that I'd fail at writing my fail post ;) failception
And yes it took me about a week or longer to write this follow-up although it had been circling my mind the day after my last post :D
Anyway the funniest fail of the day when I managed to lock myself out of my flat was not that can you believe it or not. While I was doing my shopping at co-op where I never take a basket because
- I sincerely believe that I do not need it since I don't really need to buy more than ~3 things (yep you guessed it - a failure on my part every damn time, because obviously I end up finding loads of stuff that I just need to have! - once I broke a yoghurt because it fell from my overfilled arms :D oops Keep calm and pretend nothing happened... (I hate these kind of customers :P ) )
- Where the hell are they anyway????? I never notice the baskets anywhere when I'm entering the store!
Then when I had gotten everything I needed + loads of stuff that I didn't need I went to the till and put my things on the counter. Shortly realising that the reason I went there was to get sponges and bleach... yeah well looking at my stuff on the counter - surprise surprise no sponges nor a bleach. So obviously I started to take my stuff off the counter to go and find the sponges, while doing that I noticed that the guy in front of me was laughing!!!! No, not just discreetly smiling but full on laughing! The bastard! :D (I would've done the same if I'd been in his position). So I muttered that I'd forgotten something and ran off, later thinking maybe my way of saying that was too harsh, I kind of snapped at him, but hey! He was laughing at me and it came as a surprise so I panicked and needed to explain myself :D And then I had to lurk in the aisles (it took me 5 seconds to find the sponges) and wait for him to leave, because I didn't want run in to him again :D
Talking about shopping fails, I once decided to cook pasta but I didn't have pasta nor eggs (I fry them with eggs) and needed to go to the store for them. Since Lidl has recently changed their product placement on the shopfloor I could not find the pasta where it used to be before, I kept calm and thought never mind, I'll find it eventually. Got my eggs, milk, vegetables + all other random shit that just caught my eyes. Had to buy a freaking carrier bag as well, cause yet again I sincerely believe that I'm going to buy few things that'll fit in my bag and do not bring an extra plastic bag. I'm wrong every time -.-
Finally got home, chilled a bit from the exhausting shopping trip and thought right I'll start cooking then. The water was already boiling when I noticed that I do not have anything to boil since I'd forgotten all about the stupid pasta!!!!!!!! Yeap, that's the main reason I went to the shop and that's the thing I didn't get! U serious brain? Why oh why?
I remembered another funny fail today. It was last summer when there was just a couple of us here (my friends I mean) and it was boring as ... So one day me and a friend went to Morrisons to buy some random crap and then decided to go up the other hill that's a bit out of town. Luckily we didn't have any grocery bags with us at the time :D Mõeldud - tehtud. It took us a long time to find the path that'd actually take us up there, we considered climbing over fences at one point but finally found the footpath. Then we saw a trail that seemed to be going straight up hill (well not straight but the official path took us around the hill, creeping up slowly). So we decided to go there. Bad idea, it was muddy - my friend was wearing white tights :D At one point it started raining slightly - not too bad but the path was horrible and muddy and we just hung on to tree branches for our lives in order not to slip :D But we got half way up the hill when a wild fence appeared. The fudge?!?!? Btw we were starting to doubt if the path we'd taken was really a proper path... Looked a bit funny at times but no turning back now, so we continued next to the fence hoping to find our way out (going back would've been more horrible at that point). Sidenote we were screaming a lot and I think at one point I actually slipped and fell :D but since we had drinking a bit beforehand - we were not drunk! everything was funnier :D
Finally after two hours of torture we found our way out and continued on the footpath we originally decided to take before the aforementioned shortcut to nowhere. Got up the hill, admired the breathtaking view etc. And when we came back dow we decided to look how much time it would take to get from the point where we came out of the woods (shortcut) to the start of the shortcut hell. Take your guesses! Remember we spent about 2 hours just screaming and slipping and tripping and cussing and hating every single thing about Aber til we finally found the footpath again. Go on have a guess! I can bet you that your assumption is not even close to the actual time ;)
Time for the thruth - if we hadn't been trying to be smart and taken the shortcut for two hours, the length of the shortcut would've taken us exactly 4 minutes if we'd stick to the actual footpath. Yeah 4 minutes!!!! 4 freaking minutes equals 2 hours! Genius :D :D :D
Ttyl ;)
