Cyclops Apr 2020 8:00pm, 26 Apr 2020 4,030 posts	0 Cyclops Filled an empty milk container with water to water the hanging basket while the kettle boiled. Got to the back door and realised the kettle had boiled already so went back and poured the hot water into my mug, adding 'milk' from the container in my hand.
Diogenes Apr 2020 9:19am, 27 Apr 2020 47,943 posts	0 Diogenes I run a bowl of hot water to shave in without any hesitation. After shaving I rinse my face with water running from the cold tap. I then go to brush my teeth and can't remember which tap is which. This has happened twice in the last few days.

Going back a few pages ref WFH/WTF confusion I keep getting g confused when there is mention (while WFH) that there is an issue with the VPN which I keep reading as problems with VPL which is a whole other issue 😂

Fragile Do Not Bend May 2020 3:10pm, 1 May 2020 5,855 posts	0 Fragile Do Not Bend In the time it took to open my to do list on my tablet, I forgot what task I was going to put on there. I’ve since added a few tasks and I’m not sure if I remembered the one I forgot and added it, or whether I still need to try and remember it.

This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
