This is not the first ditsy event for the year, despite the fact that it's the first one I've posted about. This is because I'm testing out the theory that if I say I'm ditsy will I be more ditsy? But quite obviously I'm wasting my time being all psychological, because I did something ditsy any way.
So friends of mine are holding a barbeque birthday party in the park across the road from their house. They have invited lots of people including their neighbours. After a few glasses of champers (and I'm not blaming this on the alcohol) I need to go to the loo/visit the smallest room in the house. So I cross the road and head towards my friends' house, which is in a row of three pretty much identical houses (and I'm not blaming this on the fact that they all look the same). I'm inside the house and walking up the stairs. I'm preoccupied thinking about how I am going to ask one of the children who was watching videos come play cricket in the park.
Then a voice says "oh oh..."
I don't think much of it because it's one of the neighbours at the barbeque.
There are kids there but I can't see the one I was going to ask to play cricket.
All of a sudden I realise that the place looks rather different than what I remember. (and I'm not blaming this on the fact that I haven't been to my friends' house much - because I have been there... a lot)
Yes, I've actually entered the neighbour's house.
Blush. (Although I did contemplate asking whether I could use their bathroom, after all I knew whereabouts it would be, and by then I was just short of bursting)Labels: ditsy event of the day |
