LOL Christy! My sis and I were just talking about how when we have rental cars, we tend to lose them in the parking lots, but I don't think I've ever tried to get in someone elses car.

He was very nice about it. As I was getting into the RIGHT car, another girl showed up with, uhm, adult beverages. I think that maybe not everyone in the car was supposed to be drinking them....hence the giggles.

lol Christy! Last year (big Bro from Colorado & younger Sis from Arizona were visiting) I jumped into my brother's big pickup. Now, when my Sis usually visits she just grabs my keys & drives off. I rarely drive, so it's never been a problem, we function like an ol' married couple. We've both got insurance plus it gives the little truck a workout. Down the block, as Bro is driving, I said Wow, look at that! Red long bed Toyota with a white canopy, somebody in the neighborhood has a truck that looks just like MINE. Bro said "Bisc, that IS your truck!" Opps, forgot that Sis had mentioned she had errands to run. Felt kind of stupid for not recognizing my own truck.

LOL!! I can't count the number of times I've gone to the wrong car. Why is it you never notice a car like yours until you get it and there seems to be a ton which look exactly the same? One night my DH was waiting to pick up my DD from church choir practice. This boy came running out and jumped in the front seat next to DH. He took one look at DH and just got out of the car without saying anything. We knew he was soooo embarrassed. His mom had the same car an we had a good laugh about it later.

LOL Watching, that is too funny! Poor kid. When I first got my minivan, one thing I loved about it was that there didn't seem to be a ton of them on the road. For the first three or four months, the only one like it we saw was in San Diego! Then all of a sudden it seemed to turn into the most popular minivan around. Everywhere we went we were running into my car. There's someone around near where we live who has the exact same Quest. I always see it at the same stores I shop at and driving down the same streets. Only difference is that mine has a fairy decal on one window and theirs has an Honor Roll sticker.

Giggle! "fairy decal on one window and theirs has an Honor Roll sticker" In my case, my truck is "elderly". 1986. My exhusband's truck, what pleasure I had taking it BACK! Mean ol' Bisc, you nasty creature! Just turned 100,000 miles, can you believe it? My insurance guy asked if I wanted to sell it to him.

My dad was picking up my mom at work and some lady got into the car and just started talking to him. He did not know what to do and she just went on talking. Finally she looked at him and said let's go. Saw it was not her hubby and ran out of the car. My parents laughed all the way home. From then on he would always wave at the lady when she came out of work.

That's funny and it brings back memories. My Mom would try to get into any car, regardless of make, size or shape, as long as it was the same colour as my Dad's. He used to joke that he was lucky she hadn't run off on him.

LOL, Jimmer, that reminds me of the time my mom came out of the grocery store and put all the groceries in the back seat, got in the driver seat and couldn't get the key into the ignition, started looking around and realized she was in the wrong car! I laughed so hard I cried when she told me about that. Oh how I miss that woman!

Stupid, stupid exams. Because I have computers in my class (25 of 'em), I have tables which means 2 kids are sitting smack-dab next to each other. We pull the towers out to create a cubicle kind of feeling, but I always do 2 to 3 versions of tests to prevent cheating. So, today is final exam day. I spent at least 3 hours last night "variegating" the test, and sent both versions to the copy center this morning. I even had 2 answer sheets so kids could be sure answer sheet and exam matched up. You got it - about 20 minutes into the test, a kids says, "Hey! My yellow sheet (answers) doesn't match my white sheet (exam) on section C!" I check, and sure enough - his answer sheet is A and exam is B. Within 5 minutes, at least 5 other students have same issue. I'm just walking around writing "use Exam B" on the top so I use the right key. That's when I realize.... EVERY DAMN TEST SAID EXAM B AT THE TOP!! Only half of them were really Exam B, but the labels were all wrong. I ended up just telling the kids to staple the dang test to their answer sheet so I can see what THEY saw when writing their answers. ****sigh**** What a PITA because I was too stupid to catch it before hand!

I am going to do a bunch of loads of laundry today because I am washing drapes. I took the first load out of the washing machine and into the drier. I went down to the basement to start the second load in the washing machine. Crap, I never turned the drier on. Now my schedule is all off.

Walked into MacDonald's tonight and accidentally ordered a Whopper (I meant to say a Big Mac). When I saw the shocked look on the girl's face I realized my booboo - and I got a fit of the giggles.

Babysat nephew who is still potty training. He told me he was done. He was not. Put him back on the potty and went to find clean underpants and jeans. Could only find socks and pj's. His dad works in basement office so called down for location of clean clothes. Went back to bathroom found nephew standing near potty. Seat of potty covered in poo. I cleaned potty, his dad cleaned him. I told nephew to come wash his hands, he put his fingers over the spout and sprayed water all over bathroom. Baby sister woke up, changing her pee diaper wasn't bad in retrospect. Sis has asked me to watch babies Friday night. As always, happy to do so, but did request all pooping be done before I get there.

Oh, lord I have to show this thread to Colossus. I am notorious for heading to the wrong car. At one point I was at a gas station during a time when I was driving Colossus' white Riviera quite frequently. I happened to be driving my black Honda that day. After going inside to pay, I came back out, climbed into my car to start it up and realized the keys didn't fit. The real owner was standing outside his white car watching and wondering whether he should call the police. When I realized I'd gotten into the wrong car, I got out, apologized PROFUSELY and said I thought the big white car was my car. After which he watched me climb into my tiny black car and drive away. He had to think I'd lost my mind. I'm so glad I'm not the only one.

LOL GAL! Also, love your gif Mak! I did something stupid while reading the latest entries in this thread. I'm reading, but not paying attention to who has written what post. I get to Beckie's post and read about "poo sugar." I'm thinking, what is "poo sugar" and how did I miss that reference in the previous post? and kinda wondering if I really want to know what "poo sugar" is! Then I finally look at the poster's name in the previous post!

Monday my dd stopped here on her way home from work. I had on a little chenille jacket over my tee. She pointed to my jacket as she usually does when she thinks I've bought something new. I told her no, it wasn't new. She said no, look at the buttons. Yup, missed the first button, but not the buttonhole. Totally lopsided, lol.

LOL Couchtomato. You reminded me of one I did a few years ago. I was helping Mom through airport security, where they made us both remove our shoes. I put mine back on, and stooped down to help Mom back on with hers. We struggled a bit with the first shoe, and went on to the next one, when a sweet Asian woman sitting next to us waved frantically at us, and in broken English kept saying "wrong one, wrong one!" I look down, and see I've put the right shoe on Mom's left foot.
