When I was a kid, every time I pulled a dumb stunt, I'd be mortified - usually looking around and hoping that no one else witnessed my lack of grace or ineptitude. But as I've matured (and become even less graceful), I've learned that it's a heckuva lot more fun to laugh at this proof of my humanity. Every one pulls off the occasional dumb stunt. Some of us more than others. I laugh A LOT!
So this is a thread where we can celebrate our membership in the great human race by telling us of your latest "smooth move".
For instance: Today I drove seventeen miles to the closest grocery store so that I could get all that I need for holiday baking and for Christmas Dinner - a pretty big deal for myself and my kids. There were so many items that I needed that I'd developed an extensive list. A list (I realized as soon as I walked into the store) that I'd left at home - 17 miles away.
I could have driven home - a wasted 34 miles, but instead I decided to wing it. This resulted in me stopping in my tracks every so often, and mentally going through recipes for ingredients that I may or may not have. It must have looked to an outsider as if I was suddenly having an out-of-body experience right there in Walmart.
Another example: Just now, I managed to spill a cup of coffee, with a generous amount of creamer, into my keyboard. This might very well have dire consequences;jgqajpgakja;fjjw'oypsoihpsi@#$&!!
You get the idea. 'Fess Up! I wanna hear your dumb stunts!
