I usually have one in my bag, but I don't dive with it because I don't have anyplace to put it. Have never needed one so far, fortunately.

When diving recreationally, I am usually in a nice, warm location with sunny skies and a wet suit with no pockets. If I were to somehow lose a mask permanently, which is highly unlikely (more on that later), I would follow Howard's lead and abort the dive.
If I'm in a nice, warm location, I likely paid to be there (you too, being from Colorado?), and I certainly don't want to abort any dives for a stupid reason like a broken or lost mask.
I try to have somewhere to put one, be it in a pocket or simply clipping it off to my butt d-ring.

Is that your girlfriend's picture in your avatar? Yes, she definitely has a different face shape, but it looks like that mask fits her well.I actually tend to carry a spare for me and a spare for my girlfriend(different face shapes).
