Pregnant Pause

My wife, Kathy is not ditzy. She is not an airhead. She is not goofy. She would want me to let you know this.

She IS pregnant, however, (Diana Elise. Baking rightly at 98.6 degrees!) and it is to THAT that I will attribute her latest expectant escapade:

"Oh LAWD!" she exclaims inside her head, "I can't find the carkeys!" She had just walked out of her office building, having just gotten off.

"What am I gonna do?" she thought frantically, mind racing. She searched her purse. Nothing. Her coat pockets. Nope.

"I'mma hafta go all the way back in the building and retrace all my steps! Oh, LAWD!"

She's trying to focus, but she can't because the radio is up too loud. As she throws her head back into the headrest and looks up through the sunroof at the rapidly purpling sky, Kathy begins to howl, laughing...

She is IN the CAR! It is RUNNING! She has unlocked the car door, gotten inside, closed the door, put the keys into the ignition, started it, buckled up, and forgotten all of that!

Now, I know we all have looked for a set of keys that were in our hands, but I don't think ANYone has ever sat inside of a running automobile and fretted over lost carkeys!

Part of the reason I married her is because of how funny she is, but she is USUALLY funny on purpose. I'm worried about her now, though. "For richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, for smarter or absent-mindeder?" I don't know...
