as we walked along the subway platform, a look of desperation shadowed my face as the realization sunk in: no phone for a day? how will i reach people? what if i need to access something from my gmail account? kevin saw how crestfallen i was and suggested i go back to retrieve it, but the train was arriving in 3 minutes and i decided it's my own punishment for not being more careful packing my purse in the morning. off to work we went!
at the office, i had a long list of things to get done (mondays ahhh!!) and worked slowly to get through the list and check off each item as it was completed. it actually didn't really occur to me that i was missing my phone again until i was trying to send an email to our homepolish designer, which i eventually just sent from my work email. my greatest concern, however, was that people might be trying to reach me and i didn't want to inadvertently ignore any friends.
oh there was one other time i was pining for my phone and that was while i was waiting for the train on the way home. but other than that, leaving it at home really didn't make much of a difference and i actually felt much more focused at the office.
when i arrived home, i changed out of my work clothes into my "home clothes" and started preparing dinner. it wasn't until much later when i actually checked my phone and saw: 0 messages! haha .. i had been worrying for nothing.
it might not be a terrible idea to leave the security blanket, i mean, cell phone at home a little more in the future.
