Have you ever used something wrong?

Hi hiddenwing, Now that you ask yes i have last week i was here on mylot i was writeing a discussion. I picked up my backberry storm phone and went to take a bite out of it i confuesed it with my sandwach haha.

I know I have often picked up my hair conditioner before the shampoo which I think can be an easy thing to do as usually when one washes their hair they don't have glasses on and the makers of these things sometimes only have small writing on the bottles, you would think they would take that into consideration wouldn't you...

one time my husband and i are going out and i'm all dressed, but when i'm already outside and ready to go, i found out that i didn't wear my shoes...i'm still on my slippers! what a...huh! my husband laughs at me! and my friend also do something wrong, he puts iodized salt in making peanut butter instead of sugar! and the peanut butter that's so salty ends up in trash! funny...that we do things like this! :-)

hehe I have done that before, I used hair conditioner as a shampoo and I didn't like it because it will make my hair too oily... and I have used face cleaner as lotion before and when I realized it, I was out on the car already...

I did that mistake once. Well I took liquid soap instead of shampoo to wash my hair. I didn't realize that until I finish doing it. My hair feels different, oily and not soft. So I read the bottle and finally realized my mistake :)

Yes it is very aggravating. I sometimes put my shampoo into my washcloth and used it as body wash and use by body wash as shampoo; not realizing this until i'm about to get out.

I am not a morning person and when I used to go down for breakfast many a time I would actually put coffee granules into my cereal bowl and pour the milk into my coffee mug, well I never have milk in my coffee always take it black! My deodorants used to be the same size as my hair gel when it was in my teens and I lost count the amount of times I would spray deodorant in my hair! I got fed up afterwards so I found a deodorant that was a different size!

My ex husband and I went to a restaurant one time... it was just a fast food place where we ordered hot dogs and fries. We started to eat and he asked me if my fries tasted "different"... I said no, they were fine. He said, "They must do something different with the oil at this place... my fries actually taste sweet." At that point, I started to laugh SO hard. I looked on the table and, sure enough, he had grabbed a packet of sugar from the dispenser instead of a packet of salt and sprinkled the sugar all over his fries. He was so embarrassed that he sat there and ate them all anyway LOL!

I try to laugh at myself and forget such mishaps. Thus, I can think of only one example at this time; I've washed my hair with conditioner more than once. Since then, I've tried to buy a different brand of shampoo or at least, one in a differently shaped bottle. Not being able to wear one's glasses in the shower can bring surprises.

Hey hiddenwing! Yes, I have definitely pulled things out that I thought was one thing and it turned out to be something completely different and it could have been a disaster if I didn't finally take a look before using the item! lol Sometimes I am just not paying enough attention to the things that I am doing and all sorts of strange things happen! I can get myself into all sorts of messes if I'm not really careful! I have pulled things out of my purse thinking that they are one thing and they turn out to be something else and that alone can be quite embarrassing!

There has been many such times when I wanted to do something but did something else mainly because I was thinking about something else. There was once when, I woke up from sleep and took the toothpaste and instead on taking the tooth brush I took something else and put the paste on it. After sometimes I realised what I had done. These mistakes can happen to anyone when we don't pay attention.

reminds me... recently i had a water bottle in my hand and was just taking a sip when my cellphone rang. Instead of picking up my phone, i took it towards my mouth thinking its my water bottle and the bottle towards my ear thinking its my phone.. hahaha, of course i dont need to tell you that my ears were full of water the next moment!! :)

Ha .. yes I recently reached for my aerosol deodorant and instead of spraying the deodorant under my arms I had grabbed my hairspray . ugh . so I went right back into the shower for who wants their armpits sticking together all day!

When someone swapped the placements of my shampoo and my st. Ives soap, I instinctively grabbed the soap for my shampoo. But I didn't get too far - the shampoo bottle is bigger than the st. Ives soap bottle. As you can probably tell, I take my showers in the morning. :P

The most memorable thing i made a mistake with was when i baked apple crisp on my own for the first time as a teenager. It looked so yummy and nice...until we bit into it. I had used 1 cup of salt instead of 1 cup of sugar. Needless to say we didnt eat that apple crisp!
