  I was putting clothes in the dryer the other day and went to turn it on and it wouldn't start. I couldn't figure out what was wrong since I had just taken some clothes out of the same dryer.

  I looked down and noticed I hadn't closed the dryer door. I felt soooooooooooooooo stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  I thought to myself "Thank god noone was watching."

  Anyone else wanna share something they did and were glad no one was around to see them do something stupid???

  I used to do this all the time. I would get up in the morning and search all over the house for my glasses, only to realize later, that I was wearing them. I put them on as soon as I get up. I guess I forgot sometimes. They are a slight prescription, so it's not like I can't see without them.

  Too bad I can't post anonymously here. Ok, one day driving home from work I started looking in my purse for my house keys. I totally freaked out because I couldn't find them, got off the freeway, and almost got all the way back to my office before I remembered my house keys are on the same ring as my car keys. Yep, I'm an idiot.

  I came off my motor bike on a slippery road once (when I was a learner) and came off standing up landed on my feet running down the road. It must have looked so funny. I was glad no-one was watching. Always makes a mess of the motor bike though.

  At the mall I forgot where I parked my car. Like an idiot I was walking around for 20 minutes looking for my car. The Security patrol car had to drive me around until I spotted my car. This was very embarrasing but according to the security guard, people do this all the time.

  One day after I arrived at work I ripped my britches. Well, I had another pair in the car and changed into those and threw away the old pair. At the end of the day, I put my hand in my pocket for the car keys. Not there. I had thrown the old pair in the dumpster without retrieving them from my pockets and by the end of the day the dumpster had already been emptied and brought to the dump. Fortunately, I had another set of keys at home. But one of my co-workers had to drive me some 20 miles to pick them up and drive me back to work to get my car. Needless to say I had a late supper and was not a happy camper. Dumb!!!!!!!!!!

  Hey Jesika

  I do stupid stuff ALL the time; fortunately, I'm also alone most of the time so rarely does anyone witness my gaffes.

  I always push my sunglasses onto my head when I'm indoors (saves me from looking all over the place for them). Once when I was in a public restroom, I went into the stall, bent over the toilet to line the seat with paper and *plop* ...in went my glasses. I didn't know what to do! So...quiz for ya: should I have a) quietly slipped out and made tracks for the door, leaving the next person to discover my sunglasses floating, or b) retrieved them myself, tossed them in the garbage and washed my hands about a thousand times?

  I'll leave you to figure out what I did

  There were other options. You could have got a fishing line, hooked them out, then sent them back to the manufacturer claiming that they are a bio hazard.

  LOL@ everyone

  Good to know I am not the only one afraid to admit my bouts of "not using my head" or just plan oversight at times.

  These are all great!!!!!!!!!!

  MORE MORE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Safe4kids,

  Your experience reminds me of the following that appeared in Email List.

  "My son Zachary, 4, came screaming out of the bathroom to tell me he'd dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. I fished it out and threw it in the garbage.

  "Zachary stood there thinking for a moment. Then, he ran to my bathroom and came out with my toothbrush. 'We'd better throw this one out too,' he said, " 'cause it fell in a few days ago."
