Wow, I sort of feel a bit like Dirty Hip today

I normally take Ryan to school on Wed and Fri until we save up enough to buy him a car.  Not going into debt over 5-7k.  Anyway, wojsharr is working from home today, so I asked if she would take Ryan.  This changed the dynamic of my morning and I forgot something at home.

I was standing in my office and something at waist level or below just did not feel right, so I did a quick check and yep, you guessed it, I totally forgot to put something on today!

I will not open up this thread to guesses as to what I forgot to wear down there.

UGH.  That ruins my day when I get here and I go to change into work clothes and ... <groan>  it ends up being a commando day.  I hate that.

You are changing clothes, I assume, from riding clothes to office clothes.  If you forget to toss some panties or socks or a shirt in your backpack, that makes sense.  But have you ever forgotten to dress properly in the first place?

One time I forgot my entire pannier bag.  ALL of my clothes, lunch and life was in that.   I had left it sitting next to the door.  Had to turn around and ride back to the house.  I usually carry it out to the garage and hook it on.  We have a detached garage. 

There have been times where I packed a completely bad outfit, and just had to wear it anyway.  I wasn't going to ride home to swap a shirt.

Sometimes, I will ride home in my work outfit, if it is sporty enough.  In the morning it is so frigid.  I can't wear my work clothes here.  I was be miserable.  New new place is far enough that it would be completely unbearable to wear office clothes on the bike.

Socks

RG wants to know how you can stand to do that.

 

Cowboy boots with out socks is not that bad, but I try not to do it on a regular basis.  If I have kicked my boots off and taken my socks off and need to go outside to get something out of my car, etc, I will slip my boots on sockless.

Otherwise it makes a mess of a stink, eh.

If I forget something on the bike commute,it’s usually my phone! I usually get the bike out of the garage, go back in to kiss WoW goodbye, grab my phone and coffee. For some reason I forget the phone once in a while. 
A couple times I have forgotten the keys to the work car. I normally leave them at work on my desk. Sometimes I forget and leave them in my pocket and they get set on the table when I get home and empty my pockets. I can normally get the 2nd set from boss’s office. One day he was gone and junior partner had to go to a meeting first thing so I couldn’t get into their office. Oh darn! I will have to ride my bike an additional 6 miles today! Not bad as long as it’s not too hot or humid...

Thanks for mentioning it and letting me know other people are forgetful.

I got so wrapped up with my building contractor needing $10,600 from me for improvements that I forgot about a meeting yesterday with the contractor's design expert.  Lucky my BiL called to ask why I didn't get him for it and I was able to back up the meeting half an hour.
