This truly just happened 15 minutes ago … it’s too good not to tell.
We took Danielle’s car to the supermarket, I had to mail some stuff, including a Zelda Collector’s Edition disc that I sold for $90 (it was unopened). I dropped Danielle off to get the groceries, mailed my stuff, and then went to Speedway to get some gas. I run inside to see if I can get anything with my Speedway Rewards, and I don’t want to cash anything in yet, so I go back out and start to fill a car up.
As I’m pumping the gas in, it’s clicking every 20 cents, so I’m fighting to put gas in the car. At that exact moment, a college aged girl comes running out saying “you’re putting gas in my car!”. Sure enough, I’m putting gas in her around 2000 Blue Chevy Malibu … instead of Danielle’s 1999 Blue Chevy Malibu! The difference in color was very slight, and I’m so used to putting gas on the driver’s side, that I did that out of habit.
After we realized the mix up, it was a pretty funny moment (I’m sure she was kind of freaked when she first saw it), the guy on the other side of the pump had some fun with it too. Yeah, it was a pretty stupid thing, and people who know me know well enough that sometimes, I’m horribly absentminded … this should prove it quite nicely.
Maybe I shouldn’t go watch the Bengals game … maybe I should get some sleep!
