Brain Blast!
Or not. So, last Friday we were supposed to watch the Jimmy Neutron movie after Good Soup. I bought the movie from amazon earlier in the week and thankfully it arrived in the mail on Friday. I had it in my car with me on the way to eat Good Soup. Since Roomie was out of town for the weekend, I locked up the house and left for the restaurant.
During dinner, I got a call from Roomie to say that he was locked out of the house. No, I hadn't given him a key yet. Yes, he's lived there since February. I did try to get a key made once, but Walmart was out of that key type. I had not made time to go back since. Back to the story, I told Roomie to come get my keys from the restaurant and then leave them in the garage. I have a garage door opener, so I'd be able to get into the house. Problem solved.
It wasn't until the end of dinner that I realized I'd given all of my keys to Roomie, including my car key. That garage door opener didn't do me any good inside a locked car...neither did the movie du jour (le film du soiree?). I remembered that my mother has a key to my house, so I swung by there to get it. We picked another movie out of my stack of 2 or 3 DVDs, though not the one I really wanted to see - Cinderella Man. We'll see that someday soon.
Confession time. Like a dork, I remembered too late that I have a remote to my car in my purse (are you getting the picture that I never use it?). While I could not have started the car, I could have gotten in to get the garage door opener and the movie. We could have watched the originally scheduled movie. Oh well. I watched a couple of episodes of Jimmy Neutron yesterday. That will hold me over until we can reschedule the movie.
And yes, I had a key made for Roomie on Saturday. No more locking him out of the house. I think there's an extra one for The Polyglot, too. Now he can lock up after himself when he leaves.
