On your way to the store at 10 am when you have to pick your friend up at the airport at 12 noon and your girlfriend is in a meeting so does not get your plea for help is NOT the best possible time to lock yourself out of the house...

However, babe that she is, E checks her messages frequently and I was only locked out for about 45 minutes. The store will just have to wait. Lots of pecans in the driveway so at least I had a snack.
