lucky friday the 13th

i've had an odd day today. it started out decent, with the wonderfulness of lick's for lunch, then the afternoon hit and all went awry. the printer that makes our posters called me to say the posters i needed printed were ready. because we needed the posters, and my boss wasn't able to leave because of a meeting, i needed to head out.

except one problem.. i couldn't find my keys. i had NO idea where my car keys were. in my purse, where i normally keep my keys at work, were only two sets of keys: ottawa keys & toronto keys.. but no car keys :( i started slapping all three sides of my desk thinking it may be buried under the piles of papers and samples scattered everywhere. nothing felt weird. my car keys are missing.. :S i checked my coat jacket, nothing. there's a hole in one of my pockets, so i stuck my hand in all the way to feel around, shook my coat to hear any jingling.. nothing. my car keys are MISSING! my co-worker gave me her car keys so i could check her car to see if they fell on the floor (she drove to lick's). nothing. i ran around my car, twice; checked underneath, nothing. the doors were locked, so it means i walked to my desk with my keys. my CAR keys are MISSING! another co-worker suggested i call lick's to see if they found a set of lost car keys. checked lick's website - they don't list a single phone number.. great. check canada411 and they only list the head office number. called lick's head office - customer service *beep* voicemail.. receptionist *beep* voicemail.. MY CAR KEYS ARE MISSING! i checked my top desk drawer.. holy batman i'm stupid! they were there. i spent twenty minutes looking for my car keys, and they ended up being in the dumbest spot. why in my top desk drawer? i headed to our training centre in the morning and took my safety glasses with me. when i returned, i had both my safety glasses and my keys in hand which i just plomped in the drawer. *slaps forehead*

second thing to happen today? i was walking from the printer to my car with the invoice in hand. and WHOOSH.. it flew away. the invoice for my posters just flew out of my hand! *sigh*

after telling this to my boss, his words of advice, "be VERY careful driving home!" :S well i'm home safe and sound, so these things don't happen in threes. *phew*
