Okay I will be the first to stand up and say "I am a Dork" There are so many instances that I cannot remember just one but I will wear the badge proudly.............
Ok...mine was soooooo bad that I've paid attention since then.....
I tend to go off into my own little world....I've done this for quite some time. One of my nicknames in school was "Space"
I was in the store with my family...father, mother, sister and two brothers....we did our shopping thing and headed to the exit, I was just walking along in "my" wonderful world, got to the car and got mad when I couldn't open the door and nobody would help me!!!
All of a sudden my father was pulling me away, I came back to "his" world, look up and I'm surrounded by the family I actually walked out with. Right number of people but they happened to be black and I was this pale little redhead. You would think someone would notice!!!
Well the adults had a REAL good laugh about it...I'm glad I could amuse them.....
I have several moments I could share but since I am taking the kids to a free movie this morning I was reminded of what happened to me there last year...
After getting there late with 10 kids in tow my girlfriend and I were forced to take the last seats available...the entire front row. We settled the kids in and about 30 minutes into the movie we run out of popcorn so I go back for a refill. On my way back in while munching on popcorn I am looking up at the movie, just as I reached the front of the theatre I ran straight into the nearly invisible pony wall to the side of the screen and my bucket of popcorn goes flying up into the air and dumps all over. The adults in the theatre noticed and got a good laugh along with me. It was soooo funny, I just picked up my bucket and went back out for another refill. I am proud to be a dork.
Okay here goes. Dont laugh @ me!!
I was around 12, maybe 13. Most girls my age were already filling in their bras, but no, not me, I was either a slow developer of just meant to be flat chested (Ive learned with time in life its the latter).
My cousins and I were outside, just sitting under a tree in her front yard, on a summer afternoon, when her dad (my uncle) came back from town. He bought us one of those small, above-ground pools. We climbed into the back of his truck, so excited, her and I, we were jumping for joy in the truckbed when all of a sudden a couple of small wads of tissue fall out from under my shirt! Yep, you guessed it, it was my 'stuffing' from my bra. Her and I just stopped and froze, while my uncle looked at the tissue then at me, and said, with a small chuckle, 'I think you lost something!'. I was SOOOO embarrassed. He wasnt laughing at me, he probably knew I was so shocked, but from time to time to this day, we still remember that
Kodak' moment. There are a few 'dork' moments but thats one, for now.
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

Great stories, everybody.
Yes, my name is Pattie, and I am a dork. People are always pulling me off my little planet, which ticks me off, because it's usually so much nicer there!
I don't dare tell you the number of times I have been a dork. I am more a dork than anything else. But I am not brave enough to disclose my mental and physical lapses here.
Dork? Yep I've had my share of dork moments-it's a special club!
