I had an organization board meeting on Wednesday night, and in the dark, my right-hand riding glove went AWOL and we couldn’t find it after the meeting. So I had to ride the short bit home with just my left glove. No big deal.
On Thursday, I went back by the meeting location and saw that someone had found my glove and set it on a brick retaining wall. Of course, it had rained over night, so the glove was wet and maybe dirty from wherever it had fallen the night before. So getting home, I added it to a load of laundry, and since I was doing such, added my super lightweight secondary gloves and my
Turtle Fur neck wrap; they could all use an occasional wash.
Thursday night came and a committee meeting… and oh crud, all three gloves and the neck wrap was in the washing machine, not yet in the dryer. Well, in a pinch, get a garden glove!
But, um…
- Somewhere along the line, I lost one glove from each of two pairs of garden gloves, and it was the right-hand glove missing.
- The more recent pair of garden gloves, when I got them back from the store, they had bound two matching gloves into the package instead of a pair… two left-hand gloves!
So now I had my choice of five different gloves to wear to ride to the meeting, all of them left-hand gloves. As noted, I felt like an
anti-Michael Jackson: white guy with one black glove on the opposite hand.
