Pretty much every night for months...
... I would get home from work and try to open the house with my car key. This was just after I'd passed my test, so having a car key was a novelty and obviously my brain hadn't yet learned that I now had TWO important keys, and that they did different things. Oddly, however, I never tried to start my car with my house key.

Also while on autopilot I referred to my girlfriend by the name of my previous girlfriend. Just the once.

Just the once? Amateur.
When challenged, try saying "but that's your name... oooh no it isn't"

Still we're happily together many, many years later.

I managed to get away with it, just the once
We were both a bit pissed and having a silly argument over nothing, which I pointed out was probably what reminded me of my ex in the first place. It's amazing how fast your brain works when that mortal fear strikes.

That's what the word "darling" was invented for
