The other day I was writing a check and I completely forgot my last name.

[LaraMN]

I kept thinking it was "MN". Time for a lobotomy?

[miss_american_pie]

1. Oh that's bad

At least it wasn't your maiden name.

[LaraMN]

3. I wrote my maiden name on something, about five years after I got married.

I also keep accidentally telling people I'm 27 (I've been 28 sonce December). Perhaps I'm just exceptionally resistant to change.:P

[miss_american_pie]

6. Oh I wanna tell people I'm 27 too

I'm going to start doing that and blame you. ;)

[LaraMN]

11. If I could just stay at 28, I'd be fine with it.

I'm terrified of 29 and 30.:scared: In fact, I believe I went on a pathetic drunken rant about it to my friend, last night. :eyes:

[miss_american_pie]

14. Well...

We don't use that number that ends in "9" here.

So this year I'm 28a, and next year ... I'm not going to think about next year. :scared:

[Gormy Cuss]

17. When I was about 35, someone asked me how old I was and I said

"Seventeen." :silly: I have no idea where that came from. I didn't even like my life very much at 17!

[Dangerously Amused]

18. You're not losing it, Lara.

You're clearly a brilliant, highly skilled lateral-thinker.

Much like myself.


I'm always a year behind on my age. And I can never remember my phone number. If someone asks me for it, I'll just stand there with a blank stare for an uncomfortably long time. Not. A. Clue. And last week I filled up the tank on my Mom's car for her, but forgot to put the gas cap back on. So she's driving around the next day and her dash computer tells her there is a leak in the gas line and to get prompt attention to the matter. So she takes the car back to the dealer for computer diagnostics. Which cost nearly $100.00. And still didn't diagnose the problem. Finally the mechanic went to see if the gas cap had cracked, or otherwise developed an improper fit. ...


:banghead:

[LaraMN]

24. Ohhh, boy! We do think alike.

I cannot remember my cell phone number, and have driven off without my gas cap on. There was also that time I got out of the car during the car wash to see if I'd put the cap on after gassing up, and I got waxed.

[bigwillq]

2. LOL!

You post the funniest shit! :rofl:

[LaraMN]

5. My brain is wierd. Last night my best friend told me that I remember

"the wierdest most random details, but never the significant things." -Y'know, like my name, and stuff. :D

[bigwillq]

8. I remember weird stuff too

and then the important things...oops...the brain just can't remember! :P :) :)

[Random_Australian]

4. I keep on almost signing my name "R_A."

:blush:

[LaraMN]

9. I once said "Lol" to someone, aloud.

I thought they must think I was a crazy dork.

[Random_Australian]

10. ROTFLMAO! I almost said that!

[ZombieNixon]

13. I say OMG around a lot of my friends.

They're gamers, though, so it's pretty normal for them. I got one of them hooked on "hugh," "series" and "herk" too! :bounce: :D

[ZombieNixon]

7. No, just a sign that you walk the fine line between DU and real life.

I keep myself sane by signing my PMs with my real first name...and my last name is pretty unforgettable. :D

[LaraMN]

12. I think it's a good thing that my first name is part of my screen name.

Otherwise, I would probably have major problems, irl.

[Mutley]

15. I've said herk in real life.

:D

[ZombieNixon]

16. What was the reaction?

One of my close friends is now a bonafide herktriot. :D (He does "hugh" and "series," too. :D)

[Mutley]

19. My friend actually seemed to get it.

:rofl:

[ZombieNixon]

21. True proof of the universality of Herk.

:D

[Mutley]

26. It is.

She said, "Is that your new word for 'fuck'?" Then ROFLed. :rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. That's funny

I was writing a check the other day and I completely forgot your last name, too. What is it again?

[LaraMN]

22. You're sending me money?

Well, it's about time someone started paying me for being so perfect.
:rofl:

[gollygee]

23. ROFL

I mix up my maiden name and married name sometimes, even after 8 years of marital bliss. They have the same first two letters. That's my excuse :D

[LaraMN]

25. Sometimes people call me "Laura," and I forget that my name is "Lara".

I've heard it mispronounced so many times, I barely even notice anymore.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. I was on the phone with a DU friend of mine the other night.....

And he nearly called me CaliforniaPeggy!

Stopped in time, though......:rofl:

Sometimes I can't remember my phone number...we've only had it 4 and a half years!

[Floogeldy]

28. It is a matter of verified history that Albert Einstein did the same thing

I bow down to you. :)
