Yep, yep, yep. Gotta agree with everything on that list, and especially the cell phone one!

One time, post-bomb but pre-move-out, my H was about to go play in a concert and had somehow managed to get separated from his cell phone in the house (which was pretty rare by then). I can't imagine what possessed him to actually lay it down somewhere and then go to another room without it (maybe the aliens were all busy for a minute and nobody was minding the switch on H's brain?).

Anyway, he was running around the house, frantically searching for it, making himself more and more late, and at one point he said, "I am NOT leaving without my cell phone!" I really wanted to say, "Gee, so being accessible to OW every minute is more important than keeping a commitment to your (evangelical Christian!!) band mates to be on stage playing for an important concert, eh?" Of course I didn't say anything, but it gave me one of those moments with which we are all so familiar, in which you have to laugh, because otherwise you will commit an act of violence! crazy

Peace,
Dawn
