rING... rING... No Answer.

Okay... about two weeks ago, I had a "C-Ya Later" Celebration for my departure from my current job location. I picked a really cool bar in a 10th floor Penthouse near downtown Houston. It was the perfect location with immaculate weather (on the outside terrace). Happy Hour drinks and craw fish were flowing upon my arrival around 7pm. I rode with my BF Princessa, as I didn't know where the night would take me (or how much I would intake during the night ;o)

Long story shortened... after dancing the night away I left my belongings (purse, keys and phone) on a table where Princessa, Berry and myself were hanging out (with them sitting there) to go close my tab and retrieve my card. When I returned there was no one sitting at the table and my things were GONE.

After asking around I figured out the Princessa was in the bathroom. After entering into the bathroom I noticed her (drunk ;o) standing by the sink. I asked her about my things, and she handed me my purse. After reviewing the contents, everything was accounted for but my phone.

I went back and searched and searched but could not locate my phone anywhere (Obviously it was late, and the bar was super crowded by this point). Berry and I even went back the next night and didn't locate it. I eventually "charged it to the game" and began the quest to get a new phone.

I will admit, I probably called my phone over a 100 times that weekend either A. Hoping it was hiding in one of my purses compartments or B. checking voicemail.

All of this happened on a Friday... I had my new phone by Monday (thanks to a special friend ;o).

Dissection:
I guess I could (and did) attempt to place the blame on a number of people as to why my phone was missing. Ultimately it was due to my carelessness. I should have never set my things down and walked away... even if my friends were sitting there. It was my responsibility and I dropped the ball.

I must say... those two days that I did not have a cell phone were the most peaceful days ever. It is something extremely relaxing about being out of reach. I love it!

The End.
