I accidentally cost my friend over ten bucks mobile credit yesterday. We were discussing the magic system in one of my stories, and we got a bit involved, and when she looked at her phone, she was surprised to see that we had been talking for more than a hour.
Anyone else ever screwed up in an embarassing situation like that?
(Incidentally, it was her sisters phone. She just had to buy the new credit. Oops indeed.)

It's embarassing because while we were talking, her family served up dinner. Probably shoulda wrote that earlier. I made her miss out on dinner, and cost her ten dollars she literally doesn't have, all because I was trying to work out the details of pyrokinesis and ho it correlates with teekinesis. Woops.
How'd you get home? o.O

well we missed the last train home so we had to wait for the first one the next morning.... it was in a pretty small town where the train station closes after 2 am so we had to get out -_-
whats teekinesis?? or is it a typo of telekinesis?

It's really really late and I wanna sleep so I'll just copypaste. Rika being my most recent IRC nick. It wasn't really an oops but I'm incredibly relieved it wasn't me on the proverbally-hot seat
[07:22:40] did I tell you about what happened when someone caught the garter and someone the bouquet? [07:22:46] nope [07:23:22] I think I texted someone it, it might've been sion, I might've been drunk by that point [07:26:05] my aunt pushed me towards the "Alright, doesn't matter what situation you're in, ladies, if you don't got a ring on your finger, come on over here on the floor" pile (neither of us really wanted the bouquet but whatever, tradition, and the DJ pointed at us even too), and shockingly, the lady one or two people to my left actually caught the flung bouquet. I flomped down in a chair relieved next to my aunt and watched the proceeding chaos [07:26:19] (it wasn't very chaotic really but it would have made good chaos) [07:26:56] it was good imagined chaos [07:27:02] after this it was the "ditto ditto guys" catching the flung-backwards /garter/. [07:27:41] as in, the tradition of groom-removes-bride's garter-during-the-reception-garter. This was also traditional and not at all surprising [07:28:09] it landed at my second-cousin brian (~14 or so I think?)'s feet [07:28:49] And the DJ got both he and the girl who'd caught the bouquet in the middle of the re-emptied dance floor, [07:29:12] sat the latter down in the chair that the bride had had that very garter removed on [07:29:23] and said "Every inch over the knee, five years of happiness!" [07:30:13] oh no way [07:30:18] oh yes way. [07:31:16] The shocked-dumb expression on my face didn't change at all except even more shocked-dumb as the garter went up her leg, over her knee, and then continued, unimpeded, up her leg [07:31:55] hahaha [07:31:57] it ended up /under her dress/ more than halfway up from her knee. [07:32:08] how'd she react? [07:32:40] um. She seemed comparatively composed, if stunned, since she was helping put it up there. [07:32:59] oh, alright [07:33:09] ha, that's funny

...and also, perhaps not totally an 'embarrasing oopsie', more like...well, I don't know actually, at the ETS I managed to send a friend to hospital for one night, because I was running over a fence and she was going under...then my boot hit her in the head close to her left eye, and she had a headache and slightly blurred vision on that eye afterwards and was sent to the hospital for checkup and stayed the night. I was totally shocked that I had hurt her, and SHE kept reassuring ME that she was alright...also, she made a joke just shortly after it happened, so that calmed me down at least slightly. I have no sense of calm^^
wow yea i think id be shocked as well if i had accidentally kicked a friend like that(somehow im usually the one that gets kicked, i have a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time =P ), but your both alright now?

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. I was listening to my ex-lover's day just moments ago after she got home at 5:30 and asked if she had an OK day. She said she had a KY day and I'm thinking "//// whoa! You're telling me this straight out?" Then she goes on to talk about the friends she saw and I get curious and ask which one she had the KY day with. Only after she makes shiftyeyes do I realize. KY is her postal code. She lives in KENTUCKY AND OK IS OKLAHOMA WHERE SHE LIVED FOR A COUPLE YEARS. Ohmagawd. I was laughing so hard when I realized, now I'm just embarrassed!!! Oopsie indeed.

