At work: The circumstances surrounding the discovery of
this were pretty damned uncomfortable. I think that the office manager who investigated the whole thing may have tried to blackmail the firm over it. Huh. I had forgotten how soap operay it was to work there...
Outside of work: Oh, lord. There are so many. Most involving alcohol. One example: My freshman year of college, I was desperately, desperately in love with Miles Dennison, who of course had no interest whatsoever in me. Because of a contraindication of a drug I was on, I couldn't drink for most of that year, but towards the end of the second semester, I went off the drug and could drink again.
On April 18, my dorm had it's annual Playboy listed blow out party, and my best friend and I made jello shots with tequila in preparation for the event. The jello shots never set, so we just drank them. All of them. I'm an 18 year old kid with no tolerance to speak of and not much recent experience with alcohol. It's not pretty. At some point or another towards the end of the night, Miles was set as a guard to make sure that the party goers didn't get into the residential parts of the door, and I literally sat at his feet trying to get close to him. Details are sort of fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure that it was nachos. All over his lap. Ugh.
Generally, most encounters with my ex-'s wife were uncomfortable, especially the first.
