I was once told I had a genius IQ, you know...

But clearly whoever told me? Was lying through their teeth.

I managed to send to a request on Gorkana PR earlier this week accidentally publishing my home phone number.

Yesterday, I used the site again and this time, well this time I was DEAD careful. I didn't select phone number, I only put in my email address and sent the request. Two minutes later, my home phone rang. It was a PR person, cheerfully telling me my phone number was on my Gorkana request. Gah.

Do me a favour? If you got my number from Gorkana this week, delete it. And ask your colleagues to do the same? My office number is on my website, which is here.

Personally, I'm blaming Mr Gorkana and his fancy redesign, because I'm practically an official genius and never make stupid mistakes. Particularly not standing in the busy supermarket car park last night and spending a whole 60 seconds trying to open the car door before my 3-year-old daughter pointed out I was trying to open the car parked NEXT to our car. Seriously, try getting out of that one with your dignity intact.

I once actually got into the wrong car in the supermarket car park. I sat in the driver's seat wondering why I'd never noticed the dashboard was that colour before. And then I looked around and saw the baby wasn't in the back seat. That was an alarming moment...

Dignity is soooo overrated.

There's nothing wrong with a good loss of dignity story as long as you have the sense of humour to cope with it and, more importantly, share it.
