Yesterday morning I had to drive the wife into work at 6am. We get all bundled up, get the baby bundled up and head out to the jeep. I'm standing there waiting for the wife to open the door and she's waiting for me to open the door.
Her: open the door, what are waiting for?
Me: why would I have the keys I have the diaper bag and baby?
Her: are you shitting me?
Me: I shit you not
Turns out that we had both walked out thinking the other had the keys....not only to the jeep but to the house....
Great. So I find someone heading the direction of our landlords and bum a ride (only 1/2 mile away) I get the keys and run back in the snow like a gazelle. Problem solved.
Well, later on in the afternoon I took syd out to the car to try to fix a door lock problem. I put the key in the ignition so we could listen to the radio while I futzed with the back door trying to get it apart. I gave up and got out. When I tried to open the front door I noticed that syd had pushed the lock down. No problem, I have the key....no....its in the ignition. Fuzzy nuts....
The back window was cracked just enough that I could chit chat with her while I waited for AAA to come and unlock my door so that I could get my key and my baby. You have no idea how hard I tried to get her to roll down the window or get the key out of the ignition, I promised her all sorts of yummy treats. No success.
My new plan is to make 15 copies of every key that I own and distribute them to friends, family and neighbors all over town.
