Wow, so much excitement...

I was able to leave work early because I got in earlier than usual. I decided to go home and grab dinner before getting Ben.

I took the wrong set of keys. I had my car key but didn't have my house key and (joy of joys) I forgot my cell. I get to the daycare and tried to call Michael from the daycare phone but he didn't answer. My friend Jen arrives, but she has to hurry because she needs to drop a friend off at a car dealer. Jen's car won't start. She asks me for a jump. I found out something interesting about the BMW, the battery is in, of all places, the trunk. Long story short, in the future if someone asks me for a jump, to put it in Jen's words, "The answer is 'No'." Luckily she tried her car again and it started. Just as her husband, Andrew, was pulling up to the daycare. Meanwhile, I borrowed her friend's phone to try Michael again, no luck. They invite me to go to Costco with them, they need to get food and snacks for Jen's birthday party. I arrive before them and decide, what the heck, I'll get a Costco membership, you never know, I might need a vat of peanut butter at some point in my life. Well, I didn't have my credit card on me and I forgot my PIN number. So, no membership.

There was a cute baby moment. Gwen (Jen and Andrew's toddler) gave Ben a kiss.
