I arrived at the coffee shop early this morning ready to work on Reunion at the Happy Valley Motor Inn and Resort. There was just one problem:
No laptop. It’s at home, sitting by the back door. I’m clear across Tallahassee.
Internal conversation:
I could go home and get it.
It’s too far; you’d waste too much gas.
I guess I’ll write when I return home.
But all the really good ideas happen at the coffee shop.
That’s nonsense, and you know it.
But all the really good coffee drinks are at the coffee shop.
Well, that makes sense, but the coffee will be here tomorrow, as well.
True. So sip coffee now. Do some shopping. Write this afternoon. Maybe take a nap in between. And try to remember your laptop tomorrow.
Finally, a plan we can agree on.
Peace, people.
Praying for Eyebrowz 
I thought you were going to say you borrowed a napkin to jot down ideas.

I jotted some down in my phone, so it hasn’t been a wasted morning! And, on a hunch I went to a thrift store and found a great travel bag in excellent condition for $8.00! I’d contemplated ordering the same bag from Baggalini but for $69 on sale! The morning was saved.

Reminds me of that sinking feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when you’re halfway home and realize your cellphone is sitting on your desk at work.

Definitely. I realized I’d left it at home just as I parked my car at the coffee shop.

Quite funny. Cute bag and face mask. I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who argues with herself inside her mind. 🙂 I hope you got some good writing done later in the day.

So long as we both keep it internal, we should be safe from the loony bin. 🙂

That sounds like a conversation I’d have. I’m glad you were able to save the day so it wasn’t wasted.
