When our class was taking a tour of the White House, I accidently left my scarf there. For years I was convinced that Amy Carter (that’ll date me) was using it.
Nowadays if you leave a scarf in the White House they’ll have to take it out to West Virginia in an armored caravan and blow it up. And find the owner and render her to who-knows-where for questioning.
I’ve done what Joe did, and my mom would hit the ceiling. But the truth is, these things often do turn up again. To a kid, who has probably never had to earn the money to buy a coat, the whole issue seems so unimportant … The whole “Oh, I guess” dialog sure rings true!

Keep that up Joe and Ruthie is going to start moving ahead of you!

That happens to most when weather turns nicer. Evan adults do the same Joe(little Joe of the strip). Perhaps a bully took Joe’s coat.

Usually when it’s just past jacket weather, I keep freaking I forgot it. Not that I intentionally didn’t wear it.
