blonde moment
Brief ditzy episode
A blonde moment is a brief lapse in judgment, memory, or awareness—forgetting something obvious, making a silly mistake, or spacing out.
The phrase plays on the stereotype of blonde women as ditzy or airheaded: Sorry, I just had a blonde moment—I was looking for my phone while holding it.
