Now That Irks Me

Most of the time when I travel on business, I always take the stance that even if I forget something, it's not really that big of a deal. After all, there's a Walmart in nearly every city I go into. Barring that, there's Dollar Tree stores, Dollar General stores, Family Dollar stores, and any other kind of story you can possibly think of.
But, what I forgot this time was my charger for my laptop.
The long and short of that is that, while I can still go to a store and buy a charger, it's just an expense I don't think is worth it.
Luckily, my computer is fully charged. And luckily my workload is small momentarily, so I don't necessarily need my computer.
That being said, it looks like I will not be able to spend additional time doing other things on the internet, such as doing MyLot.
I need to preserve my battery for work-related things.
I can still do MyLot. But, as anyone who has ever tried to do my lot on their cell phone, which is what I have to do, knows all too well that that is a pain in the you-know-what.
So, that being said, I will be here. But my time here will be extremely Limited.

@andriaperry Hmm. Didn't know you could use a Kindle for that sort of thing. Interesting. But yes, that word thing would be irritating.
Glad to be missed.

Oh yes, that would be very frustrating! I'll use my phone for mylot if I have to, but it is so much easier on the computer!

@porwest I definitely understand....I'll do a little mylotting on my phone if I have to, but not a bunch.

It's the first time I forgot to pack mine and it was very irritating. I was just happy it was my three day trip and not my four day trip, so it was only two nights of inconvenience. Luckily I did not have major work to do at night in the hotel otherwise I would have very quickly run down my battery. It worked out, if not just being a bit irritating.

I bet you never forget your charger again.
So, how did the experiment work for March?
