Last weekend I got off the bus at the bridge terminal in Dartmouth, in my own little world. I didn’t notice that my wallet had fallen out of my bag. I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH to the dude who was nice enough to pick it up and give it back to me. I just lost my wallet back in August and I’m so glad I didn’t have to replace everything again. Thank you! —Prone to Losing Stuff

I know the feeling since I’m also prone to losing stuff. Every time I get off a bus or leave somewhere public, I do a mini-Haka to make sure I have everything.
One time when I was younger my friends found a wallet. Didn’t give it back though: searched through it, took out all the money, went through the guys cards, laughed at him for a bit, then threw the wallet in the garbage. Not everyone’s nice!
