SHIT!
 

I just lost my purse with all my ID, my bankcard, friends' phone numbers and $200.00 in cash. I don't normally carry rhat mount of cash, but I had to get my prescriptions and I only have a saving account - not checking. I have looked everywhere. Every likely place and every unlikely place. I've called to see if I left it at a friend's house but to no avail. GODDAMN! I may be able to get sample meds through my doctor. I think my kitty can last the month if I give her smaller portions. I am so pissed off I could cry. I hope whoever found my purse has a good time shooting amphetamines.

Thanks for letting me vent. :mad:

Sorry, Sam. :(

Shit Sam. That sucks:(


Maybe we can do a Cellar whipround. I don't much like the idea of you going without meds. And I sure don't like the idea of your kitty going on short rations:P

[eta] I know that you were just venting. But still.

Did you see if someone tried to use your bankcard?

Bummer, sorry to hear about this.

I suppose that by now you've completely retraced your steps? More importantly, did you check in the refrigerator, or in the cupboard, next to the cereal boxes?

Also, you don't have to be Catholic to ask Saint Anthony for help ... "Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony, please come around, something is lost and cannot be found."

You did also call the police to see if it had been turned in, right? and did you check the trashcans on your route? you might at least recover the bankcard and numbers if not the cash

Is it Sunday where you are?
Where have you been today?
Did you have your purse today?
When did you get the withdraw?
Where have you been since then?
When were you picking up your meds?
When was the last time you saw your purse?
What were you doing?
Is your purse underneath a pile of laundry?
Are your car keys lost too? or in your purse?

My mom loses things so these kind of questions help although now that I see them written out they seem annoying.

ps. Why the reference to amphetamine use if someone found it?

I believe she was inferring that perhaps a meth head might have pinched it and would be using their ill gotten gains to feed their heads.

Yes I know.

Non meth heads can steal too.

No one has tried to use it as far as I know. Its not like a credit card - it just allows me to draw cash from an ATM or the bank. You have to know the pin and nobody would guess it in a million years. They still have my $200.00, though. And my ID. And my Social Security card. And my proof of medical insurance. Oh, grrrr! I'll get it straightened out eventually (maybe). :headshake

Shit Sam. That sucks


That's a very kind offer, Dana. But I would feel sort of wierd taking you up on it. Maybe if every last thing fails. ;)

Wolf, I have looked in the freezer, in the trash, in the dirty laundry, etc. Nothing. I will be able to contact more people on Monday.

Skysidhe, I'm assuming a junkie had it, because a good citizen would have returned it. Where are the girl scouts when you need them?

BTW, I will be the one holding the card that says "will work for cat food." :(

right, but the bank records attempted use. If someone has tried to use it, you know a malfeant has your purse and can act accordingly.

How big is your purse? How do you normally carry it? What would distract you from realizing it wasn't with you?

I've "seriously" lost my wallet maybe 6 times. Only once was it actually "stolen"/totally gone, and even then, they never used my cards. But sometimes it took a day to track it down. Almost always those occasions have been when my handbag was unusually heavy, so I didn't notice that my wallet wasn't in it.

Look in the bathroom next to the toilet. Just saying - you may have been in a rush and....

gads that sux! I hate it when that kind of thing happens - puts a person all out of sorts!

I hate carrying a purse and this is not the first time I have lost one. This is the first time I had $200.00 in it though. I have back-tracked all my steps. The cops don't have it. No one has it. Maybe it was the victim of an alien space probe. :alien2:

If it was the end of the month, it would be quite so bad, but its disaster now. I thank God, I'd already paid my rent and utilities. That's something. I think I'll go curl into a little ball now.

Ok Sam. But if you run into a brick wall on this and find you're going without meds or your cat is having to live on what it can hunt, then let us know:P
