D'oh!

My Dear Blog-Readers,
You join me tonight after I have scaled new heights (or possibly that should be plumbed new depths) of Muppetry... The tale I recount for you now...
'Twas after work, and I'd spent a couple of hours with my brother, then he'd taken me past work to procure some cable for him (don't worry... the boss will be told!), and he drove me home... I got out of the car, waved him off and he duly departed... and I headed to the door, opened my handbag, and reached in to grab my key... and it wasn't in its usual bit! So I rifled around in the main body of my bag (where I'm sure Lord Lucan resides along with Shergar and the Lost City of Atlantis!)... and I couldn't feel it (now, it's not a single key... it's a dirty great big bunch of mainly keyrings, and a few keys)... so I started pulling things out of my bag... and then I remembered - when I last used it on Saturday night, I had a coat on... and today I'd left the coat - yep, you guessed it - hanging on the banister at the bottom of the stairs... inside the house...
So I phoned my brother, coz he's got a spare key - and, after he'd finished laughing, he said he'd come up with the key... but was I sure it was the current key he had, coz remember we'd had to get our lock changed about this time last year?
At this point I really started to panic!
However, you can tell by the fact that I'm sat here typing this, that the key was indeed the right one... and, sure enough, when I got inside and put my hand in the pocket of my coat, there were both my bunches of keys - home lot and work lot (how did I manage to get into the office then? Well, there's a side door with a combination lock on it, so I'd never needed my keys there).
Both lots are now safely in my bag for tomorrow... but I'll check again in the morning...
Not much else exciting today.
Now, come on - please tell me someone can compete with my dingusity... confess on a comment... just to make me feel better...
