I Feel Naked Without It!

I left my wallet at home.

Thankfully I brought a pre-made lunch; leftovers from yesterday's amazing dinner prepared ever so wonderfully by my excellent chef of a father, dad. It consists of pork roast, peas, juliene potatoes, and stuffing (a.k.a. dressing) - this cheesy heaven potato dish and this stuffing are two of my favorite things to eat, soooo yummy.

Unfortunately, I was in the mood for my daily diet doctor pepper and I was going to spin the Mamba lottery wheel again, but it was probably for the best I didn't have a way to pay for it. It's probably a sign saying - you just bought a 360, save your money.

This kind of thing hasn't happened to me in a while - I have been very good at keeping my wallet with me - I just happened to take it out yesterday to write down my flexible spending debit card number on a bill I just got from my chiropractor and I forgot to put it back in my jacket pocket. Usually I forget it in a time where it isn't necessary to have it - like today... but there have been a couple of times where I did need it...

The very first time I was pulled over for speeding I was driving in my father's truck to a callback with Minneaolis Musical Theatre. I didn't have my wallet on me, which meant I didn't have my liscence. Add it to the fact that my dad had a bandana hung from the rear view mirror which is against the law, you can see why my first time talking to a police officer on the side of the road was horrifying and traumatic. I ended up driving away with a pretty hefty fine.

Then there's the time I forgot my wallet when I was on a date. It wasn't anything big, we were just going to the Green Mill in Uptown for some eats, and AFTER we ate I realized I didn't have my wallet... it was a first date so they didn't truly know how clumsy and forgetful I can be, and they probably thought I had planned it... I promised to pay for the next meal but there wasn't a next meal, lol. I wonder why... I still feel bad about that day.

Today I will take my absent wallet as a sign and I will be healthy. I will eat my well-rounded lunch without snacking on sugars afterwards or drowning myself in carbination, good thing I have my water bottle!

I've been wanting to go back home and play xbox all day - it's addicting! Here's a video from the game Portal, I described in my last entry - it's a fun game but you can easily get turned around when you're going through a portal - listen to the comedic robot voice that describes the board for you. A fun puzzle game!
