How come I am so silly?

Perhaps you, like I, imagine yourself to be a perfectly competent adult. Until, that is,  you remember all the silly things you have said and done. To make you feel better, feel free to peruse my personal list of incompetence and pure bad luck:

  • Announcing to a room full of people that George Michael was NOT gay.....the day before he was caught exposing himself to a MALE policeman in a public toilet.

  • Complaining to friends about the audacity of the airline company, which charged passengers for each of their legs - only to realise that the "legs" they were charging for, were in fact different legs of the journey...
 
  • Using the train toilet and watching in horror as the door slid open, revealing a load of fellow travellers staring in at me. That will teach me to assume the electronic door was locked - clearly technology and I don't mix.
 
  • Using a heart monitor to listen to our unborn baby's heartbeat and happily sharing this miracle with the grannies. We later learnt that we had been listening to my artery.
 
  • Repeatedly hitting the parking bollards in our local supermarket, and, once, managing to hit a parked scooter in the same car park - well, it was in a turning space and luckily there was no damage. I notice the scooter is now parked elsewhere!

Nobody is perfect.  If you'd like to share your own imperfections then please feel free to add your comments.
