Forgot my watch

Left my house in a rush this morning and forgot my watch and rings. I feel completely naked. I keep looking at my wrist and nothing there.

Has it ever happened to you before?

Sounds like a good reason to hit your AD up for some fresh wrist candy!

It happens about once a year and is awful. Forgetting a belt is also terrible (for me).

Well, if this helps any readers who’ve done the same today, the correct time is 9:42am EDT...

If it was a DD, it’s Friday the 23rd.

I've left without my wallet a few times. Not a huge deal, my valet carries my money for me. But even worse? No wallet and no library card!

Any time I forget to put my watch on, I swear I spend the day occasionally noticing my right arm slowly levitating without the weight of my watch....but definitely messes with the vibe for the day :-)

I wear my watch practically 24/7. Rare, but it happens.

I’ve turned around and gone back before for my watch. If my head wasn’t to my body, I’d forget that too.

Never my watch, but I have forgotten my lunch. No problem, I called my wife and she brought it for me.
