So, apparently I am getting stupider and stupider as the days go by. I realized that I had not sent several e-mails because instead of hitting ‘send’ I was hitting the ‘back to the rest of your e-mails’ button. The extra-dumb thing is that after I realized it and sent a couple apology e-mails, I am still doing it.
Another dumb thing? Twice in the past three days I have gotten out of my truck without stomping on the emergency brake, as it my useless habit. (Sidebar: I just spelled ‘habit’ with two r’s and spellcheck corrected me. Why isn’t it habbit? Why isn’t it rabit? Sorry. Back to the story.) The problem is that I had also had forgotten to put it in gear. It wasn’t a problem when it was just rolling a bit as I got out in a parking lot, but it was a problem when I slow-motion-rear-ended Lloyd’s car in our driveway. Oops.
I’ve felt a bit scattered lately.
Is it time to go back to school? ugh.
I am right there with you. I call it “high diving board syndrome”. The high diving board seems like a good idea when you are at the bottom of the ladder or when you have just jumped off–it’s when you are standing on the board ready to dive in that it causes stress. Once you dive into the school year you will be fine.:-) However, Lloyd might want to park on down the street for a while.
Did you change email software? We’re changing over at school. I anticipate trouble.
No, I’m just not paying attention.
Kristi – yes. 🙁
Kim – That is excellent visual imagery!
Oh Lauren, I feel your pain. Maybe we should have a going away party for our brains. One Saturday at noon or noon thirty (I actually said this this past week).
Ha! I am going to try and work that into everyday conversation.
