Travel and a Misplaced Phone

While traveling alone this past Christmas, I misplaced my phone.

I had it on the drive to the airport. But when you arrive at 0’dark-thirty along with everyone else traveling for the holiday, it can be a bit of a cluster at the terminal. While approaching, we made a move for my drop-off sooner than I had anticipated. It was dark, and it was raining, and there were cars everywhere. In order to keep it moving, I jumped out, grabbed my bag, said my goodbyes, my ride pulled away, and I ran into the abyss.
