it's time to share with the world the most embarrasing thing that has ever happened to me. it happened on friday night. i'm still blushing.

ok, so i was at a friend's party, at the fringe wine bar (a b&d club, hired out for the night for a private party but nevertheless filled with some very interesting red leather contraptions). it was a fairly mad party with lots of treats around and everyone was pretty mashed. it was a really, really funny night. then...

i went into the bathroom with my best mate. as you do. we were talking between the cubicle walls. as you do. i was telling her that i'd just been talking to a fucking hot guy. i told her how i'd been looking at him all night. how i thought he was sooooo good-looking, soooo fucking hot. i must have repeated the words "fucking hot" at least half a dozen times, curse my limited vocabulary. she told me he had a fiance. a fiance that looked a lot like her, funnily enough, and people had been mistaking her for the fiance all night. we mentioned the fiance by name, several times. i, again, rambled on about how hot i thought the guy was. by this time we were out of the loos, by the hand basins. i was still going on about how hot this guy was.

then the third toilet door opened.

and, of course, the fiance that looked like my friend walked out. looked at my friend, who looks just like her. then looked at me, obviously the one that was going on and on and on about how hot her fiance was.

and then the fucking hot guy walked out behind her.

they ran past us and collapsed into fits of hysterical laughter outside. my jaw hit the floor. i was absolutely mortified. i was so mashed i wasn't even sure it had actually happened. i still can't quite believe it actually happened.

but it did. i'm still completely embarrased to think about it. i saw them after i peeled myself off the floor and managed to stagger back into the club. we shook hands. i think i was bright red for about an hour.

fucking hell.

extreme embarrasment aside, it was pretty funny. everyone at the party knew within minutes... witness the birth of an urban legend. i really hope he's still smiling about it, because it is going to take me a really, really long time to live this one down...
