TIFU by finally losing my marbles and misplacing my watch

Was about to head out and wanted to put my watch on. Went to the charger to grab it and it wasn't there. Oh OK I must have put it on the table. Nope not there either. Did I take it off and put it by the side table, no. Had I put it by one of the other power points for charging? No. I started searching all the rooms of the house I know I've never left it in before. Of course not there.

Now the irrational thoughts started coming. I went to an appointment yesterday, did I take it off and leave it there. Oh that would be a pain having to sheepishly go back and ask to look for my watch. But no I'm sure I had it when I got home. Could it be possible I left the door unlocked and someone has walked in and ignored everything else to take just my watch? Feels far fetched.

I started a second cycle of the house, nope still not on the charger, not on table or side table. Where could it be, this is bizarre. How could a watch just disappear??

Yeah of course it was on my wrist. You hear of this happening, but think it must be a joke right. So it's started, the cognitive decline has begun. And yes, I'm sure you predicted this outcome from the title. But that's because you still have a fully functioning brain!

TLDR Frantically searched house for missing watch. Turned out was still wearing it. My mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can feel it.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
