Going...Going...Gone...
I'm seriously losing my mind, party people. Holy snot balls...seriously. All day yesterday was fine, relatively speaking. Until after I left work, of course. Work has become the one thing in my life I can depend on for some degree of sanity and stability. I get off the bus where I park my car, and realize that I have no keys on me...gone. Luckily, I carry a spare car key in my wallet, so I get in my car, thinking I just left the keys in the ignition or something. Nope...not even close. So the rest of the night had me trying to convince myself that, for whatever reason, I left my keys at work. I never take them out of my pocket, by the way…but, given recent events, hey...anything's possible. The "Service Engine Soon" light was on in my car all last night, so feeling like I was wheeling around town driving a ticking time bomb was rather exhilarating. I was ambivalent to the light by the time I headed home from Helena's house around 10. This morning, I get up and while I was getting ready, I was talking to my fiancée on the phone while she drove in to work. She lets me know her parents told her the window in our new master bedroom is leaking, but they really don’t know the cause of it yet. YESSSSSSSSS!!! Anyway, upon leaving the house, I managed to forget my work bag that has my bus pass on it. But...at least the damn "Check Engine" light finally went off. Guess my car realized that was a lost cause. Probably a wet wire. My car leaks. Then, when the water finally evaporates, my windows get this fantastically thick layer of condensation on them that takes about 1/2 hour to make go away...anyway, the whole forgetting the bag thing was realized when I got to the damn parking lot for the bus. So I drove in to work, and parked in the nearest parking garage. Once I got out of my car, I realized I had bus fare in my pocket. First of the month, no new bus pass...but, somehow I remembered to take $1.50 with me this morning, so forgetting my bag was a non-issue. So, basically, I paid an extra $6.50 to come to work this morning. I get in to work, keys are not on my desk. Somehow, that actually made me feel good. I'm not losing things or forgetting things, but some random person now had the keys to my car, my house, and my parent's house. Not to mention my Shaw's Card, Stop & Shop Card, and PetCo Card. But at least I'm not forgetting things. Oh wait...I forgot my Norwich Ring on the dryer this morning. I left it there while I was fixing my hair. Oh...and my bag...with my lunch in it...note to self: do NOT EVER talk to ANYONE in the morning (other than yourself) while getting ready for work...
Psyching myself up for tonight. Have to get an oil change after work...oh, and replace all the keys I lost too...So here I am at work...no bag...no lunch...no Ring...no keys...but at least...I got my coffee. Chocolate Cappuccino...yum!
