Lost

January 16, 2009 at 11:11 am (Misc)

We do not realize but technology has made us so dependent on it that its difficult to imagine life without it. Yesterday, I forgot my mobile at home after dropping Ansh during lunch hours. That resulted in me being unreachable for the rest of the day.

On top of it I had to pick someone from a point and to drop at my friend’s place. The issue was complicated due to the following.

1. I did not know the location of “someone”‘s house.
2. I did not know location of my friend’ house.
3. I did not have mobile.

So, I called my friend from landline to call “someone” to be there at pickup point in 15 minutes (my estimate to drive down there). And to make sure “someone” has a mobile so as to call my friend to tell us the way on cell. When I reached there after 15 minutes, “someone” was not there. I did not know what to do as there was no parking place around that area. I drove around in circles.

Luckily I found “someone” in my second round.
