Which is worse ....

For reasons I don't really need to explain, working hard on a hot day I became concerned that my deodarant may no longer have been working. The strange thing was, I had taken a shower just a few hours before and as certain I put on sufficient amounts of the stuff and I had never had a problem in the past.

It then occurred to me that may I had forgotten to up on the deodorant in the first place.

I don't know if I should be more concerned that the deodorant was no longer working, or that I had forgotten to do something that has been a daily routine for 20 years.
