I missed my flight. Bound to happen. Of course, I’m blaming him. Sent him back three times; cell phone, watch, oxygen. Who forgets oxygen when traveling to Mars?
Sigh. I’ll be there soon.

for Trifecta’s challenge: flight using the third definition:
3a : a trip made by or in an airplane or spacecraft
b : a scheduled airplane trip
That is a good one!
This sounds like my husband who is always going back checking and re-checking everything until I block his way in the mudroom saying, “You aren’t going back in there again.” We’ve had some close calls on the way to Mars as well.
like the mars touch. much better than needing oxygen for emphysema 🙂
Unexpected! nicely done.
best,

Haha Barbara. Of course you didn’t come out and say this was your husband, but we all know it was! 😀
Bad thing to forget the oxygen, though I’d be more hyper about not having the cell phone! Nice story.
That’s the downside to buying tickets at cheaptickets.com. They never provide the oxygen.
Love this!
That would be me doing the forgetting!
Wonderfully entertaining!
I loved that. “Who forgets oxygen when travelling to Mars.”
Hahaha…sounds like us when we try to leave the house 🙂
haha, indeed. who would forget oxygen when going to mars, lovely little write (:
Love the mars bit – short note to let you know why we’re running late, ‘he’ forgot to pack the oxygen… an obvious need!
LOL!
Men! Always making leaving on time anything but easy.
Nice. I like the little twist of going to Mars. Not the impression I got when I read the first line.
That was cute.
Besides he didn’t forget the oxygen. A politician was trying to steal it for their next speach.
Right? I can definitely see this happening. Great response to the prompt.
Congrats, my dear friend!
Ha! Nice. I like the everyday exasperation over something so out there.
