I got the craziest package today... really weird.. and quite amazing.
first of all, it was weird because my mom called and said I had a package there.. i havent ordered anything, plus if i had, why would i have it mailed there
so i forgot to go get it this morning, but then on my way home I swung by and got it.
well.. fucking blew me away, but it was my wallet... from over five years ago.
One day after working at the gas station I used to work at on ONtario St. in St. Catharines, I lost my wallet and all of its contents.. credit cards, id such as licence, health cards, SIN card, debit card etc.
well today i got it back.. in perfect condition.
attached to it was a note from canada post saying it ended up in the mail.. and all I have to ask is HOW?!
how after five+ years did this return to me and who/where was it found??????
its seriously perplexing me.
i can date it back to about 2000, as I have receipts in my wallet from then, plus my licence expired in 2001, so it had to be before then.
i had no idea what was in it, so a few minutes I went through it
i think i had every ticket stub from 1994-time I lost it in there haha
here is a list of shit I now have back in my possession (yes its long, but I want to have record of this):

- a union membership card for a company i worked for in 99
- a running tab that I had going for this semi-homeless guy when i worked at the gas station. i bought him a few things and he would come in with money at the end of the month and repay me.. apparently i never got paid back for two packs of cigarettes, rolling papers, a mug and razors
