One time we had the whole family over and we were watching a Sox game and so you know how it says the players' names on the bottom of the screen? I had been looking away and I looked back and just saw the last word, what I thought was the batter's last name, said Area. I asked "his last name is area?" not recognizing the name. "Yeah", my father replied, "they have party areas there." "There is a player named Party Areas?" I asked, surprised that that would be someone's name. My father just rolled his eyes and said "No, they have actual party areas there." Whoops!

Don't feel bad. I worked at Hardee's years ago. One night a man came through drive thru and ordered a whopper. When I tried to explain to him that he was at Hardee's, he insisted that he was at Burger King and wanted a whopper. I finally told the cook to make him a whopper and we sent him on his merry way.

I thought this replay was tag worry and I see you have another one!!!

That used to happen to me all the time when I worked at McDonald's in High school. People wouldn't believe me when I told them we didnt' sell a whopper!

I was driving on I77 near here with my boss (we were coming back from one of our mills) and I noticed on the boards above the road where they put messages concerning accidents etc it said

SCOOT TEST
SCOOT TEST
SCOOT TEST

I asked him ' what's a scoot test'? He looked at me and said ' It says SC DOT Test' Now this is even more embarrassing when you know that I work in Transportation.

You guys are going to get me in trouble. Everyone is looking at me funny because I can't stop laughing.

I was visiting my 93 year old Grandmother in May in RI. She is a hugh baseball fan. Well we are watching the Sox and the guy does a pretty stupid play and she is yelling at the TV and tell us all about the stupid play he just did. So in the meantime they show a replay and she screams "Can you believe he just did that same darn thing again- What a dummy". We all were laughing so hard we couldn't tell her it was a replay.

I'm so ditzy I couldn't remember my latest ditzy moment! But I just did.

A few weeks ago, my dad bought one of those family packs of sausage. There were 20 in the package. We decided to wrap them in 2 packages of 6 & 2 packages of 4. He decided to make sausages & peppers for dinner & asked me to thaw 8 sausages. So I said "OK, I'll defrost one package of 6, and try to separate 2 of them from one of the others." He looked at me and said "why not defrost both packages of 4?" Well, duh, that makes 8, right?

Just thought of another one--

3 weeks ago 4 of us from work decide to go out for lunch (we usually brown bag it). I drive, we pull up to the place and everyone gets out so I lock the doors and we all go inside. I was heading up the back of our group. I see friend 1 and friend 2 and thought friend 3 was in front on them but I don't see her. I'm thinking maybe she saw someone in the parking lot she knew and was talking to them. So I start to head outside to see if she wants me to go ahead and order for her. Friend 1 looks at me like where are you going !?!?! (the place was crowded). Well, I get outside and there is no one in the parking lot. I just happen to look at my car which it parked near the door and see friend 3 in the back seat waving her arms. While I push the key fob to unlock the door. She comes out saying why did you lock me in the car???? I ask her why did you pull up the door lock and get out???? She said she didn't think about doing that. We walk back in and friend 1 and 2 had no idea friend 3 was even missing. We still laugh about this.

I recently had a similar lack of clarity. We were watching a Red Sox game. I quickly glanced at the screen and said "Who's Key Matchup?" The graphic was very similar to that used to show player stats.

Many years ago, I tried checking into the wrong hotel in Boston (Copley Plaza instead of Copley Square). Boy, did I run fast to catch the valet guy before my car went into a $20/day lot for 10 minutes.

Come into my check out line today, trying to pay for her groceries with what SHE thought was her Credit card....it wouldn't scan in the machine, and she was getting upset. I asked to see "what kind of card" she had. It was...............................................................Her DRIVERS LISCENSE! I said "Ma'm it won't scan because its your drives license." She said: "Oh for craps sake, how stupid could I be?"

I know! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who did this

What a great thread!

Although my family thinks I'm nuts over here all by myself.


I took DD to the wrong gym the other day.

Now I could see doing it if it had been right after she switched gyms, I mean after dropping off and picking up at the same place almost every day, I tend to operate on auto-pilot.
But we switched gyms more than 2 years ago! I know where she goes to gymnastics, I really do. WTH was I thinking?!
Of course why she let me get all the way there without saying something I don't know. Maybe she just needed a good laugh that day.

So glad to know I'm not the only one who has Spacey Moments (and I'm not talking about time with Kevin)
