Chris and I were shoppin in Best Buy for CDs...then all of a sudden I coulda sworn they announced my
full name over the loudspeaker....I go to Chris, WTF? He says nah, you're hearin shit. So we go to check out and I realize I don't have my wallet...musta left it in the car. So I go back to the Jeep, and just as I'm goin to unlock the door, there's an older gentleman parked in the car next to it, that says, "Are you Erica by any chance?" I'm a bit startled, but yes, yes I am. "You might want this." And he holds up my wallet. He says he had me paged three times in the store, and had been patienly waiting in his car for me to come claim my wallet. I had to shake this man's hand...
