How to make shopping embarassing, 10/06/07, Liz's blog of procrastination

June 10, 2007

Step 1: go bra shopping – never the funnest type of shopping.

Step 2: go into a lingerie shop – check no one you know sees you.

Step 3: walk round said shop, probably in circles because you’re like that.

Step 4: notice that all the shop assistants are now looking at you because you’re walking around in circles.

Step 5: hastily chose a bra that you would not mind purchasing so assistants stop looking at you.

Step 6: go to the changing rooms to try said bra on.

Step 7: panick because the bra fitter is someone you know from school.

What can you do in this situation?

run away? No, because then you look stupid and rude.
have a nice long chat to them about bras? Erm, no, I think that the fact that I’m already embarassed about this pretty much means a big fat no.
have a nice awkward hello and exchange of friendlies then hide in the changing room? Unfortunately, this might be the best option.

And so it happenned.

sigh

I guess that most people in your position would have done 3, so your response probably isn’t that unusual. The bra fitter, or your ex-friend, whichever way you want to look at it, is probably reading this article now and cracking up about the whole thing…
