After that, I suffered a massive limelight withdrawal and was convinced I should start blogging. The media headline for the day could have read "16th like on anecdotal status update leads to one millionth mommy-blog. Massive pinning of celebratory decorations expected."
I have a weird family - both that I grew up with and that I've constructed - which lead to the basis of most of my posts. Other times it's the stupidity of those around me who raise my ire. If I'm being perfectly honest, however, it probably all comes back to me judging me. As half WASP half Irish bootstrapper I'm genetically obligated to judge myself in the harshest and most bar-room-repeatable light possible.
Recently someone likened my writing to Eat, Pray, Love but with humor - which I believe the author of Eat, Pray Love would take considerable exception to. But I'd like to consider myself a modern day David Sedaris - which I know the author would take exception to, being both still of this modern day and wildly funnier and more insightful. It's more of a goal than a comparison.
Hi Katy,
ReplyDeleteHow do you know it was stolen? Innocent until proven guilty and all that.
Imagine this scenario: Passenger misplaces Phone whilst taking a cruise; Worker finds Phone whilst cleaning up once Passenger has disembarked; Worker uses Phone.
Admittedly, Worker in this scenario makes no effort to hand in Phone to his employer but he's hardly stolen it.
Just a thought.

I"m letting the authorities work it all out Alexander, and some day I hope to be able to post everything I know here so that everyone out there can get their questions answered. There probably won't ever be a black and white version of this story as it is so crazy and unique but fortunately colorful makes for more interesting story telling.
DeleteYou could call Disney and tell them what happen. I'm sure they know how to flag down Nelson and ask him what's up with your phone.
ReplyDeleteAlexander,
ReplyDeleteKeeping something that you know is not yours when you find it is theft.
Thus, it is stolen.
here here!
Deletejust wanted to say "thank you" from everybody that has an iphone!!! Little did I know that there actually is a safety net w/my phone!lol
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree w/anonymous Katy!!! Alexander...if you are old enough to post things, obviously you should know if it isn't yours and u use it...it's probably stolen!!!!! I'm hoping that the "legalpilot"is never the captin of anything I am riding in!!! Katy good luck w/this & here is hoping Nelson looses his job and you get to go to Disney World on his dime!
The Worker must be reported so that it wont happen again.
ReplyDeleteGoogle the story. Not to worry... the worker was.
