An Awkward Moment & Theater Thursday

On Monday I experienced one of the most awkward moments in my 26 years of life. Not even kidding. So allow me to finally explain the awkwardness which took place. If you've never heard about the crazy things my neighbors do then after this you might want to read about them here.

As you all know (if you've been reading), I've been sick since Sunday evening. I've only left my house twice since then and my pajamas have been my attire of choice. Last week, we began having problems with the water pressure in our shower so we knew we were going to have to get someone in here to take a look at it. Well... of course they came on Monday. The day that I've got a wicked fever and throat that feels like it's on fire. I'm laying on my couch in my pink fleece pj's with white rabbits on them and hear the door bell. The guy is here to take a look at it and figure out the problem so it can be fixed. 

After a few minutes and many trips up and down my steps to the basement, he realizes he's going to need another opinion (code for I have no idea what I'm doing). Ok, great! Insert sarcasm. So he leaves and a few minutes later comes back to my door, opens it up and says, "Is it ok if I bring in Doug (not using his real name)? At this point, I'm like What?!?! Um..ok? Because Doug is one of my next door neighbors who has never been in my house let alone in my upstairs bathroom. They know each other and apparently he knows a lot about indoor plumbing, electricity, etc. He comes into the house, basically because at that point it would have been even more awkward not to let him come in because he was standing on the porch waiting and could hear the guy asking if it was for him to bring him in. 

Here's where the awkwardness really begins. I get up off the couch so I don't look like a complete slouch.  I look at my neighbor who's just come into my living room and he literally is standing there with bare feet, a white t-shirt and in his yellow underwear. Nope... not even kidding! Let's address all the points of his awkwardness and inappropriateness:

1. The bare feet- He had no socks or shoes on. He lives across the street. It was raining out. Not a drizzle but non stop raining. That means he walked bare foot on the brick street, thru the wet grass and then put his feet onto my carpet. Um, gross! I also caught a glimpse of his toes and it was not good. 

2.The white t-shirt was not white. I could tell that it was probably white at one time but now it had this tint to it. It was also a v-neck and I could tell it was one of those shirts that you're suppose to wear under other shirts not for just everyday use. But the shirt isn't the hot button issue here...

3.The Yellow underwear- to top of his look he walked into my house wearing his yellow boxer shorts. Like he had just been caught mid-change or pre/post shower. From the looks of him though no shower had been involved. So what the heck was he thinking?!?! Wouldn't you want to put on shorts or pants before walking into someone else's house?! It literally would have taken like 5 seconds. 
So there you have it, I'm also now trying to avoid any eye contact with that neighbor. 
This weeks Theater Thursday is A Summer Place

A Summer Place (1959) stars Sandra Dee as Molly, a teenage girl vacationing for the summer on Pine Island, Maine with her parents. Pine Island holds special memories for her family because her dad Ken, a now millionaire use to lifeguard there in his younger days. Ken runs into an old flame named Sylvia and they soon find out that their love is still there. Appalled by their parents behavior Molly becomes close to Sylvia's son Bart (Arthur Kennedy). 

Eventually Molly and Bart realize they have more in common than their distaste for their parents actions and begin seeing each other. Once the summer ends Molly heads off to college as does Bart. They continue to see each other but discover something that will always keep their two families intertwined.

This is a great old movie, if you love Sandra Dee or old movies then you'll love adding this one to your collection. Now for the fun part! Have a movie that you love? Great! Post about it and then come back here and link up. That way everyone will get to see movies that they may not known about otherwise. Don't know how to link up? Just e-mail me and I'll walk you through the steps!

I dont' even know what to say about this. Honestly. It's disgusting on so many levels..but I think the worst is the no pants dance. WTF? just throw some pants on.

And what kind of guy just asks his buddy for plumbing advice?

Oh M Gee! I bet that is one plumber you won't be calling again!

...and creepy guy should not be leaving his house in his yellow drawers!

Unknown said...

Oh my Gosh. For real? His underwear? He didn't think oh hold on, let me put on pants before I go outside? Why would you not think that?! Why would that not be the firs thing that comes to mind?! Why would you be ok wearing that and going into someone's house?! Why? That is seriously the ickiest thing ever. And don't even get me started on bare feet.

That sounds awful. I would have informed him of my no-nudity policy and sent him packing.

tina said...

Who does things like that? The no shoes walking into someones house is bad enough, but the underwear is just.....I have no words!!?? He really couldn't take 5 seconds to throw on some pants, sweats or shorts?? Seriously? I am totally grossed out and feel so bad that you had to deal w/that...but I also had to laugh! :P
