I have faith in humanity!

First, let's start off easy. I've been sick since just after an interview on Thursday afternoon (I think I got the job, though). Right now, I think it's just allergies/head cold, but I still feel like a big pile of crap.

So, Thursday night, Lindsay accompanied me to Ingles to get some meds. I thought that one box of Dayquil would do the trick. But it didn't.

So today, I ran out of magic pills that let me breathe. So, I made the voyage to CVS solo.

I got about 3 boxes of magic pills (I don't want to run out again!), payed, went to McDonalds (I was craving a fountain Dr. Pepper), then came back to my room.

I got back around 6 pm, because, of course, I slept all day.

I got in my room, sucked down the drink with magic pills, and preceeded to pass the fuck out. I love magic pills.

I woke up when Lindsay called me. She was heading back from work around 11pm. We decided to grab something to eat together. So, I threw on a dress, my glasses, and grabbed my cell phone. I got my keys. But I was missing my wallet thing. I have one of those "wallet" things that is just for cards. I couldn't find it. It had my license, debit card, credit card, and a few ones from going to CVS before.

But, Lindsay was waiting on me, so I grabbed my other credit card out of my REAL wallet, and ran to the car.

I told Lindsay that I knew, just KNEW my wallet was in the room. Because I remember putting the ring thing around my pinky when I got out of my car earlier.

So, we ran to Wendy's, and I decided to look in my car when we got back. But, I didn't have my keys, so I put my cell phone up to the window, and attempted to see though the glare. Nada.

I got my food from Lindsay's car and came to my room.

I tore my room apart looking for the damn thing. Nada.

I went back outside, and called Lindsay (it's sketch as hell outside at night here..I needed a friendly voice).

Lindsay was just telling me to call and cancel my cards and everything when I was rummaging through my car.

So, I'm still on the phone, going though the dash. I knew it wasn't there but thank god I looked, because as I was looking through the dash, I looked up and saw what appeared to be an apparition of my beloved wallet thing.

On the phone, all Lindsay heard was "OMG OMG OMG OMG WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?" (I was actually kind of freaked out because it looked REALLY weird). Then, I realized that it was outside. It looked like the wallet had been propped just above the wheel, at the glass of the windshield.

I JUMPED out of my car, and ran to the front, to find that someone had put it under the wiper. OMG!!!

I quickly unzipped it, and found my license, debit and credit cards and $6.

I must have dropped it just outside of my car door, because whoever the good samaritan was could tell the wallet belonged to my car.

OMG!!! I'm SOOO happy I don't have to go through the hassle of cancelling cards, and getting a new license. And, from now on, I'm going to but the keyring on my keys, like I'm supposed to.

Whoever was in front of Governor's Hall today and found my wallet I AM VERY GRATEFUL! Now, it's time to pay it forward.

To inspire you, listen to this "oldie" and go forth and do good...because I know you will...

I'm happy to hear that you have faith in humanity :)

Some people are jerks, yes, but there are some really great people out there. I'm glad one of the latter found your wallet thing!
