Ill got first.

I felt a bit nauseous coming back from work one day last week so I went straight to bed without eating.

The next morning I was quite hungry and once I had driven to work I went to a Tesco Superstore with a hankering for a banana.

Cue stupidity. I went to the adjoining Costa to use the bathroom and quickly scanned for bananas, which they didn’t have so I bought an overpriced toastie instead.

A few days later I’m sat mind wandering and I think I was in Tesco with thousands of bananas but I just checked Costa. Sigh

Yesterday I had to finish my work at 6 to attend a 3 hours language class at 7 and I was dissociating so hard that when I left I had to come back to work to grab something I forgot, then I freaked out thinking I lost a key to my office (they were in the other pocket). Then halfway to the language school I realized that I lost my coat somewhere along the way. Then I managed to get lost somehow on my way to the language school. After the class I got lost twice when I was exiting the fckin building! I was like “get yourself together FFS!” lol Feel so stupid even now while I’m writing this.

I lost my coat somewhere along the way

This reminds me of a friend after a long night out. I let them borrow my (thankfully cheap) coat because it was cold out, and we hopped on a bus to get home. I look over and the coat was gone. Friend had no clue what happened. We were both super tired and out of it but yeah it just disappeared on the journey lol.

Someone parked their motorbike in front of the door to my house (there are no yards in my country, your door is right up against the street), so I couldn’t open the door or get in. The owner was nowhere to be found.

So of course they locked the steering, so you can’t roll it out of the way. Being still on autopilot after driving through much traffic, I just sort of automatically tried to pick up the motorcycle and move it.

Surprisingly, I succeeded – at least for a few seconds. After moving it only a meter or so, I lost my balance and fell over, with the motorbike landing on me. I earned some impressive bruises for my foolishness.

Thankfully though, this became the most interesting neighborhood gossip for some time, so the person responsible felt too ashamed to keep parking there.

I’m not sure at the moment, but I’m sure that at some point in the coming days/weeks/years I’ll realize what I had done and forever remember it from then on.

I was distracted watching TV. Both my sinus nasal spray and vape were on the table.

I realized I was congested and needed the spray. As a heavy smoker, I am used to grabbing my device mindlessly all day.

So I picked up the vape and proceeded to stick it up my nose because my brain mixed up what I was doing.

I laughed really hard.

I took over a colleague’s reporting as they’re leaving and with the press of a button all 4 reports broke for the whole business. During peak monthly reporting time. Whoopsie. Now waiting for IT to fix everything, which might take a while.

Also I walk into things quite a lot.
