If I can guess her name, will you own up to it? If I can find her, will you contact her, and apologize?

NO! I'll die before I ever talk to her!
