I locked myself out of my dorm room in university constantly, out of various appartments so often it was embarassing how well I knew the super, and out of my current home more times than I can count. The worst was when I locked myself and my staff out of a work vehicle (with the keys inside) - as the supervisor, aren't I supposed to be the responsible one?<br /><br />At least you got your run in, and a little bonus speed work to boot!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07485019052088529457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37373654.post-11368674115674038962010-12-30T01:28:44.809-05:002010-12-30T01:28:44.809-05:00Oh that sucks!
