Lemme just say that I will be eternally grateful that y'all can't see how much I am blushing right now 
Went to the grocery store, got my stuff and paid cash. As soon as I got in the car I realized..... ya dork, you just spent all your cash and you're out of gas.........
and then the REAL issue hit..........
I've never used my credit card at a gas pump before and I have NO CLUE HOW. ... this is a joyful moment.
I had to ASK some guy to show me what to do! duh!!! I told him I rarely even use the card cuz I don't even like shopping.
His response was priceless: are you SURE you're a female? LOL. So there ya have it folks, a first for me and another embarrassing moment in the life and times of Jen the Dork.

We always pay cash for our gas so I think I would be in the same situation. I know how to use the card everywhere else but a gas station? That I have never done. I think I had better learn to do this, thanks Jen!

99% of my purchases are done with my bank debit/credit card. Easier to manage the finances. I just go on line and access my account.
Hubby will be thrilled you leraned to use the credit card. He'll sleep REAL well tonight.

I tried warning you about having that "brain" surgery, Jen.
Don't feel bad. We've all pulled some no-brainers. Nothing to be embarassed about.

You are. Disconnect your brain and leave it at the door. You are about to become comfortably numb.

Don't feel stupid... you'll feel like a genius after I tell you what I did yesterday.
I had to drive from San Luis Obispo up to San Jose, about 250 miles, and I was running late. This was for a big meeting with Cisco, VMware, EYP MCF, and a couple other execs that are helping on this project I have in Boston. I was in an extreme hurry, but I needed to drop off dry cleaning and fill up the tank before hitting the road.
I didn't go to my normal gas station... the one I went to has fucking green pumps that dispense GAS. Green is for DIESEL, not Gas. I don't know what mf'n idiot decided to make a pump that is green but pumps gas. A S S holes. So, my beautiful planet killer (Ford Excursion 7.3 ltr DIESEL) got an $800 service yesterday to remove the gas I pumped into it.
You may feel stupid, but I are stoopid.
