Lost And Found and Lost Again

On January 14 of this year I found an unlucky button. That same day my book bag broke, and I missed my bus so I had to walk home. I'm not sure why, but I keep the button. I soon came to realize that the button wasn't unlucky. It was the finding of said button. That brought bad luck.

After I had it in my coat pocket for a while I went to Jane's house and lost it. She found it in her backpack and lost the pencil she had in her hand. I mean it was there and then poof it was gone. She gave me the button and I lost it. I looked for it a little bit then gave up thinking no more about it.

A Few days later I was walking to gym I put my hand in my back pocket and there was my button. Then during class I got a door slammed in to me, someone tripped over my feet, I tripped over my feet, and my gym teacher realized that the shoes I was wearing had no backs. They were my only pare of shoes that even remotely look like tennis shoes, and I had been wearing then for the last several classes with out his notice. When class was over I rolled my eyes as I thought about my luck and went to lunch.

The bad luck happens soon after you find it so if you ever find a pink and purple button with LOST written on it... I'm sorry

  1. I know that you are a fan of the TV program LOST. Do you think there is any connection between your bad luck and the TV show? Perhaps one of the characters visited your school and "lost" the LOST button and the person who found it was destined to plane wrecks and other misfortunes. I recommend you definitely do not take this button with you when traveling by air especially when you fly of over the ocean.

    Just a thought. By the way, do you ever day dream about being lost on a deserted, tropical island?

  2. Ha, ha.
    Yeah, I think maybe you should get rid of it.
    You know, burn it in a fire. Take the ashes, flush it down the toilet. Then take the toilet out of the house and get a new one.
