And then...
I lost my entire wallet at the Walmart, looked for it, looked again.
No cash. No plastic photos. No miniscule trivia to bollix everything up.
Went to the window for returns and such - denied.
Went home - denied.
Came back with a resolute helper, darker than the midnight of a stygian black-out.
"Ziz it?"
Perfect! One bill was mysteriously missing, but was nothing compared to the gloom before, which was beyond despair.
