We were expecting a delivery this morning and I knew the delivery guy was going to ring me when he was almost here. I hadn't had a phone call so I went for a quick shower. Mum's flat is on the ground floor and for some reason (known only to the architect!) the bathroom is next to the front door, as it's hot just now I had the bathroom window open. Anyhoo, I'd had my shower and was standing in the bathroom totally starkers and dripping wet reaching for a towel when the delivery guy popped his head through the bathroom window and said 'hello, I've got a parcel for you' All I could do was stammer 'I've just got out of the shower'! while trying to cover myself up. I then had to throw some clothes on and go answer the door. We had an extremely awkward conversation and he left! I'm sure I should be livid about it or something but after the initial embarrassment I've got over it. This afternoon I had coffee with an old friend, she asked me about my Dad and I burst in to tears. In a crowded cafe! I actually sobbed for a few minutes before I could get myself together. All in all I've had a smashing day I don't suppose anyone else has something embarrassing they'd like to share??

Oh my goodness, you really have had a smashing day! Had to smile about the delivery guy though, bet he didn't expect to see that when he popped his head through the window......glad you got over it after the embarrassment though. Hope you have a much better evening.

Oh my that is not a fun way to know your package arrived. I don't know what I would have done. The most embarrassing thing for me was when I was 15 and I was at a camp with my bff we had met these cute guys and were hanging out with them most of the time. We went swimming in the lake and to my horror the one guy I liked tells me about a lovely goober hanging down on my lip..really..OMG..I felt so horribly stupid, bad enough to be an awkward teen but in front of a cute guy no less..ugh! And of course there was the lovely time I had eating pizza with a bunch of people with braces on..need to say someone cracked a joke and I smiled with a nice huge grin and again, another cute guy tells me I have food stuck all in my braces..sigh..funny he later became my boyfriend but at time I think I would rather have climbed under a rock and died. I guess you just got roll with the punches.

I had a similar shower experience once, and I convinced myself that he didn't see anything.

That's odd to have a shower by the front door!

I also had a shower experience. I was renting a studio apartment and the bathroom was right next to the door. I was in the shower when I heard the door opening...(by the way, the door was one that locks automatically, so not just anyone could come in).
It was the landlord!! He didn't even knock first to see if I was home. Boy was I pissed! Luckily, he did not see anything, I just screamed for him to get out! After that, I used the chain.

if it will make you feel better, this is the embarrassing moment I had a couple days ago: our dog steals underwear out of the hamper occasionally. when folding laundry I culled some clean pairs from my drawer that had been chewed on, and threw them away. later I was about to wax some refinished furniture in our garage, and needed a soft cotton cloth. Bingo, i'll use those soft cotton panties, since I didn't have anything else to fit the bill. They worked great. The next day, with our permission, our garage repairman comes over while we're out to install a part he had ordered to fix the door. when I come home later, I open the garage door and there, where i had been waxing and where was also right in the path he would've walked, directly next to where he would put a ladder to install the part, is a pair of crumpled, dirty-looking undies. I was horrified. I had forgotten to toss those, but the wax and furniture was put away, so it wasn't obvious that they had been used for something like that. just a random pair of used panties laying on the garage floor. he probably thinks we're disgusting people now.

When my kids were little I heard the doorbell and then my kids opening the door and talking as I was just shutting off the shower... I had to grab a towel and run to the door, dripping, sopping wet because my kids had opened the door to god knows who.
You can bet that afternoon I had locks installed at the tops of the doors where they couldn't reach!

@bumpsy you made his day and nope he didn't need eye bleach. My embarrassing moment was when I came down stairs in a lovely lacy matching underwear set and high heels to surprise hubby, only to find FIL stood in the kitchen, he'd let himself in through the back door we now have a padlocked side gate! By the time I'd recovered the 'moment' had definitely passed!

I remember my sister being mortified because she was examining her healing episiotomy with a hand mirror in her bedroom, when the windowcleaner's face appeared at the window. She had to get her husband to pay him from then on because she couldn't face him.

Several years ago, we were having a load of gravel delivered. He was supposed to come before 4 and as of 6 he still hadn't come. It was a Friday right before the 4th of July holiday weekend so I just assumed he was going to come the next working day. I changed out of my "real" clothes into my "play" clothes which means my bra comes off. I'm sitting on the couch when I hear this loud truck pulling up. I look out and sure enough it's the gravel guy. I run into my bedroom to throw on some decent clothes and a bra. My DS who has autism and was around 7 or 8 at the time was outside playing. He came to the door and yelled, "Mom...some guy is here." This is where I made my mistake. I yelled to him, "I'll be out there as soon as I find my bra." Not sure what I was thinking in saying that. Anyway, the next thing I hear is DS telling gravel guy, "She'll be out as soon as she finds her bra and puts it on." I was mortified and so freaked out I couldn't find my bra anywhere. So I threw a jacket on and went out to meet the guy. He was grinning when I came out. And even asked me if I was cold in the 100 degree July weather.

Oh, @bumpsy that is just too funny. I think about the one delivery guy that comes to here (DH's shop in back) everyday, he is so shy he would have fallen to the ground dead.
The other delivery guy would make sure that he told every customer that day and probably for several days just to make sure he didn't miss anyone.
The worst that ever happened to me was wearing mismatched shoes to the hardware store.

I can hear him now, "Remember the time I popped my head in this woman's window and she was stark naked!!!!"
