Not to say I'm getting old or anything...BUT!
WHO STOLE MY WALLET
Yesterday, when I got up, I had a scare where I thought I had lost my wallet somewhere the day before.
When I put on my short pants, there was no familiar impression from the wallet. I reached back and it wasn't there, nor was it on the other side (not likely as the shorts only have one back pocket on the right.
I was starting to panic when I realized I had the shorts on backwards. There the wallet was in front. After I turned them around, the wallet was where it needed to be. Everything was at it should be.
WHO STOLE MY CAR
Even more embarrassing was something that happened before I left for North Carolina.
After seeing "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" I went to Subway in Fox Lake intending to try the new pulled pork sandwich. After I got it, I walked out to the car and put the key in, or should I say, tried to put the key in.
I was driving the new 2011 Malibu and that key would not go in. I also have the key to the old 2003 Malibu, so even tried that one. It still wouldn't open. Then I noticed some scratches by the lock and proceeded to try to rub them off, all the while wondering why those keys wouldn't open the car.
That's when I heard a voice, looked up and saw a woman at the door of the Subway store saying that I wouldn't be able to get into that car because it was hers. That's when I looked closer at the car. Same color, but an import. She said she would be happy to trade cars if I wanted. I apologized and said I'd keep the one I had, then walked over a few spaces to the correct car.
And, the key went right in.
I sure would have been embarrassed if I had gotten arrested for trying to steal that car. What were you arrested for? Stupidity.
In my defense, though, it was the same color and I don't drive the 2011 that often.

UNIVERSAL TRUTH: How many of you like the All-State commercial where Mayhem is the GPS and tells the driver to turn and causes an accident?
