Will I forget You Tomorrow?

Ipoh town is having something in common with KL these days... Yes, the town is quite jammed up now... wonder where all the cars come from...

Now festive season, after picking up my girl from her office, the journey home took us around forty minutes to reach home...

But these two days, it took us more than one hour fifteen minutes to reach home!   And it was all my fault...

For two consecutive days, we reached home only to realize that my precious iPhone was left in my office drawer!!  For two daysssss.... Monday, Tuesday!!  How could I forget for two whole days?? 

So what did I do?  I have to drive back to the office again... went up the lift... retrieved my handphone from the drawer and drove home again... so all in all it took us ONE HOUR FIFTEEN MINUTES to reach home!

Sigh.... Will there be a THIRD time?  Will I forget about it again tomorrow?  Let's wait and see....

Pam said...

Life will be much better without the ringing of the mobile. If it happens again, try not to think about the possible incoming calls. It's perfectly all right without the phone for a day.

ken said...

keep it in the handbag :)

sometimes we tend to forget things when we rush..

gigihawaii said...

maybe you should own 2 phones: 1 for the office, 1 for home????

missyblurkit said...

set an alarm approximately the time that you're supposed to head home. then you won't forget:P

Ginny said...

The iPhone does have alarms, I think. You could set them to go off right before leaving work. I agree with the others. But does your boss let you keep the phone on and use it during the workday?

Hang it around your neck...and everyone can see you've got an iPhone. Gaya sikit... LOL!!!

This happened on me before. I also drove back to office to get back my handphone. We are so absent minded sometimes.

How can you forget your new baby? Too many things in your mind. I doubt you will forget to fetch your girl from work.
