Hah?

I went to the post office before work yesterday to mail out the Coach bag to Giveaway winner Jasmyn.  While I was there I bought a book of stamps.

Did you know that if you peel off the divider pieces like this

then you can fold up your stamps into a neat little book like this?

You neva know that hah!?  Pretty neat yeah!   Well anyway, so I'm slowly walking to my car, peeling off the pieces like how I like it, when I glance toward my car.  What I see stops me in my tracks.  There, sitting in the front passenger seat is Kona!  Whatda . . . ??  Okay, I know that I've been forgetful lately and that I do have some major senior moments . . . but I remember distinctly that I neva decide at the last minute to take Kona to work with me.

I'm like totally confused. I walk closer.  I look at the car . . . yup, white Rav 4. That's my car.  I walk closer.  I look at the dog (who's like smiling real happy now) . . . looks like Kona.  What's going on??? 

By now, I'm pretty much right in front of the car. So I look at the license plate.  Ohhhhh . . . so it's not my car.  I look at the dog.  Ohhhh, it's a golden retriever . . . but it's not Kona.  (Hey, there's a glare on the windshield, okay).   So where's my car then?  I turn around.  It seems that in my confusion, I had actually walked past my car and straight to the one with the dog in it.  Aiyaiyai. 

And here are a couple more of my senior moments:

I went to the eye doctor.  He dilated my eyes.  I just hate that.  After my exam I decided to go to the restroom before leaving.  I took the restroom key off its holder that's on the reception desk.  When I got back, I tried and tried but just couldn't get the key back onto the holder. After struggling for awhile, the receptionist finally said, "Umm . . . you're trying to get your own car keys onto the holder." 

Final one.  My working place is having a movie day for the employees.  They're renting a theater one morning for our exclusive use.  An e-mail was sent out notifying us of the details. So, I'm talking to CQ and some other coworkers and I say, "It's gonna be at Ward right?  So where is that?  At Dole?"

HOLY MOLY!
