Brought a co-worker's Blu-Ray with me in the car to return it while my wife drove me to the bus stop but put it in wife's bag while I tied my shoes and then forgot it in her bag.

Ordered a porterhouse steak at a restaurant a few days ago and couldn't finish it. Was distracted by my female companion and totally forgot to bring it home with me.

Guess I'll have to go back and get another.

My new 100% cotton throw blanket smells like chemicals... I should wash it, and probably will, but I've been using so much water in the past week that I feel guilty.

Ordered $300+ video card and I have to go drive my SUV and get it because my preferred cards at online retailers are unavailable and I didn't feel like waiting.

I did have to run an errant today around lunch time. There were so many vehicles and the traffic was horrible. So many bad/clueless/ignorant drivers. Oh, and just received the notice from Blue Cross, the health care premium will go up again (no claim, nothing but 1 year older).

Bah, I have Stalker downloaded and modded, ready to play, but my Exorcist Blu-ray boxed set just showed up at home. I'm so torn as to what I should do when I get home. :(

You got the Exorcist boxset? Like, all the Exorcist movies? One good movie and then a shitload of suck? Isn't that a bit like getting an Indiana Jones boxset with Raiders of the Lost Ark and then 4 copies of Crystal Skull?

Yeah I bought the whole thing. :awe: I like shit horror movies, plus my favourite film podcast is doing a full dive into all of them and I like to watch along. I may even watch all of the crap ones in a row! :eek:
