Isn’t it amazing how our brain works, shutting out the moments we would really rather not recall? Recently I remembered probably the single most embarrassing thing I have ever done. See I was 21 with a new baby, and our local gas station allowed you to pump before paying. So I started the gas pumping, then got the baby out to go in and pay. I believe I walked around the convenience store while waiting for the gas to stop pumping, then paid, got the baby back in the car and was on my way. Somehow in this exchange I forgot a crucial step of the process, and it didn’t come to my attention until I arrived at my destination.

That’s right my dear friends, similar to the photo scene here, I forgot to take the nozzle out of my car. And to make matters worse, I didn’t realize this until I had driven over three miles and arrived at my destination where my unemployed, druken ex came out to laugh his ass off at me and call his stoned buddies out to laugh as well. At the time I wasn’t amused in the slightest, however now in the retelling of it, as my nine year old and hubby laugh until they almost wet themselves, it seems hilarious.
