Ok Vicki, Since you posted this thread I've been debating how much and what brain fade moment I was willing to disclose on account it may further incriminate my already fragile reputation (hah). Sooooo, I decided settled on one that happened yesterday and one that relates to medhelp. Ok yesterday I was rushing like a nut , doing 10 things at once. I pulled out into traffic, crossed a median about to proceed into the hwy . I meant to punch my window washer button on my steering wheel but pushed on the right side of it instead of the left. Yup, instead of water squirting out I put my car into PARK instead of drive and it came to a screeching halt and stopped me smack in the flow of the oncoming traffic. It took me a few seconds (seemed like 10 min) to figured out what I did. I put it back in drive and got dirty looks from all that had to brake and keep from hitting me ughhhh. Ok, now for my second reveal. 2 years ago while in the mountains of NC I decided I'd go to an alanon meeting. I had never been and although I needed to go to AA or NA, I wanted to get my feet wet in alanon. I drove to a neighboring town cause I read that they had meetings in the local moose lodge on Tue. nights. I walked in and there were 7 people in the room sitting around the table. I was sweating bullets and had such inner jitters you wouldn't believe. I signed in sat down and 10 minutes into the meeting after they handed out pamphlets (recepies), I realized I was in a weight watchers meeting instead. I still don't know what the he-- I read that had me thinking it was an alanon meeting but I apparently had the wrong night. I nearly stroked out with a flushed face full of embarrassment. I had to announce I was in the wrong place and exit. true story. Only for you Vic!!!!!!! Man, I'm cringing just thinking back......
Oh you guys that is just too much!!!!!! When I got married I was sooo spaced out from the night before..We went to a casino after and my hub and I still had our wedding clothes on..I saw this guy standing there in his tux..I went up to him and stood there just a yacking at him..He walked away..I was mad..Hey whats up I said..OMG it was another wedding couple..Not my hub but he was cute too....Oh I was very red in the face....lol
That's hilarious! I did something like that when I was very young and not addicted to anything. Was walking along in Circus Circus with my now ex and we stopped to look at something..then I put my arm I. His and started walking again chatting about all the cool stuff. When I stopped for a second I looked up and said Hey, your not my hisband! The man responded, No but its been fun walking with you. He started laughing and I turned to look baci and find my ex laughing and pointing at me. So embarrassing!
Oh good lord addict!!! Now that is a classic!!!!! lol
My wife and I were in the grocery store one evening and she was looking for a particular item, as usual I was trying to hurry her along. I put my arm around her waist and started directing her down the isle, said something like "come on sweet stuff" and gave her a light pat on her backside But I had grabbed the wrong lady! My wife was still knelt down looking for cream of tarter or something.
She and the other couple just about laughed me out of the store!
They were good natured about it all, but it was emarassing!
Now we are just old bats!!! lol
I was at a second hand store looking at curtains for my room I was repainting. I couldn't make up my mind, so I went out to my car to get a quart sized can of it to match up. I picked which curtains I liked best, started to head back to put the other set back and suddenly realized I left my paint can in the Home Depot bag on the counter up front.....this is where it gets good...
I turned around immediately (which was nano seconds) headed back to counter and my plastic bag and paint can was gone! The gal asked what was wrong, I told her. She runs out in parking lot to check to see if someone picked it up. Another clerk starts checking around and another starts to go back to see if someone turned it in. Meanwhile I'm clucking like a mad hen saying "who would steal a small can of paint", "that just pisses me off", "what would someone do with a quart of special paint", "I just bought that: etc. Then I tell the clerk "well, I will just pay for this curtain". She looks at me and says "does it look like that paint can hanging off your arm?" OMG! I forgot I had looped the bag handles over my arm while carrying my purse and curtains. I laid my head on the counter and started laughing. The clerk says "I think you are ready to go home". LOL! Wowsa!
