I AM SO STUPID!

This is such a fitting title for my official 100th post.

I am so stupid though, honestly - that is the truth. In case you doubt, let me share with you the reason why.

My masters class tonight was individual meetings with my professor to discuss our horrid research papers. I scheduled mine so I could go after my staff meeting at school (which I usually miss because of class). Well, the staff meeting was cancelled so I was stuck in Saginaw for 2.5 hours with nothing to do. Anyways, to make a long story even longer I ended my Saginaw exploring adventures with a quick supper stop at Tropical Smoothie cafe where I happily drank my Peaches n' Silk smoothie as I drove to SVSU.

Come on people - this is me -- did you expect this to be short and sweet?

Okay - so I juggled all my stuff out of the car and went inside (keep in mind, the smoothie was the most important thing). Had my meeting blah, blah, blah. Went to leave.

couldn't find my keys ANYWHERE!

Searched through my purse, emptied the contents of it all over the stairs at SVSU and still couldn't find them. Needless to say, I am panicking.

Finally I went to my car - assuming I managed to somehow leave them on my front seat, hopefully under my school bag. I get to my car and see that my keys are STILL IN THE IGNITION! I was so worried about my smoothie, I never TOOK THEM OUT OF THE IGNITION! This is in Saginaw people! High crime problems - yes, I was in an SVSU parking lot but near the back of it, not by a lamp post, and I haven't seen a security guard on the campus in well over a year - especially by the education building which is isolated from the rest of campus.

So, what can I say. I am stupid! But luckily I have a higher power watching over me and keeping me safe, even when I do stupid things!


PS: Purple for your 100th post is a must!

    Oh, don't feel stupid. I'll share stupid with you. I came home from school yesterday to find that I never shut my door when I left. It wasn't standing wide open, and it was closed, but it wasn't shut. That's stupid :)

    Happy 100th Post!

    I guess stupid people hang out together. :)

    I've lost count of the number of times I've left my keys in my car, locked my keys in my car, and once I even locked my keys in my car and the car was still running. Not to mention the endless times I've had to actually had to manually lift the garage door because I locked our house keys inside. Yeah, I take the cake on stupid

    Congratz on the 100th post! Way to keep it up! I'm getting complacent with my blog.
    I'm fortunate I haven't forgotten my keys anywhere lately, although I did leave my wallet in my car today.

    Haha. You aren't stupid Janelle. It took you almost 30 years of being alive to do that once. I did that two years ago already. I worked for four hours with my car running the entire time. But, I actually had locked all the doors also, using the lock on the door, and I had left my lights on. Now that's stupid. And I'm only 18. Think of all of the wonderfully stupid moments I have to look forward to for the rest of my (hopefully) long life.
