I’m retired, and I cashier at a fast food restaurant for extra money. I picked up a very early shift yesterday, and my husband drove me so he could use the car. Neither of us was completely awake as we got ready.

When we arrived, I got him breakfast as a thank-you. I got out my wallet and realized that my phone and tablet weren’t in my purse.

Me: “Ugh, I didn’t grab my tablet and phone!”

Husband: *Patting his pockets* “I don’t have my phone, either.”

Me: “What will I do on break?”

Husband: “Party like it’s 1999.”

I ended up writing notes for a roleplaying game I am running — on scrap paper.
