Suit Up!

I was bold and bought a Bluetooth wireless earpiece for my phone back during the summer. I'm not one of those folks you see wearing them everywhere they go – the mall, church, social situations – but it does come in handy while driving or walking around with something in my hands.

It worked great, but several months ago I realized it was misplaced. A cell phone you can call and it will ring and you have a chance to track it down. The earpiece is small and hides well.

I had searched every coat pocket, every desk drawer and under furniture. No luck.

This morning I attended the Cobb Chamber of Commerce First Monday event and wore my best black suit, because it's that kind of crowd. A TV character uses the phrase "Suit Up!" as advice to look, good, be ready and increase your confidence. So, I did. You have to fit in, you know.

At some point I reached in the side pocket and felt a strange shape and there was my earpiece.

There are good reasons to Suit Up; and I need to follow that advice more often.
