Marc,
At least you didn't drive off with the gas pump nozzle still in the car!

I left my fuel door open, I didn't even close the fuel cap! 
I thought this could never happen to me
Luckily I noticed it before I got to an open road where people could see it.
Has anyone else done this so I can feel better?
