Daft, silly or embarrassing things you have done?

I was on an aeroplane and reading the inflight mag, it had a double page spread of a perfume so I instinctively put my head into the magazine to smell the perfume, it had no scratch and sniff:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

My OH laughs all the time at me when I say thank you to the cash machine dispensing money:rotfl:

I once put kisses on a bosses 40th birthday card. Pass the tippex!!!

A director's 1st name is Wenje. When I sent them an email my spell checker picked this up as a mis-spelling and offered a replacement, which I accepted. When he opened his email he would have been greeted with "Dear Weenie"!

I severely damaged my eye last Friday by trying to take out my contact lens,notrealising it was already out of my eye. I scratched my cornea until Mr. Conway came to the bathroom to find out why i was crying and stopped me. Behind my tears, i could not see the contact lens in the sink!

A week later, and my eye finally is finally clearing of blood... Horrible, and daft.

Ouch!! :eek: Reminds me of what I did a couple of weeks ago; I got my contact lenses mixed up and spent all day wondering why my eyes were really blurry! We'd gone away for the weekend and OH kept pointing things out to me to look at and I just kept saying, 'Oooh yeah, lovely...' but I couldn't see a thing! :rotfl:

When my daughter was congested with the cold my doctor told me to buy a steam inhaler and put a couple of menthol crystals in it. When I went into Boots I asked the young man behind the counter if he had any crystal meth.

well thanks all I just had a great laugh
for those who left the baby
I did too, both of em in a double buggy that I tripped over on the way out of the shop, and muttered about people leaving buggies in such places:)

I have a habit of getting in the wrong side of the car, I don't generally drive (mostly am a passenger) and we visit Canada where they drive on the other side of the road. so when its my turn to drive I get in the passenger side.
My DD is in a world of her own and has crossed the road when traffic coming and walked into bollards and other street furniture regularly.

often get words mixed up and once said to nanna we had been evicted instead of evacuated, that caused a whole load of problems:)

The last time a thread like this came up I posted a few embarrassing stories about me, so I think I'll shame my husband this time!
Back when he lived with his parents he was in a band and had band practice once a week. One day he took all his equipment out to the lane outside their house (thousands of pounds worth of stuff), brought his car out of the garage, and instead of stopping to put his equipment in the car he just drove off and left it there. He actually made the entire half hour drive and didn't realise anything was amiss until he checked the voicemail message he'd got just after he had left, which was his mum sounding totally incredulous and asking him if he knew he'd just driven off and left all his stuff outside? He's lucky she was there to take it in before it got nicked.
Whenever he gets in the car before me I always make a point of reminding him not to leave without me - if he could leave expensive musical equipment lying about he could easily leave me!

Oh done that many times! It would really confuse people ringing the house phone when I answered 'Hello, X Helpdesk' And after a while I took to answering the work phone 'Catalogue number?' instead of the welcome spiel because I was jumping forwards to what I knew the next qestion would be!

Yep, done that too!

Last one I can remember doing is writing out a birthday card and envelope for my friend, going to her house and handing her said envelope...on which I'd written my own name on! D'oh!
