Me and my big mouth. This is my latest and one of my greatest. Picture me in an elevator full of women, with a young man standing in the corner. He said to everyone in the elevator, “Excuse me, have any of you ladies caught a buzz?” There was TOTAL silence. No one spoke! So I finally said as clear as a bell, “Ex-CUSE ME!?!?” (with a bit of attitude and head tilt, no less!) A little more silence, and then very calmly, my co-worker said, “Oh yes, you can catch a bus just in front of the building.” I was MORTIFIED. Catch a BUS??!!! No, I am SURE he said catch a buzz. And before he said it, he was smirking and had a very strange look in his eye. As he left the elevator, I smelled quite a bit of alcohol on him. (Do you see me trying to justify myself??) I am still attempting to get my foot out of my mouth… maybe I can work on it from the bus!
