I forgot to put a watch on yesterday. I realized this the first time I checked for the time on my way to work. It was highly annoying to keep looking at my empty wrist for the time. I carry a cellphone AND a pager BOTH display the time.
I am sorry, they are not replacements for a watch. Perhaps people that think that don't check the time as much as I do?
Been there done that... the HORROR!!!! I'd sooner go a day without a phone.
Forgetting to wear a watch is a dismissable offence. Considering your upfront candor, I will impose just a suspension for this occurence.
You are hereby ordered to turn in whatever watch collection you have accumulated, and go without a watch for no less than 2 years. You can apply for a watch at that time.
That would drive me crazy! My watch is not just a way to tell time; it is my connection to the very concept of time.
When people ask me my age, I glance at my watch. When people ask me how long I've been in town, I glance at my watch. Before you ask, no, none of my watches display the year. I instinctively look at my watch anytime I think about time. If it's not there, I feel vulnerable, like when you realize you're not wearing your seatbelt or when your windshield suddenly fogs up. I can't explain what danger I feel I'm exposed to in the rare occasion that I am watchless, but then again, I don't see why that is any more irrational than our affinity for mechanical watches in the first place.
Sounds like you missed an opportunity to buy a new watch on your lunch hour!
Seriously!? YOU'RE BANNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(I did that the other day though..... Realized it in the car and turned around to get one)
Cheers,
Talk about something no longer needed....you have a pager? Are you a drug dealer or a doctor?

A man's watch is a very cherished thing. You steal that, you might as well be stealing his soul.
