This weekend is NOT off to a good fucking start.

I packed up my purse last night to go out, and put my keys in there. When I switched my stuff back to my backpack this morning, I apparently forgot to put the keys in the backpack. I found this out only when I got back to my apartment at 5:30. I was hoping that MAYBE, just MAYBE, pierceheart (who has a date tonight) might be in the area or even still at work, and that it wouldn't be a big deal for him to come let me in. But no. I tried my landlord's son, who lives on the third floor. No answer at his door or his phone. pierceheart had to come up here with miss_lisa_ma to let me in. Both of them looked really pissed off. Not that I blame them a bit. I feel like such an utter fucking MORON, and such a self-centered twat. I should have just said, "fuck it, I won't interrupt his date, he can let me in when he comes home from work tomorrow night", and tried to find a friend whose house I could stay at overnight. I should have done that, but I didn't. I didn't think of doing that until I'd already heard back from him.

I'm going to work my ass off tomorrow on the unpacking and cleaning up, and tonight too, as soon as I calm down enough to eat dinner and have a drink to calm me down a little more. That's the least I can do to start making it up to the boy.

Ugh. It's never good, forgetting your keys. That's why I have sneaky, out-of-the-way hidey places. You and piercehart might want to talk about finding one.

Yeah, the idea has occurred to me, though I'm not sure if he'd like it. He's better equipped to know how secure something like that would be than I am, so I'll go with what he says on it. I don't think I'd have forgotten them in the first place if I hadn't still been short on sleep and in the middle of a stressful time (moving). Meh. But now I've eaten dinner, and I'm drinking a margarita while I unpack. I feel more functional than I did when I wrote this entry.

It happens!

Aw, don't be so hard on yourself. We all forget our keys sometimes, and there's no reason to feel bad about calling them to let you in. *hugs*

I know that logically speaking, I didn't do anything wrong, but I do kinda feel like I should have just called a friend instead of dragging them out here when they're on their first date in quite a while. Especially since he has drill tomorrow and will be leaving early in the morning for that.

ARGH. One of these days, things will be done, we'll both be caught up on sleep, and life will be relatively normal again.

Maybe baking will help. I could bake yummy things as a present for miss_lisa_ma, for her patience.

Was their date very far away? I mean, if they were in Boston or Cambridge, yeah, it's annoying for them, but I don't think it would be reasonable to wait until the next night. I mean, then you'd just be imposing on someone else. Now, someone else, I'm sure, would have willingly helped you, but still. You need to get home and do stuff. I mean, if he was going to be home at 12 or 1, sure. But the next evening??? That's not reasonable.

Of course they were annoyed. But part of being in a relationship is helping your partner out of a jam. Like when I crashed my car and J came to pick me up and helped cover the cost of a new car. Forgetting keys is peanuts compared to that!

It sucks that you had to interrupt them, but you had to.

When are you all leaving for your trip, btw?

I hope the rest of your weekend will improve!

Oh, I enjoyed it immensely. It made the world a slightly better place. :)

Doesn't this kind of thing always happen at the worst time???

((sympathetic hug))

I deeply covet your Johnny Cash icon!

Feel free to steal it if you like! Johnny is a god.

I just hope my boy's evening picked up after that shit was done with. Mine is slightly better after a margarita and dinner and some unpacking. Now, if the cable would only stop cutting out randomly. I think the box may be overheating?

I had a similar annoying/embarrassing/inconvenient key incident this week.

I feel for you.

*hugs*

[badseed1980.livejournal.com]

Meh. You deserve a margarita too, then! *hugs*

[dbmyrrha.livejournal.com]

I had one, right after work!
Great minds think alike.

Here's to a much better weekend.

Lock-outs can be frustrating for everyone involved. When you move into a new place, though, it's incredibly easy for these mishaps to happen. I'm sure you and pierceheart will work out an agreeable arrangement.

Well, if something like this ever comes up again, you are welcome to crash in my spare room or on my comfy couch.

I'm thinking about leaving a key with friends I trust. It might be slightly less easy-access than a hidden key on the premises, but more secure.

[badseed1980.livejournal.com]

Much. :)

Unfortunately, probably not until I'm back from Stones Rising. :( Then, though, we should be able to get together!
