| how dippy are you???... Posted: 1/2/2007 2:31:33 AM | We'll have to vote you know - but what would be a dippy enough prize?
The children simply don't want to know how I got my car keys caught in my knicker elastic in the carpark at the supermarket. I do know not to hold my keys in the same hand as the letters being posted, but I forgot to change hands while surreptitiously hauling up my new knickers that went straight into the bin when I got home.
Note: it's a good idea to check the surrounding cars are empty when trying the above manoeuvres. They were.
Another day I paid $100 for a nice man to take my keys out of my hand, put them in the ignition and start the car - but that's another story. | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 5/25/2007 7:47:08 AM | The kids are tired of me driving over roundabouts now...the youngest the other day asked me when I was going for my 4WD lessons...
Well son, I don't want to be a complete idiot when I get there, I'll have to read the instruction manual first and find out where the switch is for the 4WDriving...
Oh mum, you mean this button on the dashboard that SAYS - 4WD? | |
|
| how dippy are you???... Posted: 5/25/2007 5:52:55 PM | ok - lost glasses on the top of head - check lost car in the carpark - check (scary because we don't have multi-level carparks here) driving over roundabouts - check
Stopping at green lights.
I have walked out of shops with items before paying, scuttled back in before anyone noticed. I have thought I locked my keys in the car, called someone to collect me then realised keys were in handbag (well, there are a lot of compartments in my bag).
Turn up for appointments on wrong day or at wrong time, even though it is written on my calendar.
Sigh - the list goes on and on | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 5/26/2007 12:29:36 AM | Using a work car many moons ago, they were all white at the time - I parked in work a carpark - ended up with 3 cars at 0800 as it was before work started. So I thought I knew where I parked the car to the side of the middle section to get out first at 1500.
There was fire at our building opposite and another 90 cars were moved over for safety which meant we had about 100 white Fords all lined up and all the same model. I looked for my car and could not locate it before recalling the 1st aid kit was on the front seat - like about 30 others I walked past.
I then got the key out (no remote control back them) and look at the key tag - rego number was written there. This had been done as too many people were losing their cars and the keys as well. About 4 months later we got all different coloured cars as the white cars did not resell too well. I was very happy then. | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 5/26/2007 2:00:24 AM | Hmmmm, let's see...... check on almost all of the dippy stories so far BUT I do have a few others. Last weekend I went to Brissy and stayed with a friend. Whilst she was still asleep I got up to have coffee on the balcony and then decided to watch a movie. I was hungover to buggery and sat and watched the movie.........about an hour later my friend wakes up and walks out and asks 'why are you wearing your sunglasses inside?' We laughed so hard for about an hour over that one. Another time I was making salt and pepper prawns and was tossing the prawns in the egg when my friend asked if I was actually going to shell the prawns first......... I decided my wine wasn't cold enough when someone suggested I put ice in it. I asked 'how am I going to get the ice into the bottle? I am pretty sure I have earned my 'dippy' badge!! | |

This morning I got a shout from a lady across the road who accidently locked herself out of her house and was in a t-shirt as she got the paper off the lawn. It was cold or she was happy to see me (cold I think), I just went around to the back door to see if she had an open window and walked through her house to open the front door. She said "Oh yeah I was hanging the washing out and must have left it open for the next load" and slammed the front door shut by accident."
Yes she had fair hair too .............. (notice I did not say any light colour ?) | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 6/15/2007 12:27:55 AM | I'm really good at trying to walk through doorways before opening doors.
I drove a friends car to a shopping centre and couldn't remember where I had parked it. I walked around pressing the remote control at every blue car I could find as discreetly as possible.
Many moons ago, when on the way to a camping spot, I stopped to fill up a gas bottle. I just happened to glance in the back of the van only to see an empty baby seat. I'd locked the house up and driven off with the baby still in his cot fast asleep! Not one of the other kids said anything, but they've never let me live it down!
A few years later I forgot the pick the same child up from swimming and he had to get the local police to ring me.
Another time I lost another baby in a lift when visiting the big smoke.
I've also managed to go camping in winter with no blankets!  | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 6/16/2007 8:06:49 PM | Because it's winter and my life is once again revolving around the evening fire, I remembered something dippy I did a couple of winters ago. There was a cardboard box full of twigs I had collected for firestarting, and I had popped it up on top of the wood fire heater (one of those glass-doored jobbies) during the day to clean the floor. That night I had a fire going, using wood from the previous years pruning of some fir trees, which crackles so beautifully that I was sitting on the floor in front of the fire, absolutely entranced, listening to the sounds, staring at the flames, with the glass door open. When I finally shut the door and stood up, the twigs in the box on top of the unit were on fire....I guess all the popping wood had sent a spark out and up to it. Aaaagh! I had to get out of my house so I grabbed the box, which was also starting to catch on fire, and ran down the hallway toward the front door with it held out in front of me. But the front door was shut, and I needed both hands for the box. I ran back down the hallway with the flaming box of twigs (my dogs curiously watching this mad behaviour) but the back doors were also shut and bolted. I was momentarily stumped as to what to do to get this thing out of my house before the whole box disintegrated in flames and burnt my house down...then it clicked that I had already run a bath, so there was water...so I ran into the bathroom and dumped the whole flaming mess into my lovely bubble bath I had been so looking forward to having. Nice one.
driven off with the baby still in his cot fast asleep Hey Frankie, you used to be able to get a t-shirt with a drawing of a woman on it with a speech bubble saying "Oh my god, I left the baby on the bus." Your kids should get you one to really rub it in.  | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 6/16/2007 8:42:28 PM | If I put something in the fridge, and I need to take it with me at some point, then I leave my car keys in the fridge with the item. Hasn't let me down yet! | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 6/16/2007 8:50:56 PM | ^^^ I actually know a lot of people that do that DestinezeDream, so you're alright 
If you want dippy - how's this?
The other day I parked my car in front of a cafe and went off to the shops. When I got back to the car, I kept pressing the button on my keys to unlock it (central locking), yet NOTHING was happening. I pressed the button a number of times, beginning to fear my car was stuffed, when I looked up and noticed roof racks where I have never had roof racks before.
Then, as I pressed the button one more time, I saw a car (about three parks away) with it's lights flashing to indicate it had been unlocked, and a group of spunky young men sitting at the cafe laughing. That's when I remember I had parked in front of the cafe and my car doesn't have roof racks. How embarrassing.  | |

| how dippy are you???... Posted: 6/16/2007 10:57:07 PM | Oh Boho, not in front of spunky men!!
I remember once when I was in N.Z on the farm and mum and I went into town in my uncle's car. Mum and I parked near the front of the post office and went inside. I wanted to go back to the car as there was a line up and asked mum for the keys to which she replied that the car was unlocked. I went outside and it was locked so I went back in for the keys and mum said, once again, that it was unlocked. I went back outside and seen that yep, it's locked alright, and I noticed that the front drivers window was down a little so I stuck my arm in and unlocked it. I got in the car and after a few seconds I though to myself, oh crap, this isn't the right car. Right on cue a massive maori came bolting out of a shop yelling 'hey, that are you doing in my car!?' Needless to say I went bright red, mumbled an excuse and high-tailed it out of there! | |
