Subject: "I smell funny."

I was in a hurry this morning, overslept after a 15 mile run last night. Insanely fast shower, threw on clothes, out the door.  Still 15 minutes late to work.  On the way to work I start thinking that something doesn't smell right.  Why??  I put on body glide instead of deodorant.

Better than an unnamed BT friend on our HIM relay race morning used athlete foot creme instead of toothpaste

lol... I've done the same thing, but immediately realized my mistake and covered the body glide over with real deodorant.

What really sucks is to make the reverse mistake, which I've also done.  Then my crotch gets all chafed, but at least it smells like "arctic breeze" or whatever.

I have a travel-size tube of toothpaste and a small tube of antibiotic cream in my travel bag.  I had the cap off the cream and toothbrush in hand before I realized *something* wasn't right.

LOL! I poured orange juice into my coffee this morning. Glad I noticed it before I took a sip.

My worst was walking towards my front door with my car keyless clicker aimed at the door...repeatedly pressing the button expecting the front door to blink and unlock.

Oh man.  I"ve done that.  The only thing that clued me in was the sound of my car doors unlocking repeatedly behind me.

I didn't do it but feared that several times on my last work trip since i had them in the same pocket in my backpack. That would be so gross to actually do.

I have a box for the athlete's foot cream on my bed side table and every time my GF comes over she freaks and thinks its a condom box and I am cheating.. its been going on for weeks at this point I haven't thrown it out since its just funny

I bought some BodyGlide one time, came home, next day applied it liberally down there before my bike ride... after a few seconds, felt a warm, then warmer, then hot feeling... think Yosemite Sam saying "My britches are burnin'!!  My britches are burnin'!!"

I had bought the WarmFX Anti-Pain balm by mistake.

Anti-Pain??  Um, not in this case.

Happened to me too. I wish my T1/2 times were as good that day I ran into the shower.

reminds me of when I was in high school and talking on the phone a lot. I just got off of the phone and my step dad yelled my name in the house, "Mark." I responded with "hello." I caught hell for that.

Sounds like a certain person on our RAGBRAI Trip just recently.  Came out of the tent, bent over and she said "FIRE IN THE HOLE!"

Took us a while to stop laughing before we could actually mount up and start riding.

I had a friend once that mixed up his deodorant, and toothpaste! Deodorant to the toothbrush, it was to late before he noticed. Your story reminded of that, I got two chuckles from your story Thank You!
