Keys, keys, keys

The last couple of days just haven't been going my way...

I fell asleep last night around 6:30pm...on the couch. Fine. A friend's call woke me up around 8:30 to see if I was going out. It was Saturday night, after all! I decided to make it a quiet evening and stayed in instead. I actually went on to bed after his call and decided that I needed to catch up on some much needed rest. I dozed in and out until I had to get up at 9:45am. I got ready for work and was off. I was proud of myself for leaving my apartment early so that I could get in a workout before work. I get to work and look at my keys...I'd left my apartment keys at home! Uggg...

Let me explain. I have 4 - yes, 4! - keys associated with my apartment. One to get into the building, one for my front door, one for my balcony door, and one for the laundry room. Instead of carrying all of them all the time, I separated the 2 to get into the building and my apartment from the others. I leave the other 2 at home 'cause I don't need them all the time. When I go for a run, I use the balcony key to get back in so that I don't have to carry 2 keys. When I go out, I just take the 2 for the building/front door with me. This is what happened on Friday night. Since I didn't go anywhere yesterday, I'd forgotten to put them with my work keys.

Ugggg...

This is the 3rd time this has happened to me since I moved in this past August. My landlord is gonna think I'm a total spazz and idiot! I keep telling myself I need to get some extras made...I guess I need to get that done, eh?

I can't lock myself out of the house. You can't lock the door without a key.

I sorta wish that were the case with me! I just lock the knob, not the dead bolt when I leave. Maybe I should start doing that...hrmm... On a positive note, my landlord didn't seem upset:)
