Hello!

On the way home from work today, as I was driving along a four lane each way road. I spotted what I thought was a wallet on the very side on the street. As usual, I had to turn around and investigate... which I did. Went by it again and sure enough, it did look like a wallet. So I turned around again and pulled in a gas station and waited until traffic cleared . Finally, when it did I pulled out and drove up, hopped out of the truck and ran over and picked up the... yes a wallet!

Checked it out while driving home, loaded with cash and credit cards, etc. When I got home I started looking for this girl's number to call her to return it. I got their number from calling 555-1212 but when I called, it had been disconnected. Bummer. There was a business card from a Apartment Search company right up front in one of the pockets so I called it and explained the situation. The lady did know the girl and called her for me.

5 minutes later, the girl calls and was very happy to talk to me. We made arrangements to meet when she gets off work in about an hour.

I'll update you after to let you know how it went.

This is the third time that I have found a wallet in the road and returned it. Can't wait to see her smile!!

Happy!

You just want to see how cute she is! :D

You're a good man, some would just take the dough and dump the wallet!

Just watch, she will be single and 38 EEE. Her dad owns Home Depot and the Miami Dolphins. He gives you a job managing their stores in Florida and free NFL season tickets. Her mom is a ninja masseus and master chef. She offers massages every night after you get off work and gourmet meals after that. Her brother is the chief brewer for Anheuser Bush and has problems getting rid of beer that is 60 days past the "born on" date. He asks you to help him out. Her sister is friends with Shania Twain and Faith Hill. They come over for barbecue all the time and they want to introduce you to them.

Well,, my bank made a boo boo and doubled my deposit Friday,, It took me half a day to get them to take the money back. Then they gave me a coffee cup for being so honest. I told them the thought of bank fraud had a lot more to do with it than honesty. ::)

Thanks for all the supernice comments everyone.
I am really honored! :)

Funny thing is... not real funny,
she never called me back???
She said she was at work and would get off in an hour and a half and she would head this way, calling me when she was 5 minutes from our agreed upon meeting point. Well, it's four hours later and no call. I pray she is ok and not having a REALLY bad day.

I'll update you all when I have some news. Might be tomorrow now.

Thanks again!!

Smiles!
