The clue is in the title-I've been saying (and doing) some very funny things since getting my BFP. Thought it would brighten all our days if we shared them!!

Was there a swimming pool on the plane?? (a friend had just been on holiday on one of those new airbus planes with bars etc)

I'm just smelling it (DP asked me why I wasn't eating the hot cross buns he had just fetched for me)

Pressing the numbers on my landline phone when calling on my mobile to choose my selection on an automated call and wondering why it wasn't working (and doing it about 3 times before realising)

I'm sure everyone has a story..... Come on and share it!!!

The other day, trying to ask DH where my laptop was: where's the...where's the...where's the...internet machine??

HAHA!

I'm a web manager, which made it particularly humiliating Grin

Not something I said but I spent a good 5/6 'go's at slotting a big trolley into a row of small ones at the supermarket the other day. No one watching thank goodness!

Not said, but done- my office is on the second floor of a building. Today I walked up to the 3rd floor and wondered why my code wouldn't open the door.

I tried to 'open' a cereal/soup bowl with a tin opener. Fiddled about with it a few times, trying to figure out what was wrong, before realising it was the tin of tuna sitting next to the bowl I should have been trying to open.

Erm I would say..seriously going mad for an hour..arguing with two friends as I believed they had took my phone..I was furious only to stand up and walk off from them and for them to shout and tell me its in my back pocket. Suppose the new cushion from my extra weight on bum stopped me from feeling it.

Said to DS "can you get the cheese out of the dishwasher?"
There have also been several occasions last term that I went to collect some kids from class for their literacy lesson, and walked into the wrong classrooms...

suffering from spd i have crutches in the back seat of my car incase i need them.

i picked my mum up who noticed them and asked "oh are they your crutches", so i say "no", she asks "what are they then", me - "theyre my crutches! this went on for a few minutes while she asked me if i used them regularly then, i said no i dont need them really, she asked why they were still in the back seat, i said just in case i need to use them Confused

she just looked puzzled but hasnt let me forget it since!

ive also put the tin opener in the fridge before, cried cos i couldnt open a fray bentos tin and started using a knife when dp found me crying trying to cut it open, i ended up driving to asda to buy a tin opener and found our old 1 3 weeks later in the salad drawer (salad does not feature in my list of cravings as you can tell)

Describing someone as 'well pruned' when what I meant was 'well groomed'. Grin

I mix my words up all the time. I once called my home town "Australia" by accident, and didn't notice.

I remember sitting in a meeting at work and not being able to understand why everyone burst out laughing when I referred to something as a Task of Sisyphus. I later found out that I had said Syphillis (sp?) ....!

I also called my husband during (for him) a very important meeting and swore blind that his car wasn't working. He said I had to depress the clutch before turning the key (safety measure). I said I was depressing the clutch. He said I couldn't be. I said I was. He said I couldn't be. And so we went on ad infinitum ... until I realised that I had my foot on the brake rather than the clutch.

Ho hum.

I tried to get into someone elses car at Sainsburys last week. It was the same colour and make as mine. I tried using my remote to unlock it but it didn't work. I then tried my key in the door to no avail. The guy who was washing it at the time (no, I still hadn't twigged) looked at me like I was insane. I looked at the registration and then worked out what an idiot I'd appeared. Blush

I adamantly argued with DH that a screwdriver wasn't used for screws when in fact I meant a drill Blush

Was having a random conversation with workmates about one of their birthday's falling on Friday the 13th. I said, "Gosh, I wonder if my birthday has ever fallen on a Friday the 13th?". They responded, "When is your birthday", I replied "May the 7th". Blush
