I had sincerely hoped that I would miss out on Pregnancy Brain this time since I dealt with it so badly with Orion, but as of Saturday I can no longer pretend that I'm not currently brain fried completely. So, what happened? Let me explain:
Saturday, I went to the grocery store to pick up a few things for the weekend. I took Seth's car to the store, parked, and successfully bought all my groceries with no problems whatsoever. Yay, me! I go back to the car, open the trunk, and put all the groceries in. Then, like a good patron, I walk the cart to the cart holder and put it away and return to my car. I try to unlock the door, and the doors don't seem to respond to the buttons I'm pushing. I try again, and no go..the doors will not unlock! I lock the car again, and hear the honk, so I know that it's working. I try to unlock them again, but nope, still won't unlock. I try to think, and realize that I had just opened the trunk with the same key fob, so I try to open it again, but nope...the trunk won't open either. What the hell! Now I'm getting mad. This isn't even my car and the damn thing won't work, and I'm stuck in the Hy-vee parking lot with groceries in the trunk. Grr!
So, since the car is push to start, it has the hidden key in the keyfob where you can manually unlock the car...so I take out the manual key and...wouldn't you know it, I can't open the damn door with the manual key either! What the heck!??! I lock the door again and hear the "honk" that it locks. At this point, I take out my cell phone and try to call Seth to ask him if he has had problems with this damn fob unlocking his car. As I'm calling him, I click the damn lock button like 3 times in a row..."Honk! Honk! Honk!"
It is at that point that I realize that the honk is not coming from in front of me...but instead seems to be coming from behind me...
I hang up the phone quickly before Seth can answer. I turn around and, wouldn't you know it, 2 cars away from me is Seth's car, trunk wide open, honking proudly that the doors are locked. I rush over to the car, slam the lid closed, then unlock the doors and get in before looking around to see just how many people are watching me try to break in to the wrong car.
Of course, at that point Seth was calling me back and I couldn't get away with just a "nevermind" answer...because when you're pregnant, your man gets WAY more concerned when he misses a call from you, so I told him the story and he enjoyed it so much that I thought I'd share it with all of you.
What can I say except, you're welcome?
