Today, my daughter's school called to inform me that I needed to bring her some sneakers. Not feeling like driving the 15 minutes to her school, I told them I was away from town. Then I realized I was on my house phone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, since I'm still recovering from my surgery and can't drive, my daughter drove me to the doctor. When I was done and walked outside, she was nowhere to be seen. Then I got a text, saying, "Sorry, I forgot I have to be somewhere." The closest bus stop to our house is miles away. FML
Today, my parents left for work before I had to leave for school and I decided to skip. I stayed by the phone, expecting the school to call so I could pose as my parent and excuse my absence. The phone rings and I pick up. It's my Mom, calling to leave my dad a message on the machine. FML
Today, I got a call from my kid’s school, saying my daughter had a minor accident on the playground. When they asked her who to call, she'd said, "My mom’s probably in a meeting. Call the pizza place, they always pick up." FML
Today, I had to go to my daughter's school because she hasn't been going to class. Her teacher seemed surprised to see me with my husband when we arrived. Apparently I "died" recently and my daughter has had extra responsibility around the house, hence why she doesn't come to class. FML
Today, I went to work 300 miles away from where I live. I couldn't find my customer's address, so I decided to call him. I'd picked up my wireless house phone instead of my mobile. FML
Today, I made the long drive to work, got out of the car, and realised that I'd forgotten to put shoes on before I left the house. FML
Today, I noticed that my mom had left the house without her cell phone. I called her phone to let her know she forgot it. FML
Today, my mom was on the phone while we went grocery shopping. Apparently, her phone call was more important because she just left me stranded in the store. FML
Today, my daughter asked me if I could have the kids overnight, even though I’d babysat all day, all because she just got home and was too tired to make the drive to pick them up. She only lives two minutes away. I can see her house from my bathroom window. FML
Today, due to bad weather, my dad let me take his car to drive to my apartment 3 hours away. I only realized when I got there that my keys were still sitting on my parents' kitchen counter. FML

"I lied, just because I am lazy, but I couldn't even do it right." Oh yeah, obviously your life is terrible.

Today, I was playing with my Barbies when I should've been getting ready for school, so I forgot my gym shoes at home. I'm a little shit and can't plan ahead, so I expected my mom to drop whatever she was doing and bring me my shoes so I don't get 2 points off my 4th grade gym grade. I mean, I am the center of the universe; everyone should focus on me, right? FML

Wow.... Lazy much? You're going to make your kid suffer (probably can't participate in pe which is FUN) just because you don't wanna drive 15 minutes. Wow, YDI for being selfish and setting a bad example.

They might have thought that you forwarded your call to your cell. But I have to admit, that is VERY sad of you. What kind of parent are you? Obviously not a good one because you could have taken 30 minutes of you laying on your ass, to go help YOUR child.

My mom drives 40 minutes to school and back home two times a day! That's 2 hours and 20 minutes every day, she would kill to drive 15 minutes each day!

15 minutes isn't that big of a deal.

Wonder how it will feel when you're in a nursing home and your daughter won't come visit u because she doesn't feel like driving that far.... Seriously it's people like u who shouldn't be allowed to procreate

You're a shitty parent. Did CPS take your daughter away after that?
