I'm in Belize....

Ok, I'm not actually in Belize. I'm just practicing my Maree voice. You see, today, I have misplaced my wallet. Or it has been stolen. The reason this would happen is clear. I have a thousand hours of stuff to fit into the next 24. So...what would make that even more exciting? Having to cancel my credit card. Apply for a new Driver's License. Go and find alternative measures for my trip. Yes. This is what I want to be doing right now.

Last year at this time, we were in Belize and Maree, another guest at the Dome, had lost her credit card. She sat for long periods of time on hold with Visa, punctuating that with "I'm in Belize..." in the most mournful voice.

AS I write, I have just received a call from someone at McDonalds. My wallet (sans money and credit card) has been found in a garbage can by the restaurant. What this means is that someone has stolen my wallet - quite probably out of my office. This makes my blood run cold.

I need a holiday.

So long, farewell, and have an excellent time. See you when you get back.

If we find the perp, can we rip him or her limb from limb? I feel the urge to do some damage.
