Phoney WFH day

Most Fridays I work from home. This was our policy even before the pandemic lockdown. It usually gives me a nice lead-in to the weekend (as well as allowing me to pack if we are going to events).
However, yesterday I got home... and realized I had left my phone in the office. Verified via the Apple "Find My" app just in case. And since my cell phone is often my main point of contact, as well as where the office phone forwards to when I am working from home, and I also didn't want to leave it there all weekend - my choice was either to spend a lot more time last night driving or commuting to and fro a third time, or going in today. I chose to go in. And my phone was sitting where I expected it to be.
However, as a mild sop to my usual schedule, I am wearing a T-shirt and tennis shoes rather than a button-down and work shoes. Not that anyone will notice, but there it is.
I should look on the bright side: I got a mildly clever header out of this.
