Goodbye, Old Friend

Today was an historic day. While wandering through the Glendale mall staring at people's legs, I decided to do something I hadn't done in 15 years: buy a new wallet. My current wallet, after a decade-and-a-half of wear, has so many rips and tears in it that it now resembles the rawhide from whence it came. They were on sale at Penney's (though, everything's always on sale at Penney's, so I don't know why they bother advertising sales that never stop,) so I figured, why not?

This also meant I got to clean out the old wallet, which was indeed an adventure. Among the things I found:

- Senior Pictures of eight of my High School friends (I graduated in 1998)
- The 2002 Michigan vehicle registration for my old 1991 Ford Tempo
- The 1997 AAA Proof of Insurance for my old 1991 Ford Tempo
- Calendars from my old credit union, dated 1995, 1996, and 1998
- An undated card from the Royal Oak, MI / Woodward Ave. & Catalpa Blockbuster Video store. The phone number on the back uses the 313 area code, which was changed in Oakland County in 1993.

So with this, I bid you adieu. Farewell, Wallet, my good friend. I shall drink Faygo in your honor. (If I can find any. These Californians don't know what they're missing.)
