Awkward Moments Day
When is Awkward Moments Day? This holiday is always celebrated on March 18
Pardon us for being Lubberly, but today is Awkward Moments Day, a March 18 holiday. C’mon, admit it. You’ve had an awkward moment or two in your life. You know, the ones that make you say “I’m so embarrassed”. We’ve all had those weird and uncomfortable occurrences and events, that we wish we could take back. I’m sure you’re no exception. Some are innocent little occasions out of our control, a chance encounter or experiences that may not have even been your fault. Others are real whoppers, the kind that makes you want to crawl under a rock until the red fades from your cheeks. Years after the event, we can reflect back and usually laugh about it with others.
Being able to laugh about your gaffes and awkward moments is good for you. As a matter of fact, being able to relate your past discretions and awkward moments is a big part of Awkward Moments Day.
