Do you ever have those moments when say to yourself “Wow I
really am the biggest dork. I really didn't think that
I was, but today has just proved it”? No, just me? Lucky me I guess. We've all
had those moments when we make a mistake and shake our heads at how absent
minded we are or how illogical our actions were.
Today though, ah today takes
the cake.
I am a key holder where I work and tonight was my night to
close. I get to work, the shift goes well and then I realise right at the very
end that I have locked my keys in my car which
A. means I can’t get home and
B. means I can’t lock the building.
That was the ‘oh crap I’m a dork’ moment. So I send
all the staff home and call the manager, no answer. Great. So I call another
key holder who (bless her darling, wonderful, sweet soul) gets out of bed, puts on
regular clothes, picks up my husband so that I can get into my car and
then drives back (as in she was already there today) to work to help me out of this pickle that I am in. Did I
mention she is lovely? So she and Mr. Sollywood show up and as I am leaving the
building Mr. Sollywood goes ‘hey where is your coat?’ And that is when I
realised that I am indeed the biggest dork alive because I had completely
forgotten that I had a coat and in it were of course my freaking keys. If you
are going to mess up, and inconvenience everyone in your life, you should of
course do it for no reason at all. Because that my friend is how you earn the
title of Biggest Dork Alive. Or as someone on Web 2.0 calls us: King Dork. All Hail King of the Dorks.
That is so funny! I mean, it obviously wasn't at the time, but that must have been completely embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteHahah a little embarrassing but hilarious! All the best stories tend to be that way!
