Stupid is...

I'll be the first to admit that I've done some pretty stupid things in my time.

Reversing my Dad's car down the driveway with the drivers door open and subsequently hitting a tree and bending said door back the wrong way leaps to mind.

As does the time I stuck a baby's "sucker" toy (one of those things that sticks to their high chair and they can bat it about) to my head, only to pull it off leaving a perfect circle of bruise in the middle of my forehead - all a few hours before a meeting with a major client.

Today hasn't quite reached those levels, but I think I will file it under "It seemed like a good idea at the time...".

The hem of my trousers had come loose, you see. With my suit not being of the finest quality, I just thought I could fuse the two areas of material together with superglue (C'mon! It says Kwik Fix on the tube!). Not only did it not work, the glue quickly dried and formed a large, and let's face it: suspicious-looking, mark that has probably ruined my trousers beyond all economic repair. It also went all over my fingers giving me a second skin for a time.

Oh well, lives and learns dontcha?
