ART: My Kingdom For A Phone!

My phone! My phone! My kingdom for my phone! If I had a kingdom… Or would it be a queendom, if I had one? Yesterday, in the midst of getting from my mom’s house to the airport to fly back to Spokane, I forgot to do a final “sweep” of the house to look for my belongings… and left my phone behind. My phone. That thing that is always with me - that I’ve never lost (unlike a bunch of people I know). I figured out what I’d done as we drove to the airport - soon enough to make plans with my mom to get it back to me, not soon enough to turn around and go back and fetch it/ Beth Bollinger , Accidental Rabbit Trails.
