Not Your Average Joe

I got out of my mind drunk one night and threw my purse out the window of a moving vehicle. A week later this note arrived in the mail with my belongings.

You Have Stalker Mail

Got the most bizarre stalker postcard in my mailbox today. It’s addressed for the previous tenant (*phew*), a Mr. D. Snodgrass. The front is completely hand inked with metallic craft pen and the whole thing is chunky with decoupage glue. Looks like a lot of lonely went into this.

Omitooth

My parents just bought a gas stove after several years of living with an inferior electric model. During the stove swapping, they discovered some inevitable detritus under the old stove. Their finds included a few plastic toys, a colony of dust bunnies, and this apology to the tooth fairy.

Sighting

I found this trampled and weather worn note on Eastlake Avenue on my way home from a friend’s house one night. It seems so earnest and helpful– like the kid who wrote it was concerned for the neighborhood’s safety.

Don’t Even Want This Bike Back

We found this sticking to a movie poster at our local theater. Working as an over-night janitor, I tend to find pretty random things, but this has to be the oddest. No number or address, so the kid really doesn’t want his bike back. He just wants the thief to feel his hatred.

Debauched Love

I was checking out a copy of A Million Little Pieces by James Frey at the public library and when I got home this note fell out of the book.

Pregnant Break Up

I found this inside the cover of a book that I bought in a thrift store. The book was titled “Mysteries of the Mind.”

Two Lonely American Psychos

The title page from American Psycho complete with an endearing note to a former, but apparently still swooning lover.
