Watching Band of Brothers and it was a bit confusing. Realised I had watched episode 1, then epsode 5, then epsiode 3. I suppose that's what they mean by the fog of war. #tv #IAmAnIdiot

I was updating some financial paperwork recently and discovered that my drivers license had expired! Because I use my passport at the airport I've not had to use my actual license for anything in a while.
Hats off to the State of Illinois for an easy and straightforward online renewal for "safe drivers." I had my license renewed and a temporary card within about 10 minutes. No standing in line or trying to get a rare appointment at the DMV for me! #iamanidiot #forgetful #illinois -

Just been to my local pool for the early bird swim and it is freezing out. Luckily I realised it is Monday and there is no early bird swim today, otherwise I would have been even colder on the way back with damp hair. 🤣 #IamAnIdiot #DontKnowWhatDayItIs

Was finishing up with making dinner and was holding a pot of boiling water with pasta in, when I called for the fam to come in and wash hands etc. Kid came past me and stupid me leant back to give him space, and I spilt boiling water straight onto my stomach.
Managed to safely put the pot down, and get my top off in seconds, and was applying a cold water soaked tea-towel straight away, but the old tum-tum got a bit of a scalding. Lost a layer of skin and it stings like hell, but luckily nothing too serious.
On a positive note at least the kids got a lesson in why mum and dad always say tell them not to mess about in the kitchen.
I mean I wasn't even fucking around, but I still found out!

So this morning I set off to go swimming and realised halfway there I’d forgotten my nose clip. Had to go back and get it. Got into the pool and realised I had left it in my pocket. Had to get out and get it. Did some lengths and stopped for a rest. Realised I had put my trunks on inside out. Previously undreamed of levels of competence. #IAmAnIdiot #swimming

When you can't find something, look and look again...
... in the same place if possible...
... especially if you are me.
I was looking for my tape measure. I looked everywhere, including twice in a drawer in my office.
Third time's the charm. I looked there again, thinking it was probably in vain, and it was under a bit of crap, true, but it wasn't flat out *hidden*.

To what extent are the Palestinians and Hama's the same thing?
To what extent are Likud, the Israelis, and Jewish people the same?
To what extent does everything agree on these things?

So... yeah... there I was importing multiple files in Audacity, and being careful to select them in order.
I've just realized that Audacity is able to order them by itself if they were numbered 0000, 0001, 0002, etc. which they were.

So being a galaxy brain I put a tarp over our trampoline for the winter to protect it from the weather.
Turns out, snow is actually frozen water and when it accumulates it can be quite heavy.
Even more fun because it's still warm out, that snow melted and then froze again so I had a pool of probably 300-400lbs of water with a 3 inch thick slab of ice floating on top.
How it didn't rip I don't know, but I'm wet and cold and my back hurts, but there's no more tarp on it now.
