I was sitting in the office today when one of my co-workers came out of the break room.
"Krista," she asked, "are those your keys in the refrigerator?"
"Yes."
There was a momentary silence while everyone in the office paused to find out exactly why my keys were in the fridge. My coworker didn't suspect that I had intentionally put my keys in there, so my affirmative answer confused her. "Do they work better when they're cold?" someone asked. I really hadn't been planning on elaborating, but they all seemed to expect an answer.
I shrugged. "I have half a sandwich in the fridge left over from my lunch. If I put my keys in there, I won't forget to take my sandwich when I leave work today."
Everybody thought this was funny. Personally, I thought it was just logical. I can't leave without my keys, can I? And if my keys are setting next to my sandwich, then logically I will remember to take my sandwich.
"You see? You see?!" Chris exclaims. "This is what I have to live with every day." Pause. "And for the record, that is not logic."