It's Kentucky's postal code. And a sexual lubricant brand.

I kinda wondered if I would get two owies yesterday, because on monday I hurt myself two times (managing to sqeeze part of my hand both times) and on tuesday I first managed to cut myself in the finger with a saw like slightly deep and got this white owwie stuff in it, and then I managed to get curry paste in my eye...

Suz wow you need to carry a first aid kit around at all times maybe! Or a cute EMT girl. You OK?

Yeaaah... I've learned to wash my hands thoroughly after tearing up cayennes when cooking. Really, we don't need to light our eyes on fire.

I couldn't just 'end' my day, I had friends over (for the whole week) and I had Tensing that day, to which I dragged one of those guests (she was willing to come, of course) =)

Church choir with more than just singing, ie. playing games, doing drama and dancing. We also have festivals and stuff, and this summer had the European Tensing Festival, although some people were from countries outside Europe as well, including some from the US. =)
I'm sure I explained this stuff on here before somewhere^^;
Oh...you may have! I just didn't think to look it up. That still sounds like a bitch to go through with curryburn eye and a saw cut!! *hugs*

Nah, I'd gotten rid of the last curryburn in the eye and the sawcut really only matters when you get something into it...which is when it hurts. And I guess it heals slightly slower too because of all the crap I get into it, I mean what with working with metals and fire all day...you get silver dust and all sorts of bad stuff in your cutss...which is why one has band-aids, I guess^^;
You don't usually bandage your cuts and live amidst fire and steel? Suz you're a far more badass sort than I'd expected. In a good way.

Yay :D I've always (as far back as I remember) been somewhat disinclined towards bandaging cuts and stuff, because it often makes them heal slower, and I've just grown to disliking band-aids and stuff^^
I'd think the silver dust irritating the rebuilt cells would delay the recovery more than some ointment and a bandaid, lol. *still impressed*

hmm its true that cuts heal faster if they arent covered.. i do think its better to cover em when metal dust can get into them =S that could infect really bad.... although if i remember correctly silver has a disinfecting property(still isnt good to get into wounds)
somehow a saw cut seems nastier than a knife cut ... but i dunno, never cut myself with a saw

Um, a lot of embarrassing things have happened since high school started, such is the life of an awkward teen. I'll tell you about them when I remember them, though I have electronics for first hour on B-Days (One day is a, next B) Which is awesome and unfortunate becuase my ADD meds kick in about that time and make my hands realllllly shaky. I'm measuring my success in that class by the amount of burns I receive. Also, a few tufts of my hair are a little bit shorter and crispier then the other tufts on my head. Stupid soldering iron, I have metals in a couple months, and I know I'm going to enjoy it, I had dreams of blacksmitheriy when I was little, but I'm afraid of the results. *Shudder*

Lady: Yeah, probably. I still hate band-aids though, and they also tend to get in the way of everything. .......aaaaand if I were to use a band-aid every time I hurt myself and pay for them all, I would be broke in a swish^^; ....also I tend to be pretty stubborn about some things, and nevaah change my opinion x3
Gapps: I THINK silver has a disinfecting property yes (THAT is not what we learn about the metals in school), but as you said, it is probably not the best thing to get in your wounds. I mostly just use the brush to dust it all off, because we collect the dust (it tends to pile up, and it IS worth some money) and then rinse the cut and dry it.
Wolfie: That measuring success by amount of wounds recieved is something I may use to evaluate my school day or weeks xD Also, I've always wanted to try blacksmithing, it is just SO cool :D I think you're gonna do great though, so don't worry =)
ooh soldering iron burns ^^ know all about those ... never burned my hair with one though... oh you must have long hair then ^^ =O i also wanna try stuff like blacksmithing, dont be afraid of the results just try to enjoy it.
ooh and yea silver is a disinfectant looked it up to be sure ^^

People in my class have a weird way of sneaking up behind me, and somehow always seem to bump into me (hint, most of them hate me) I don't want that happening with hot melted metals.
