Subject: Things You'll Never Hear the Last Of
The grammar police will say it should be "Things Of Which You'll Never Hear The Last." Don't bug me - I've got other things to worry about :-)

So last night I left the session early, not feeling very alert even though I had been drinking cola. I felt I'd left something, but a quick check showed me I had my fiddle case and bag. I went home and eventually went to bed.

I got a phone call a few minutes ago from a friend who had been at the session. "Hi Jeri. Are you missing anything?" I said no, I didn't think so. She said when all the fiddlers packed up last night, there had been a leftover fiddle on a table. (At this point, I was thinking "What a dumbass - who could possibly forget an instrument?!") I told her I was pretty sure it wasn't mine, because I was looking at the case, but I checked anyway. Duh! Duh, duh, duh, duuuuuhhhh! Anyway, the fiddle is safe in my friend's hands until next Fri, and I have a backup. I should perhaps consider having a T-Shirt made addressing this event before I actually begin hearing about it. Any suggestions for what to put on the T-shirt?

Has anyone else done anything like this? (And I don't wanna hear 60 people say "Nope, never did anything that stupid! Mind if I tell my friends?")
