TIFU by not wearing my glasses when taking pain medication

I should preface this that I have horrible vision. Not legally blind or anything, but if I’m not wearing my glasses, everything is just blurry blobs. To properly read text on ny phone, I have to hold it 2 inches in front of my face. (My prescription is like -6.75 if that means anything for you.) Last night, while in bed, I was experiencing pretty bad cramps. I try to grab for my glasses in the night stand so I can go get some pain meds, but I knock them off between the med and the nightstand. Tired and not wanting to have to act like Velma, I just fumble my way to the medicine cabinet in the bathroom. Blearily I squint into the cabinet and see the generic white and blue bottle of ibuprofen. Grab it and pour four pills into my hand. Yup! Those are the generic red, round pills of ibuprofen I usually take!!! I swallow them and take a sip of water, grab my heating pad and head back to bed. The heating pad helps just enough with the pain I’m able to fall asleep. Then just after a little...

TIFU by ordering a meal plan from the completely wrong company and feel like the dumbest person on Earth.

TIFU (well the order was earlier this week and it arrived today, so today I realized I fuck up?) So my father in law had been getting Hello Fresh meal kits for a few years, many of them were spoiling before he got around to making them. We decided to switch to Factor so he could just put them in the microwave and have a decent meal. We cancelled the meal kits more than a month ago but earlier this week I finally got around to ordering the Factor meals. I get a text from the company telling me my delivery is on the way, but it is from Fresh Prep? I think it must be a parent company or a local contractor and move on with my day. It arrives, I open it and find what amounts to groceries in a delivery driver bag. I look up the website Fresh Prep, see I have an order with them and wonder how in the fuck I possibly registered with, picked meals from, and then gave my credit card to a totally different company than the one I was looking for? I can see how the websites use a similar color s...

TIFU by forgetting to take my meds before going to the birth of my child

Technically a yesterday i fucked up but close enough. I have narcolepsy and have been diagnosed for nearly 6 years now. I take stimulants to help keep my body awake and regulated so I have less troubles in my day to day life. Now imagine your me getting shaken awake by my wife at 6 am telling me that her water broke and we needed to get everything prepared so we could head to the hospital. So I grab the hospital bag, I grab her meds, I grab my blood pressure medication but I forgot to grab my stimulants. 6 hours later the world welcomes my beautiful baby boy and the moment he is handed to my wife, i drop. I got so overwhelmed with emotion my brain decided to take a back seat for a moment. I woke up about 15 minutes later and found out I hit my head on the side rail of my wife's bed. I luckily didnt break my face over or anything but I have a nasty black eye. Let's just say photos with the baby have been interesting. I cant wait to tell him those story when hes older. He...

TIFU by trying to have a one night stand

So last night was Halloween. I F26 recently got out of a relationship (within the last 3 months) I haven’t really been doing any dating and went out on the town in Anoka, MN with some friends. I met this guy M22 that seemed really nice and we hit it off. One thing led to another and he asked me back to his place. I had some fun and met his cute black cat. Then he drove me back to my hotel where my car and friends were. Buttttttt I left my keys and wallet in his car. I tried chasing after him but he was too fast driving away in his muffler less tiny car. I think his name was Kelton but I’m not sure if that sounds real or not lol. I think he works in glass working. I just really want my keys and cards but don’t have his number. He has mine but hasn’t reached out yet. I know he recently got out of a relationship he was in since he was like 15 and lives around here. He also has a sheep in wolf’s clothing tattoo. If you know this man please help me get my things back!! I would be so gratefu...
