1) train is late, scramble when it pulls in, get Natalie boarded and ourselves unboarded, forget I’m holding her cloth bag, hand off to conductor speeding by, “Give this to that lady!”

2) exiting garage, can’t find ticket, amiable agent says $50 lost ticket fee, yikes, retrace steps, no ticket, look in bag again, find secret pocket with ticket, agent blames the devil
