I was planting bulbs upside down for three years before my neighbor walked over

I noticed my daffodils kept coming up barely blooming and looked all twisted, but I figured it was just bad soil. Then Mrs. Peterson from two doors down watched me plant a round of tulips and asked why I was putting the pointy side down. Has anyone else done something embarrassing like that after gardening for ages?

Five times in one week Ive put my coffee cup on the roof of my car and drove off.

Started doing stuff like that too and now I just accept it as part of my brain's wiring. I mean, it's like my hands are on autopilot while my head is busy thinking about what's for dinner or if I need gas. The plant thing is funny because you kept doing it for three years straight, which is solid commitment at least. Maybe it's just me but I think we all have these little blind spots where our brain just skips over the basic stuff because it's so routine.
