TIFU by sewing up my brothers childhood toy

I was vacuuming the house when I found these little beads everywhere. It’s happened before so I assumed It was coming from one of our stuffed animals. My brother has had this puppy toy for like 18 years, so me being sentimental I decided to sew him up and fix him as a surprise. I hyper-fixated on it to the point where my mum told me off for not eating dinner, it was my favourite dinner too. I was super proud of my work, so I decided to run up to my brother who was upstairs and show him. Mind you this is a very open area, literally a second little living room just upstairs. Bro was “fixing viruses when his finger slipped and his pants fell down.” He didn’t see me, but needless to say I immediately went back downstairs and just put his toy on his bed. You needa do, what you needa do… but jesus christ, what if it was my mum instead? It’s like just whipping it out in the middle of the kitchen. I lost my appetite.

TL;DR: Spent a lot of time sewing up my brother’s childhood toy, went to give it to him and accidentally caught him wiggling his worm. 💀

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
