Are you absent-minded? Share with me an embarrasing story. [View All]

I have one major personality quirk that I am notorious for, that being my absent-mindedness. Since I think too much and live much of life "in my head", I have the propensity to act in very, for lack of a more precise word, stupid ways.

I just came back from getting drive thru at Wendy's. You know how there are two windows, one for paying and one for getting your food? Well because I was so wrapped up in thought thinking about what I was going to do this afternoon, after paying for my meal, I completely bypassed the second window and forgot to get my damn food! What's worse is that I drove for a good 5 minutes before realizing it!!! Imagine how embarrasing it was for me to go back into the Wendy's and explain that I didn't get my food from drive thru because I, well, forgot.

I did get laughed at, rightfully so.

I'd like to see if anyone can top that.
