| OMG!! ...That is how my typical day goes!...I really thought something was wrong w/ me...I kept telling everyone it was probably the Splenda or Nutrasweet in my pop...Last week I was at the store in the dressing room & I was trying on pants...when I was finished trying things on I put one shoe back then realized I had not put my pants back on ....cute look, shirt...shoes... no pants I put the phone in the frig a few weeks ago, then I paid a bill by check & put the carbon in the envelope, not the check & mailed it I think it's like that story describes, I'm just not paying attention & lost in thought (at least I hope so)

| You guys are as forgetful as I am. I went shopping with my sister looking for a pocketbook and got so into it, trying them on my shoulder, looking in the mirror etc that when I did find the one I liked I walked over to the register with it on my shoulder and opened it for my wallet and the damn pockebook was empty! I had hung up my own one on one of the racks and my sister and I frantically began looking through the rows of bags to find mine. We did and thank heavens no one walked away with it! I never lived that one down. |
