Last year I went to Seattle to celebrate my 30th birthday. When I packed for the trip, I re-loaded my ipod with a bunch of music to entertain me as I flew, rode buses and strolled around the city. It was great but somewhere on that trip my ipod disappeared. I feared the worst because I had been on crowded buses and in stores and thought maybe someone picked my pocket. It made me sad, but I moved on. For Christmas that year my mom gave me a sweet new ipod touch (that later was stolen by one of my devious students...). Today I was in my bedroom amidst the chaos of unpacked luggage and spied something peculiar on the floor. It was a red mesh pouch with an ipod and headphones neatly tucked inside, the same ipod and heaphones that disappeared over a year ago. I have no idea where they have been hiding, but I'm guessing it has something to do with a secret compartment in the luggage my husband was using, because I swear I searched everywhere. I feel old, but I sure am happy that now that one ipod really was stolen I still have another full of good music to listen to. Have you ever had something disappear on you, only to reappear much later?
How very cool to find your original IPod! Still sad that a student had to help himself to the other one. Perhaps he will feel remorse and just leave it on your desk someday. THAT would be a miracle! Glad you found it!
