YAY! I'm so happy right now. Let me give you the details...
Sometime between November 22 and 25, I lost my wallet. I couldn't find it for several days. I decided to give it a week or two to see if I could find it. But I couldn't. At about a week and a half I somewhat gave up. Ready to move on, I purchased a new school ID. From past experience I thought that mabey after a few days my wallet would surface. Since when I lose an ID, I usually find it. So I thought that it would surface eventually. This thinking is primarily because I recently found my origional sixth grade ID, which I had lost several years before. So continuing on with the story, I didn't want to give up all hope, mainly because I had my temporary drivers licecne permit for young drivers (I will refer to it as just a "permit" from now on), and I did not want to spend $25 dollars on a new one. Anyways. the day I decided that I found a $20 dollar bill on the ground. With it I purchased the replacement ID, and lunch for a day. I decided that when that had run out and I had spent all of the $20 I had luckily found on the ground, I would break and get new stuff. But my wallet contained several other things, including ID's from Sixth through present, 10th, grades. It also contained my Library Card, and Marcus Theatres movie ticket stubs from October 1998, that being "A Night at the Roxbury" which was printed on the ticket as just "ROXBURY", including The Matrix Reloaded, and the Matrix Revolutions, and all 3 LOTR movies.
Continuing, today, when I got home, I sat down and at about 3:50 I hear the doorbell ring. I think, "Now who would want me at 3:50?" So I get up to answer the door. When I go there, I see an old man, I think, he mustn't be a salesman, too old. So I decide to see what he want's by answering the door. When he opened it he asked, "Is James Wilson there?" I reply, "Which one do you want?" I ask, this is because my father has the same name as me. So he says, "Well, I've got his wallet right here." I look at it and say, in a very surprised and joyful manner, "That's my wallet!" He continues saying he found it in his yard, and since it has rained recently, it is wet, that's why he returned it in a bag. I gratefully thanked the old man and let him go his way. When I brought it back to my room I examined its contents to find that everything was still there. Only all the paper items had been funkiliciously colored, probably because of the dyed leather that my wallet is made from. So, that happened very recently, see what can happen if you are paitent?
Anyways, I had other, now less important news, but since I got my wallet back, only like a half-an-hour ago, I forgot.
Thoughts?
Below are some of the odd colors I found while pulling stuff out of my drenched wallet...
The print out stub for the Matrix Revolutions, opening day, ultascreen (a very big screen)
The funkaliciously colored card for the place where I take Martial Arts.
D.C. residents will definitely recognize this...
My weirdly colored Rebublicard, spending tomorrows money, today!
The most affected movie stub in there... |
