So, my calendar was marked 'DST' on Sunday, Oct 28th and I turned my clocks back an hour on Sunday evening.

When I turned on my TV, computer etc., on Monday morning, I was an hour behind the rest of the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The note was to Dump Sister's Trash (she was out of town)

Doofus of the month;(

I accidentally got in the eastbound Lane of an interstate in town and it took me 20 more minutes than it should have to get to where I was originally going to go compared to if I gotten in the westbound Lane.

On the other hand, the smartest thing I did this week was to walk out of the office yesterday morning, hop on my bike and do 110 miles of country roads. It was a perfect day.

If I don’t call myself mushbrains at least 3 times each day it’s a slow day.

I paid for my Mcdonald’s then drove off without the food.
I was in the car, decided to go back in the house to change my pants and came out wearing just my boxers.
Gheeze, I hate getting old.

I’m old too. It would take a week to list all the dumb things I’ve already done today.

A few days ago, I tried to reason with a leftist.

It’s hard to find something to do that’s stupider than that.

I was on our boat last week. Woke up, turned on the coffee pot and went out into the cockpit. Usual routine. Came back down, got my morning meds, and looked at the coffee pot. No coffee! Realized I had put the coffee in the night before but no water. Lol

Not so much this week but a couple of weeks ago I got, came out to the kitchen, turned on the Keurig, put a k-cup in, waited til the lights blinked, push the right button and went of to take glucose reading. When I came back I looked down and wondered who stole my coffee cup and why was there coffee all over the counter.

I signed back onto Facebook after years of being off.
I saw a message from a relative that there was a death in the family and I needed to make contact because of an inheritance.
But the message was a forward from an attorney so it seemed to me like she was hacked by an internet scammer.
After messaging hello to people, who had been sending me many messages over the years for contact...
I told my wife look at that, she been hacked by an internet scammer.
But it turned out to be for real! Which my relative assured me of.
For the past year they been trying to reach me through Facebook.
Then I called my uncle in London.
He told me I been costing him money because he had to pay lawyers while not collecting the inheritance.
They were about to give up on me.
I apologized and thanked him.
I said if it is more than 1,000 euros then he should send it to my FIL because there are angry people suing me who think I owe them money.
He asked if I need money.
I told him no we are alright.
He said: Thomas if you need money tell me now.
I have not seen him since my father died and not talked to him for years.
I said yea we need money. My wife had serious legal issues.
He confirmed my address and is sending money - and an inheritance.

ROFL!

I’m only 50!

I’m SURE I will have bested that story soon enough!

I will blame it on pretty bad brain injury about 12ish years ago.

But truth is I was always a little bit in my own world :)

I work in a Drive-Thru and I’ve seen people do this. It happens more frequently than you would imagine.

I really hate that we have to do this time change every six months.

Animals don’t have a problem with sunrise and sunset.

Nutty idea should be stopped - for folks like me;).

I HAVE THE WINNER!!!!

YEARS AGO...maybe 15..

I was at work and we were all just chit chatting and I was leaning over a cubicle arm and my side was REALLY burning.

I attributed it to my GERD until someone told me my shirt looked like it was on fire!

A holiday candle had burned through my undershirt AND dress shirt and marked my skin!!!
