My reaction was that casual … because I lose my wallet all the time, but usually find it a day later. I’m like a 12-year-old. And I knew it wasn’t stolen, because I was watching my bank and CC accounts. Nope, just me being me.

Good call – I hadn’t thought of that. I wonder if the credit cards were confused. Well, they’re always confused. Especially when I try to use them.
You know, I figured I could’ve made it. But I panicked and called TSA. So I’m sure I was on some sort of list. Well, another list …

Was your reaction to losing your wallet really all that casual? YOu didn’t panic? Didn’t say a few well chosen expletives as you thought about the major, major hassle you were then facing? I once left my purse (in which I carry MY LIFE) in a restaurant bathroom, drove away for 1/2 hour, realized what I’d done and almost went into emotional arrest. I sped back, didn’t breath the whole time. MY PURSE WAS STILL THERE! Although there are no expressions I can come up with that will describe my relief and gratitute to the – what?–fates, since that experience I all too frequently dream that I have gone off and left my purse somewhere, and those dreams are freaking nightmares, believe me. I wish you sweet dreams from now on.

Perhaps your old wallet got jealous and came back from wherever it had wandered, saw that you’d shacked up with a new wallet, and “took care of it” with the added bonus of making you paranoid.

p.s. TSA lied. Sortof. They won’t accept an expired license, but you can get on a plane w/o picture ID. Friend did it just last week, from OAK.
