i was looking for a thread i thought was called "i'm an idiot" as i was going to contribute. i couldn't find it so i put up a new one.

so, i'm an idiot this week. i hung up on my husband's boss. the number came up that i didn't recognize so i thought it was a telemarketer. i hit talk, then hung up. she called back and left a message. when i told my husband what happened i told him the children did it. shame on me.

i spent the whole day worrying i got him fired since they were looking for him and he wasn't there yet. luckily it was okay.

lesson learned. much as i hate the phone stop doing that...

Are we supposed to share our idiot moments? There's no storage device big enough to store the many bytes of data it would take to share each and every idiot moment I have, those of which I assure you are many. Only a moderate exaggeration.

Yes, that's the idea of the thread.

yesterday while trying to open a pack of 6 cola cans, i somehow managed to open the can before i'd even opened the wrapper it was in.
the result?

by the time it actually was opened, coke had spilled everywhere

I work in a pet store and today someone bought an aquarium plant. I tried to scan the plant before I remembered I needed to look it up on the computer... Because plants don't have barcodes...

Plants don't have bar codes. Ha ha ha ha. I had several stupid mixups lite that....

I opened my friends car doors, got in the car, and gave her the apple I was eating, instead of the keys that I had in my other hand.

Not a serious offense but she laughed at me! She asked me how I was supposed to start the car with my apple...

I had misplaced a rake I use to groom my eskie dogs several YEARS ago. They are dual coated & a rake is the only thing that works for grooming them. It was a special one with rounded prongs & they spin around. I ended up buying another one earlier this year that was the same quality because I desperately needed it & looked everywhere in the house with no luck finding the original one. I was cleaning off my craft table to use at the yard sale....& there under everything was the old rake I had been looking for for so long. Always find something after I buy a new one to replace it. I am sure someday while cleaning I will find my smart phone I lost last April.

Lately I've been very forgetful and begun the same conversations repeatedly. I honestly don't remember these converstations. I feel like such an idiot when this happens.
