We could see how many people with Xellos cels have
similar tales to tell. ;)
A couple of years ago we (husband and I) and a
friend took our kids to The Big (animal abusing)
Circus. We had to park waaaaaaay across the
parking lot(s).
I set my $1000+ digital camera on the back of our
friend's car when I got out, and then completely
forgot about it. Later when we were sitting
inside the circus I suddenly turned very pale.
I had done this in a massive parking lot, in plain
site on top of the back hood of a car that most of
the city was walking past. There was no chance I
would get the camera back. Not only was it an
expensive camera, though, there were numerous
irreplaceable pictures of my kids on the disk in
it. ={
The camera wasn't on the car anymore, of course,
but it turned out that what seemed at the moment
to be The Completely Honest Person in the World
had found it first. Not only did they turn my
camera in to security, they turned in the lighter
that was sitting next to it as well! Wow, turning
a disposable lighter in. Not like I'd even
noticed it was missing with the terror of the
missing camera and pictures on my mind.
We wished we could find out who had turned them in
so we could reward them or at least get down on
our knees and worship them for a while, but they
hadn't left a name with security.
Now if only whatever Guardian Mazoku who was with
me that day would protect me from the current
silent auction. *sigh* |
