Comedy of Errors

1. Wife forgets car key. Has to take mine, to drive the car to the parking lot, which is near her office, after dropping me off at my office.

2. At 5:02 pm, I call wife to see if she’s coming to pick me up, or if I need to walk to car. She tells me that she’s running an experiment, and I need to either take the bus immediately or go walk to the parking lot and get the car to pick up the kid. The kid must be picked up by 5:45 pm. I opt to walk to the car.

3. Upon arriving at the car, I realize that I do not have my car key. Also, Cell Phone battery has died because I forgot to charge phone last night. I walk to wife’s office to get my key.

4. Wife’s office door is closed and locked. I walk back to the car.

5. The car is gone. It is now 5:30. I walk back to my office.

6. I plug in my phone and call wife, who decided NOT to do her experiment, and go pick up the kid. “What’s wrong with your phone?” she asks. I stew in frustration, trying not to blame anybody.

7. Wife offers to pick me up. I accept the offer. I log into blog and post this message.
