I feel like such a tard! I left my house today to go get the mail, got back home and left my keys on the hook by the door. After I began sifting through my mail I found that I had a package at our association office. So I put my shoes back on and hoofed it over to the office.
Well... I grabbed my package and headed back home, as I am walking up the driveway I reach for my keys. DAMN! They are on the hook inside the house. House is locked! I walk back to the office thinking we have left a key with them. Nope. Allison is in Yakima for a conference, so I can't call her. And nobody else has the key. DAMN DAMN!
So now I'm stuck outside. I ask the office for a phone book and call a locksmith. $50 later and an hour standing outside looking like a moron, and I'm back in the house.
I talked to Allison and told her this story, and apparently one of her colleagues' husband's did the same thing. Well... he did it a bit differently, but effect was the same. He decided to break into his home though. I think I went the cheaper route.
So... that sucked.
It's all about Canda isn't it?

I did that exact same thing once only left nic inside napping while the girls and I had walked a few friends to their car. They rolled out of the driveway and the girls and I went to go inside only to discover the door locked. We waited a half an hour for Nic to wake up and wander down stairs he saw us outside and figured out quickly that we were locked out, he tried and tried to open the door started to get frustrated at the mechanics of a lock. After about an hour of him trying to unlock the doors he finally figured out the front door lock and opened the door. He was our little Hero.
When I was in Florida, I did this. Unfortunatly it was a 2nd story apartment, my roommate was out of town and so was her mom who has a spare key.
However, I can tell you this...it pays knowing the fire department in our little one horse town.
Amazingly I haven't locked myself out here in Holland...all the doors automatically lock when shut.
