Day 74: Caught Red-Handed

Write about being caught doing something embarrassing.

Something comes over me when a Lady Gaga song comes on.

One day you're just preparing your dinner and drinking a glass of wine, the sun is finally shining and you just feel great. Like nothing in life can go wrong. It's a truly fantastic feeling.

Then all of a sudden, Lady Gaga's John Wayne comes up on shuffle and you're belting your heart out to your dog, who's looking at you like you've lost your damn mind. But you don't care because everything is going amazing!

"I'M STRUNG OUT ON JOHN WAAAAAAAYNE." As I stomp my feet with my wine glass in my hand and my dog finally gets into it too and she's jumping and I'm jumping and we're both hyped up and then I hear laughter...

I look up and realize I forgot that my damn screen door was open and there was a group of people laughing and looking at me as they slowly walked past and yes, one of them had their phone out and presumably took a video or a photo.

Yes, I am THAT girl.

I remember waving and laughing and then quickly closing the door and the blinds. I continued to sing and dance because what else am I supposed to do?

Ain't no shame in my game.

Except I was also in a sports bra and shorts and had a massive wedgie from dancing. So a tad bit of shame...
