Focus Fail
So my daughter's 4th birthday was yesterday. The wife had ordered a bunch of balloons for it and asked me to pick them up while she was finishing the decorations. So I headed down without seeing how many balloons there were and barely got them in. Felt like I was in UP...
15 balloons in the bag and one large unicorn balloon back there someplace. :D

You probably got great mileage seeing as how the car was practically airborne.
