Lt. Trouble: Got everything?
Me: Yes.
Lt. Trouble: Are you sure?
Me: Of course I'm sure. I spent half the day yesterday packing to make sure it all fit. You realize you and your girlfriend gave the kids about three pounds of candy each?
Lt. Trouble: Did you pack your camera?
Me: Of course I packed it! Do you think I'm some sort of idiot? I wouldn't forget that! It's got all my pictures--including the ones of me and The Queen of Dorks. I'm not forgetting that!
Lt. Trouble: Okay, if you're sure--let's get to the airport.
5:00 pm, EST:
Me: (on the phone) Hi! We just landed! It was a good flight....ummm....I think I left the camera in my bedroom.
Lt. Trouble: Yeah. We'll mail it to you tomorrow.
