Default Boneheaded Things You Have Done

I am going to put myself out there for roasting, but I admit I can be pretty flakey at times. Just today, I took a pair of socks out of the drawer and after putting one on, I couldn't find the other one. I was going bonkers looking for it and it was driving me nuts. I couldn't understand how a sock could just disappear out thin air. Eventually, I had to cut my losses and just put on another pair. When I was taking off my one sock, I realizing that I put one sock over another on the same foot.

One of my more recent favourites was about 2 weeks ago. I have a big jug of Frank's Red Hot that has been in the cupboard for a while. I took it out to use some, but it is really old and I noticed the colour wasn't quite as vibrant anymore. I opened it to give it a smell and taste, it seemed fine. I thought, I better check the internet to see if this stuff actually goes bad. Sometimes things that have a "best before" date don't actually go bad, but it is more about how the product looks over time. Given how acidic hot sauce is, I figured that was probably the case here. I went to the computer to look it up and got sidetracked (likely on CP), but eventually got around to looking it up. People were saying it was fine to consume, but just to shake it up well. I went back to the kitchen and grabbed the jug and just started shaking it like crazy. Like in a really violent and sarcastic way. It was after the 3rd shake that I realized that I didn't put the lid back on. I was covered in hot sauce, there was hot sauce on the floor, on the ceiling, on the appliances, on my phone, on my VR headset that was charging near by. Two weeks later, and I am still finding splatter in areas. To make it worse, my wife just happened to walk by when I did it and she thought that I was going insane or something.

A really minor one, but recent. I lost my house keys for a couple of weeks and eventually found them in the freezer. My best guess is that when I got home, I was in a rush to put the groceries away (likely because I wanted to check CP), and still had them in my hand when I started putting stuff away and just dropped them.

Anyone got any good ones? Please tell me I am not the only one prone to being a bonehead.
