When I left the Cincinnati airport it was a crisp fall morning. I grabbed a jacket on the way out the door. Nothing really special just a light weight jacket. I had checked the weather in LA and they were calling for cool evenings and possible rain, so the jacket couldn't hurt. I never really ended up wearing the jacket but I kept it in the back seat of the rental car.
Well, I forgot the jacket when I returned the car. I realized it when I was already at the airport. Like I said, it wasn’t really any special jacket so I just wrote it off as a silly slight of mind and a loss. Well, late that night (1:30am) I get a call from Avis. They found my coat and would be mailing it back to me! That was a real surprise to me. I figured it would go into lost and found and after 60 days of no one claiming it, an employee would get to take it home or it would be donated to a shelter someplace. It was above and beyond in my opinion for them to research who had that car and to contact me ASAP. I got the jacket in the mail today. It think I will call it my lucky jacket, it obviously doest not want to be separated from me.

I have a lucky jacket too!! How funny. It is this cheap jean jacket that I bought in Italy. I was out shopping and got cold so I bought it to keep me warm that day. I have lost this jacket at least 4 times, sometimes for months at a time. Once it ended up in someones car after a long night at a bar who wasn't even at the bar!! Once it was mushed under the cushions of a friends couch for about a month even though he had torn his house apart looking for it for it several times. Yet it always finds it's way back to me. It is out of style now and a little worn, yet I still wear it because I feel it's luck.
