My very lovely teaching assistant's birthday is tomorrow.
I forgot, but my friend reminded me soon enough to get the cheesecake we planned.
So... JRC runs to the store, picks up a cheesecake and a few items.... goes to the checkout.
I finished my purchase and then panicked because I couldn't find my wallet...
I asked the stranger behind me... "Do you have my wallet?"
He said no... 
I look all around me... panic rising and then...
Oh... it's in my backpack purse, on my back, where it is supposed to be... 
I apologized to the poor stranger behind me and slunk out of the store like an idiot.

No, an idiot would have created a screaming scene insisting the stranger behind her had it. 
Your mileage may vary... in accordance with the prophecy.
Do not back up. Severe tire damage.

I thought I put it down on the little ledge in front of me and then it wasn't there...
I don't know why, but I thought he was playing a joke on me....
Why??? No clue!!!! I need a vacation!!!

At first when I read it, I thought you were confused and thought he was FWSO or something and holding it for you

I've heard about going to the grocery store to meet people but I just don't think accusing them of theft is a good way to do it.

What would you have done if he handed you back your wallet?

DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.

That's the best part, because for some reason her brain said, the guy behind you must have it.
My mind works the same way unfortunately.
