    I poured OJ instead of milk in my bowl of cereal. Used toothpast for shampoo.

    It should be mandatory to go to work from 9 to 5 pm. Waking up too early causes crazy mornings like these. Lol

    Fell down the stairs. Missed the first step because I was rubbing my eyes and just totally zoned out down the stairs. Yep, looked like I had my *kitten* kicked by some big rough and tough chicks.

    I did this 2 weeks ago! I was absolutely certain I was stepping into the bathroom that is next to the stairway - right up to the point when my foot didn't stop at floor level. Then, when I stopped moving at the bottom of the steps, I peed myself. Really had to go, apparently.

    Oh NO!!!! It's only funny because I can tell you only hurt your pride.

    One year for Mother's Day, I wanted to make homemade cinnamon rolls for my mom. I've made them before but not at 7am. I'm also not a morning person. So I was using a recipe where it was 3-4 cups of flour, depending on how much you need. Well I just threw all 4 cups of flour in without realizing I had to do it gradually and not all of it. Regardless to say the recipe was ruined, I gave up and just went back to bed lol So now I don't make cinnamon rolls before noon lol
  • Things with members of the opposite gender...

    If you're not romantically interested in someone of the opposite sex who you find at least mildly attractive physically then don't be alone with them after 2am. Haha... Sigh...

    pull into the gas station, go inside, pay for the gas, go back outside, get back in car, drive away.

    Sheepishly return in an hour when I realized I never got the gas I paid for. :embarassed:

    They knew already (hey-she came back!) as I walked in red-faced :blushing: , and turned back on the pump for me.

    Years ago when we had been remodeling our house. I was in charge of making sure the baseboards were painted white before going to bed. Well at 530ish in the morning I dipped my paint brush in my coffee cup instead of the paint can. I didn't notice till I smeared coffee on the baseboard that something wasn't right.

    My brain turns off, and despite where ever I am really supposed to go, I'll drive home or drive to work. Autopilot. So I figure if I lose my mind, at least I'll go where someone knows me. :)


    hahaha we call that barn sour.

    lmao!! I have left the house with only half of my makeup done... as in eye shadow and liner and mascara on 1 eye only... which is the reason why I now carry makeup in my purse with me

    Lately I've been so tired I keep grabbing and using my husbands towel. Just did it this morning and he wasn't happy! I've also put my face moisturizer in my hair instead of the leave in conditioner. WOOPSIES!!!!! Oh and the best is putting the milk in the cupboard and the cereal in the fridge!

    This morning, didn't realize hubby was awake before me (thought he was still in bed). Got up to go to the bathroom with my eyes closed and walked straight into the closed bathroom door. Owie! Apparently he thought it was hilarious...
  • I have done a few but the main thing that happens to me when I don't get enough sleep is I'm clumsy as all get out. I drop everything spill everything etc. the one I do the most is make a huge mess when I go to make the coffee in the morning and I'm trying to not wake the kids up and and I end up making so much noise and spilling coffee grounds everywhere. I think I need to have my coffee ready so in the morning I can just turn on....

    I have no mechanical ability whatsoever. My wife told me that she needed oil in her car. I promptly added oil to the brake line reservoir.

    Had to flush the brake lines out. Ended up costing several hundred dollars.

    On the plus side, she doesn't bother me with that kind of stuff anymore.

    I've done this a couple of times.................gone shopping, and came back to what I THOUGHT was my car, but wasnt'. I actually got into a car recently, tried to put my key in the ignition, looked around and thought "who the hell put that stuff in my car?" before realizing I was in the WRONG car!

    I've poured juice on my cereal, wondered where my glasses were (when they were ON MY FACE!), reached up to adjust glasses that were NOT on my face, and almost put lotion on my toothbrush.

    I'm bad for leaving my phone places...but when I'm zoned out/sleep deprived I leave it in the WORST places. Like in a Florida rest stop bathroom stall....had to turn around drive 80 miles out of my way to get it- thank GOD it was still there. Turned my 13 hour drive into a 15 hour drive (IDK why I had to drive the entire way, I had 3 lazy @$$ passengers), sleepy was not the word for what I was. Got on the cruise phone in hand the entire time, kept making sure I had it with me...get into our cabin and realize I left my charger in the car. :ohwell:

    The place where we lived before we bought our home had a tiny master bathroom with a shower stall, toilet and pedastal sink.. nothing else would fit... so during the night one night i woke up out of a dead sleep and went to use the toilet.. bent over and whacked my eye on the LIGHT SWITCH giving myself a black eye.... this was fun trying to delicately explain my stupidity to everyone that asked what happened to my eye
  • One morning I made coffee (because of my lack of sleep)... Made the coffee, got my cup out, put my creamer in and then thought I was "helping" myself out and cleaning up the coffee pot right away, poured the coffee down the drain and never actually put any in my cup. What a let down... lol

    I once got up and thought I was late for work. So, I showered quickly, got dressed, etc. I was really mad that my husband hadn't woken me up like he usually does. As I am about to go out the door, I wonder why it is so dark. It took me a couple of minutes of staring at the clock to realize that it was actually 3am...

    I forgot my name on an exam I took in college because I stayed up all night the night before. I aced the exam but could NOT remember my name until the end of the test.... weird.

    I did that once (sans husband). On a Saturday. Imagine how pissed I was... :explode:

    Wow! These are really funny. I wish I had something to share but I can't think of anything. Which is weird because I work graveyard shifts and get super loopy in the wee hours.

    LOL. At least you passed!

    I've put garbage in the sink and the plate and fork in the garbage, eyeliner on only one eye (my mom stopped me before I walked out of the house though lol), missed my stop on the train multiple times...the list goes on and on.

    My favorite has to be when I walked out of the apartment with no shoes on. I realized my feet felt a bit cold when I was walking in the elevator. I've also walked out in my fuzzy slippers.
