What the hell was I thinking???

We've all had those moments where we hit palm to forehead and think...what the hell was I thinking doing that? saying that? going back to that? buying that?

I had one today. I was walking thru Walmart with a friend of mine with the intention of buying an ink cartridge for my printer and then leaving the store. But we all know THAT'S not gonna happen. But today I almost made it to the cashier but I sadly, I lost. We walked by the summer toys and there it was on the shelf. The thing I've been looking for, for the past 3 years. A real set of horse shoes.
Not the plastic crap that's filled with sand or whatever. These were made of real steel and had some weight to them. And to make it even sweeter, they were on sale for $20! I was so happy! I brought my find to the cashier and walked out so thrilled with my catch of the day.
When I got them home, my friend brought them in the house for me because they were quite heavy. She put them down and left. As I'm looking at them, I see on the table above them, the brace that I've been wearing for the past week because my wrist has been so sore.
And it occurred to me...how the hell am I going to throw steel horse shoes
when I can't even open a water bottle half the time?!

WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING???

I'd love to hear your ...."what the hell was I thinking" story. We all have them!
