Okay, not too sure if this is a blonde thing or getting older thing. I came out of a job interview and went to get into my car. I took my key and put it in the door lock and tried to turn the key wouldn't work. I then tried flipping the key and still didn't work. I looked at the key for a couple minutes and it was the right key so I tried again with no success. Turns out it was the wrong car. My car was about five cars down. All I can say is good thing the alarm didn't go off.
that happened to my mom one time. She pushed the unlock button on her key ring and it unlocked SOMEONE ELSES car.. she tried getting in and i was like, mom this isn't your car..lol.. Funny thing is, the car that unlocked was the same make, model and color as my moms car..

At least the key didn't work because I would have noticed it was the wrong car probably halfway home. The funny thing is, I would give my mom a hard time when she would do the same thing.

It is also a better thing that the key did not start the car. I got stopped once many years ago. The officer said that my car was stolen. I said no, this is my car and it certainly is not stolen. It turns out that the DMV gave me the plate that was meant for someone else.

I did that at college once....The worst part is the person who owned the car had to come up to me and say "your car is over there, I just tried to get in yours."

You know you're getting old when, you have to make a kind of groaning like noise any time you sit down or stand up.

When all the things you and your friends used to do are now the things "those crazy kids" do.

When the term "party all night" makes you groan and whine because you want to be home by 9.30pm.

obviously not as big of a problem now that you can look down at your cell and see who it is, but it still happens to me here and there :p

Or the key to the church, or the key to the other door lock... I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that.

With me it's the home/church keys usually. Maybe I'm at church so much that it's my home away from home... I dunno, but I'm always trying to use the church key on the home door or the home key on the church door.
