Jeremy's "Patrick Star" moment of 2009

Let's face it, I'm not exactly the brightest crayon in the box. I certainly have my "not-so-smart" moments on a weekly basis. Well, this year I did two very brainless acts that really stood out among them all. One being the time I hung out with my friend Kristine and I grabbed the wrong key to my apartment and got us locked out >_< which was one very embarrassing adventure especially since I had a such a crush on her at the time! The second most idiotic moment happened on Monday morning, and let me tell you this one takes the cake. I had went over to Bobby's house on Sunday night, and so the last time I went over my wallet had fallen behind one of his dressers and I was looking all over his room like crazy. This time I made sure I was going to keep track of all my shit so that doesn't happen again. Before we go to bed I put all of my things that I need for the next day including my wallet in a brown Trader Joes bag. Since it's Monday Bobby has school at SDSU so I wake up around 6:30 and start to get ready. I head to bathroom, brush my teeth, wash my face, change my clothes and return to the room. I grab my Zune and then look in my bag for my wallet. It's not in there. I'm already freaking out because I KNOW I put it in my bag before I went to went. I start searching frantically all over Bobby's room for it and I cannot find it anywhere. At this point, I'm really mad at myself because I tried so hard to avoid losing anything. It's time to leave and I ask Bobby's younger siblings Angie and Joey if they can keep an eye out for it, which of course they say ok and knowing them I can count them to do so. Bobby and I get dropped off at the trolley station and as we wait around I ask him for a couple bucks for the trolley since I don't have my wallet. Bobby has no cash, so he calls him Mom and asks if I can borrow a couple dollars. Which is great because I don't want to risk boarding the trolley with out a ticket and then its the one day security actually ask for tickets. So Bobby's Mom comes back a couple minutes later and he gets the $2.50. We had missed the trolley and I feel bad because I'm making Bobby run a little late, but of course being the best bud that he is, doesn't mind and says its ok. I get my ticket and we hop on the next trolley. We're both listening to our zunes when I decide to replay a song (Alejandro by Lady GaGa). As I put my hand in my pocket I feel something else. It's my wallet. I let out a major sigh of relief which is then followed quickly by a hot rush of embarrassment. I then take it of my pocket and show it to Bobby. I don't even say anything. He looks at it. He looks at me. He shakes his head in disappointment. We both laugh about it, but I feel like a total dork. I must have sub-consciously grabbed it from my bag and put it in my pocket when I was getting ready in the morning. All that trouble and it was in my pocket the entire time. Fail Jeremy Fail! I'm so giving myself the "Worgin Fail Award" of the month. Bobby and I always compare our friendship to SpongeBobs and Patricks, and let me tell you, I definitely see a lot of my self in Patrick Star. 2010 is almost here, so I'm definitely going to try to keep focus and pay attention to every little thing the coming year! In anycase, see ya later!
