Sometimes I can be such an idiot...

This little story happened to me last week:

I was on my way to buy my school books for the upcoming semester, and I realized that I didn't have any quarters for the meters in front of the bookstore. The bank was on my way, so I stopped in a took out $1 worth of quarters - needless to say this alone got me a strange look from the teller. Anyway, so I get to UMKC, and I go inside the bookstore - completely oblivious to the fact that I didn't put any money in the meter. So there I am, browsing the bookstore, looking at books I don't even need, postponing going to the front and paying $140.00 for a book about Calculus. Anyway, while I am looking at some other books, I put my hand in my pocket and feel four quarters in there - after a second, I hit myself in the forehead and quickly paid for the Calc book and ran outside - only to find the meter maid right next to my car, with a freshly printed ticket right on my windshield. I was extremely upset - at myself - for being such an IDIOT! Oh well, I guess we all have moments like that...
