    What is the stupidest thing you've ever done?

     Go!  I'll chime in after a couple of replies have made me feel better...

    haha - I could make a BOOK! I'm assuming we're talking humerous stupid things here... haha

    I wore two different shoes to work one day, I just assumed since they were together on the floor - they were the same type. But nope - that's what I get for waking 3 minutes before I have to leave!

    I sat through 1/2 a college class before I realized I was in the wrong class (just the first day... haha). 

    I dumped the entire box of mac and cheese (cheese packet and all) in a pot of boiling water, and didn't realize until I went to stir....

    I went to close our basement door in Illinois, and broke the window on the back porch door. that was a long story that kinda requires hand motions to understand.

    I often lose my phone and car keys, to find them in the frigde........

    I'll be back with more.... hehe

    When I was in college I originally took classes to be an RN. Well, I was in this super large autotorium for my Math class. The place was packed. I was sitting in the last row, highest up, closest to the stairs. I had an extra large iced coffee. I picked the coffee up by the lid and the lid broke off....the coffee hit the ground so loud! The coffee trickled its way about 80 rows down all the way to my professor. I had to get so many paper towels from the girls bathroom to try and clean it all up....every stair......everyone was laughing, my professor yelled at me....it was a big scene. Nobody even offered to help, lol! Embarrassed

     Well I just left our bath running and it overflowed and has leaked through to downstairs.  I am in SO much trouble.  DH is furious.  It will probably cost £1000 to fix.  The repairs are going to be a huge PITA.  I'm so mad at myself. Sad

    Have you rung your building and contents insurance provider?  DH spilled coffee in my old laptop once and they covered that.

    OK, here's another....might make you feel better.....I used Jeremy's truck one day, he left his wallet in it on the dashboard (dumb!) I forgot it there AND I forgot to lock the doors. I came out of the store and his wallet was still there so I didn't think anything of it. When I got back, I handed him his wallet. Everything was there except....his credit card! The guy who took it used to buy only gas and cigarretts before the company cancelled it, so we did luck out there, and Jeremy hasn't had any other credit/fraud problems.

     On the way to DH's Immigration appointment I locked the keys in the house! We were leaving a little later than we wanted to and it was about 30 min away...he was so mad!! Thankfully his dad works 5 min away and was able to come unlock the door. We got to the appt at 1:45 when it startedTongue Tied

    I locked my keys in the euthanasia room at work once... I was the only EU tech that day. I had to call my friend on her day off to come unlock the door so I could go home. Embarrassed

    I also locked my moms car keys in the car, when we were in Wisconsin. The spare keys were home in Illinois....

    I was at the rink late one night, and lost my keys. I had to call my mom at midnight to come unlock my car- I swore they had to be in there.... but nope! they were in my locker were I put them... she was a bit peeved.

    keys and I just don't agree.

    I feel sad for your poor bathroom.

    My laptop incident was pretty stupid. I've locked my keys in the car a million times. Ever try to break into a Volvo? Not easy. That always made me feel a little better. I've gotten off the wrong exit on the highway - I'm just driving in my own world and decide to exit I guess!

    Haha - I've done that - millions of times. A group of us was coming home from Busch Gardens....a normally pretty easy drive. But where does Erica end up? Tampa Airport....... they STILL laugh at me for that - and it was a few years ago.

    Oh lordy - the Orlando airport kills me. You have an option to go South or North - neither of which helps me, since I'm kinda East of Orlando - and every time I almost go the wrong way and then kill everyone trying to get in the other exit.

    about 3 years ago my family went to spain together. my mom lives close to the airport, whereas i live about 30-40 min away from the airport, so i slept over my mom's house so we can just go together. but only when we are putting on our jackets to leave to the airport do i realize i left my passport at home... we did make our flight though, cause it was during the may holidays here so the streets were really empty, and i bribed the cab driver to floor it. lol... they will make fun of me for that one until the day i die, i swear!

    Lets see I was in pre cal class and I could not find my notebook to write down my notes so I asked the teacher if I could go to my previous class ( Honors U.S. History)  to get it. Well we have four halls in the school and I was on the third and had to go to the second hall, no problem except when I got to the US history class I look under my seat and there was nothing so I go back to pre. cal. feeling all worried because I couldn't find my notebook and when I get to class I happend to glance down at my seat and there it was laughing at me, oh boy did everybody laughed at me.

    Then this other time we were studing for the final and I fealt thirsty and so I asked to get a drink of water so I go out and take a drink and when I came to the classroom door one of my class mates asked me "R, where is the water fountain?" I didn't get what she was sayin until I looked to the right of me and saw that there was a water fountain about 5 ft from me and I had completly forgoten there was one there and I had gone to the other one that was a good 50 ft away from the class room. Oh boy do they still remind me of that one......Embarrassed

    every time I almost go the wrong way and then kill everyone trying to get in the other exit.

    I was 15 minutes late picking my dad up at the airport last time he went on a trip. In my defense... I was IN the airport... I was just not in the arrivals area.... I circle SO many times - and each time I swear it's different.

    Like Tampa trafic - coming off of 60 to merge on 275 changes DAILY. I tried to go to Tampa one day... and ended up in St. Pete......and once you're on the bridges - you can't just turn around....

    and people wonder why I hate driving. haha

     One time a friend and I went to Winnipeg for a weekend.  I always always forget either my underwear or my toothbrush so that time I packed those things ahead of time.  We went out the night before we were to leave and stayed out way too late.  By the time we got home we had only about an hour to sleep before we had to leave so it was rushed.  We got up on time, quickly got ready and took off.  Imagine my surprise when we got to the Peg and I opened my bag to find nothing but undies and a toothbrush...
