Maybe we should start a "cuss Stunts" thread and see what else we've got to share.
I hear that same story on other forums too. Not that uncommon. I guess we're so tired from the trip our mind is zoned out. Either that, or we are forcing ourselves to be so focused on the trip, knowing we are tired, that we arrive home and relax a little too soon- pulling into our driveway and saying: "Ahhh... I made it!"
