On predictability and planning

15 November 2005

From last night's post:

"Note to self: don't forget your toothbrush and toothpaste."

The list:

Yes, that's right. I made the list. I checked it twice.

I still forgot my sodding toothbrush.

"No trouble!" thought I, knowing that there's a travel toothbrush and toothpaste in my drawer at work.

Yes, that's right.

The bloody thing has disappeared.

I have everything from mustard to oxo cubes to plasters to bandages to paracetamol and spare tights, via napkins, a tin opener, a manicure set and all sorts, but no bloody toothbrush.

It's just going to be one of those days.

My uncle always used to tell me that "if the only thing you forget is your toothbrush, you're doing OK".

Only now do I realise what he was getting at.

Either that or he's barking mad. Must visit him actually, but can't remember the visiting hours...

I have toothbrushes in work, in my handbags, at home. Everywhere. Because this is the situation I will find myself in on a regular basis. It's the toothpaste however which I always forget!

Still, at least you remembered your knitting. Priorities, girl, priorities.

Ah, the benefits of modern hotels...should have everything you need in the bathroom, including a toothbrush for moments just such as these. Sometimes, everything just rolls together!
