Before she left, I warned her to be careful—there are plenty of idiots on the road.
About 15 minutes later, the radio announced: “There’s a car driving on the wrong side of the road in your area.”
I immediately called her.
“Be careful, love. Someone’s driving on the wrong side of the road.”
She replied,
“Someone?! EVERYONE is driving on the wrong side!”
After a meeting a few days ago, I couldn’t find my keys.
I quickly gave myself a full “TSA-style pat down.”
Nothing in my pockets.
Then it hit me—I must have left them in the car.
I rushed to the parking lot.
My husband has warned me many times about leaving my keys in the ignition. He’s always afraid the car will get stolen. As I scanned the lot, I realized he was right.
The parking lot was empty.
Panicking, I called the police, explained where I was, admitted I had left my keys in the car, and reported it stolen.
Then came the hardest call of all—to my husband.
“I left my keys in the car… and it’s been stolen.”
There was a long pause. I thought the call had dropped.
Then he said,
“Are you kidding me? I DROPPED YOU OFF.”
Now it was my turn to be silent.
Embarrassed, I asked,
“Well… can you come pick me up?”
He replied,
“I will—as soon as I convince this police officer that I didn’t steal your car!”
